 According to the mythological tale prevalent in Uttarakhand, Nirankar was the first to exist on earth. The creation of the universe is considered to have taken place after he gave birth to soni and Jambu Garuda. Let us know which story is popular among the people of Uttarakhand about the creation of the universe. 

In the beginning of the universe, there was neither earth, hor sky, nor water, but only Nirankar. Parvati hi, bored of loneliness, requested Shiv ji to create the world. Nirankar created Garudi from the dirt by rubbing his right thigh and an eagle by rubbing his left thigh.

Garudi's name was Soni and Garuda's was Jambu. guru (shiva) was surprised that I should have created humans. How did these Garudi and Garuda come into being? Garuda proposed marriage to Garudi on attaining youth. Garudi sholded him and said- 'We are brother and sister and you are ugly to look at.'

Garuda started crying. Seeing him, garuda's heart melted. She drank the tears from Garuda's eyes. As a result, she became pregnant. Garuda left Kailash in grief and went far away. garuda's womb kept developing. She started looking for Garuda. 

Garuda was found, but he was angry with Garuda. Finally, he agreed after persuasion. both returned to Kaliash. Garuda could not find any place to lay the egg. She said, 'Where should I lay egg?' Garuda spread his wings.

As soon as Garuda laid the egg, it fell and broke. The earth was formed from the lower part and the sky from the upper part. The ocean was formed from the white of the egg and the land from the yolk. It is believed that in this way Nirankar created the universe.
