At that time the fate of those women were to undergo a change. Because of that they lost their cool and left that place without giving due respect to Ambal. Lord Shiva cursed them for having disobeyed his order in not meeting the Devi. He said “O” Women, Since you disobeyed my order and did not meet the Ambigai out of respect, you will look a withered tree without any leaves “

They remained there as stone for one thousand Deva years . They were covered by the seeds of banyan tree. When the time came for the curse to be removed the stones got themselves exposed. By the grace of Lord Shiva who was also there they got their curses nullified and went back to their own places.

They requested Uma devi to pardon them and made a request with the eight mystic powers also. Lord Shiva told them “O’ Women, Siva yogis will not like to obtain such eight mystic powers. I will tell you the fame of those mystic powers. Please know it.” And then he taught  them all about the eight mystic powers.
