A significant work of its genre, the text offers a distinct portrayal of Lord Shiva, grounding him in the soil of rural Bengal. The narrative follows the deity through domestic and worldly troubles, with sections dedicated to শিবের কৃষিকর্ম (Shiber Krishikarma) and the quarrels sparked by নারদের কৈলাস দর্শন (Narader Kailas Darshan).
