Corollary:
1. There are others from the asur family, who have been vested with similar boons by the nude God himself. Having earned one such boon to be able to burn anyone into ashes on touching, Bhasmasur tried to burn Shiv himself. Frankenstein, I must say. Hence, Shiv is one God, who never learns from mistakes. Yet a modern average Indian worships his phallus (dick).
To make matters worse, even Brahma, seated on a big lotus and holding a small one in hand, with four heads in all four cardinal directions, indulged in the same mistake of awarding boons to undeserving candidates.
2. Every such immortality boon had some minute fallacy, which means that the nude God was not very good at giving foolproof boons, yet people/demons harnessed immense amount of praise for his Excellency's phallus. God only knows what has that got to do with him in totality! So, technically, none of the boons were perfect and eventually the boons had the owner killed only for the blatant reason of possessing such a boon. It worked in the reverse direction, oops! Boomerang! No heroes received such boons of immortality, only villains did and eventually, both died.
3. No matter, what intentions you have in your mind, just by being immobile and inactive for aeons, you can appease this Phallus God, who stays nude in one of the coldest of places on earth, wearing only a tiger skin to cover the essentials (that which is worshipped) and a few intoxicated snakes around the neck to keep himself warm. But don't these reptiles hibernate in such cold weather conditions. That is not really the question here. The real question is, how on earth would a tiger skin draped God fathom the austerities being performed in inactivity at some remote ashram?
4. Having ten heads on a shoulder must have made it really difficult for Ravan to sleep, the least to say. Imagine a sleepless ten-headed immortal being who has a sibling with the capability of sleeping six months in a row. Is immortality really a boon for him? O God! And to add to that, ten different thoughts disturbing a single body. Even if he barely managed to lay down, it would be immensely difficult to put all the ten heads simultaneously go to the state of slumber. They say around 25% of body's total energy is consumed by one human brain alone during rest, for processing complexities. Just imagine a body having ten such brains, each of size approximately 1200 cubic centimeters, and with similar appetite for stored energy. And, yet the trouble of creating havoc across different empires, abducting a forsaken daughter, who happens to be someone else's wife now, building an empire of enigma. Catastrophic, isn't it? The thought itself drains me out.
5. Appeasement! Huh! Employee appeasing the boss for extension of employment! Well, Shiv gives the boon, flawed, as usual. And then develops another idealistic individual to bring the former one down. The concern is not the fact that both are devotees of the same God. The concern lies in the fact that, to make matters worse, he gifts a bow, that can be strung by only one capable of it. The idealistic individual, who did not get any boon could string the bow, while the ten headed immortal demon could not even lift it. Too magical to be true, isn't it.
