If Lord Shiva escapes someone, then you will be amazed to hear him. But it is true that Mahadev was forced to flee from five brothers, not only did these brothers forced Mahadev to hide their identity unless they were made bulls. If you are not sure, then we are telling you the story of Mahabharata and such a proof, after which you will agree that the five Pandavas had forced Lord Shiva to become a bull.

The issue was at that time when the Mahabharata war had ended and five Pandavas were reviewing the war with Lord Krishna. Krishna told Pandavas that though you have been victorious in the war, you have become a part of sin due to the killing of the master and your brothers and sisters. It is impossible to get rid of these sins, on this, Pandava asked for a solution to get rid of sin.

Krishna said that only Mahadev can liberate these sins, so go to the shelter of Mahadev. When Mahadev came to know that Pandava was coming to him, he became cautious. To prevent the Pandavas from coming in front of them, they started changing the disguise because Mahadev was angry with the Pandavas for the killing of the brothers.

Pandavas also came to know that in every situation they would have to get Mahadev and find out the path to their liberation. Pandavas, after Mahadev, reached Kedarnath. Mahadev saw that Pandav came to Kedarnath, then he was looking for a solution to save him; only then his vision went into the herd of animals and he joined the herd of animals to hide his identity.

It was difficult to identify Mahadev with the flock of animals for Pandavas. Mahabali Bhim then stood between two mountains. All the animals started getting out of Bhima's legs. All the animals escaped under the feet of Bhima, but Mahadev was feeling uncomfortable going out of the feet and he stood there.

What was just, Pandavas recognized Lord Shiva, Bhima caught the bull's hip as soon as possible. Mahadev was forced to appear and to see Pandavas' hard work; they had to get rid of sin. Even today, the evidence of this incident is present in the form of a hip in the Shivlinga of Kedarnath.

When Shiva was involved in a bull as a bull, he pulled out a part of his head in Nepal, which is worshiped as Pashupatinath. In the arms of Shiva, in Tungnath, Mukund Rudranath, Nabhi Madmeshwar and Jata Kalpeshwar, all these are jointly known as Panch Kedar.
