When the formless energy of Shiv takes a form, It is the Panchamukhi Shiv with five faces which stands for the five aspects of creation and destruction. In the Linga Purana, the five faces of Shiv is said to represent the fivefold aspect of creation, five directions, five elements and the five senses. The mantra “Na Ma Shi Va Ya” has come from the five faces of Shiv.
According to the Skanda Purana, the Bilwa (Bel) tree grew from the sweat droplets of Parvati which fell on the Mandrachal mountain. From there the Bel tree emerged. Hence, it is believed that the Goddess resides in this tree in all her forms.
She resides as Girija in the roots of the tree, as Maheshwari in its trunk, as Dakshayani in its branches, Parvati in its leaves, Katyayani in its fruit, and as Gauri in its flowers. Therefore as Parvati resides in her various forms in this tree.
