Incarnation of Mata Sati or Parvati
Lord Brahma after the creation of Brahmanda or Universe decided to give Shakti back to Lord Shiva. Therefore his son Daksha Prajapati performed several Yajnas to obtain Shakti as his daughter in the form of Sati. Mata Aadi Para Shakti was appeared and fulfilled his wish on one condition "that if SHE was ever hurt,She would leave the earthly home immediately". After Her incarnation as Sati or Mata Parvati, She was very much intersted to marry with Lord Shiva, one of the three principal deities behind the creation of this entire world or Brahmanda.
Once, Lord Brahma said lie to Lord Shiva about the "infinite Radience" emerged by Lord Shiva during the settlement of an argument between Lord Vishnu and Lord Brahma about "Who is the creator of the Universe". By this lie Lord Shiva cursed Lord Brahma,"there is no worship of Lord Brahma on Earth".
Marriage of Maa Sati with Lord Shiva
However, due to Lord Shiva's curse to Brahma that He would not be worshipped and also his fifth head was cut off due to his lie in front of Shiva, Daksha started hating Lord Shiva and decided not to let Lord Shiva and Sati get married. But despite all of Daksha Prajapati's objections Sati performed a great penance and got married to Lord Shiva. This marriage become a great reason to increase Daksha's hatred towards Lord Shiva.
Later, Daksha organised a great Yagna to insult Lord Shiva, he invited all the dignitaries including Lord Brahma and Lord Vishnu except Lord Shiva just to insult Him. Mata Sati expressed Her desire to attend the Yajna performed by Her father, after Lord Shiva tried to his best to dissuade her attending the Yajna. Sati, being an uninvited guest, was not given any respect at the yagna. Furthermore, Daksha insulted Lord Shiva, that he was less than to invite. After listening derogatory words used against Lord Shiva She sacrificed Her Life then and there, what She told to Daksha during Her incarnation. Sati was unable to bear Her father's insults towards Her Husband, so She self-immolated.

Destroy of Daksha's Yajna
Mata parvati is the "Ardhangini of Lord Shiva"(part of Lord Shiva) and the incident was not tolerated by Lord Shiva, enraged at the insult and the injury, Lord Shiva took the form of "Ugra Bhairava Roopa", destroyed Daksha's yajna, cut off Daksha's head and later replaced it with that of a male goat as he restored him to life. Still immersed in grief, Lord Shiva picked up the remains of Sati's body, and performed the Tandava Nritya, "the celestial dance of destruction", across the whole creation of the Brahmanda. All other Gods, frightened and requested Lord Vishnu to intervene to stop this destruction, towards which Lord Vishnu used His "Sudarshana Chakra", which cut through the Sati's bodies into number of pieces. The various parts of the body fell at several places all through out the Indian subcontinent including Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, Tibet and Sri Lanka, finally formed sites of Extreme Divine Power which are known as "Shakti Peethas" today.
