There are many stories in the scriptures related to Shivas Third Eye. Once, Goddess Parvati playfully closed Lord Shiva's eyes with her palms. The universe was engulfed in darkness. So, Lord Shiva had to open His third eye to provide light and energy to the world. The heat from the third eye caused Maa Parvati's palms to perspire. And as the drop of perspiration fell on the ground it transformed into a child. The child was called Andhaka and was adopted by a childless Asura devotee of Lord Shiva. Andhaka grew up not knowing his true origin. He obtained a boon from Lord Shiva that he would die only when he aspires for a women he should never aspire for.
After acquiring the boon, Andhaka set out to conquer the world. During his venture he came across Parvati and was smitten by Her beauty. He chased Her and was killed by Lord Shiva. This story also depicts the dark side of the third eye which rejects all worldly desires because the desires are also important for the survival of a human being. Without desire the world will come to stand still. There would be no reproduction, no regeneration. Hence, the third eye of Lord Shiva has a great significance and is s source of great knowledge for humankind.
