Lord Indra got upset with Farmers, he announced there will be no rain for 12 years & you won’t be able to produce crops. Farmers begged for clemency from Lord Indra , who then said , Rain will be possible only if Lord Shiva plays his Damru. But he secretly requested Lord Shiva not to agree to these Farmers and when Farmers reached Lord Shiva he repeated the same thing that he will play Damru after 12 years. Disappointed Farmers decided to wait till 12 years. 

But one Farmer regularly was digging, treating & putting manure in the soil & sowing the seeds even with no crop emerging. Other Farmers were making fun of that Farmer . After 3 years all Farmers asked that Farmer why are you wasting your time and energy when you know that rains will not come before 12 years. 

He replied “I know that crop won’t come out but I’m doing it as a matter of “practice”. After 12 years I will forget the process of growing crops and working in the field ,so I must keep doing it so that I'm fit to produce the crop the moment there is rain after 12 years.” 

 Lord Shiva was listening to his argument & Goddess Parvati praised his vision before Lord Shiva and said “You may also forget playing the Damru after 12 years!” 

The innocent Lord Shiva in his anxiety just tried to play the Damru, to check if he could still play the Damru and hearing the sound of Damru immediately there was rain . The farmer who was regularly working in the field got his crop emerged immediately while others were disappointed. It is the practice that make you perfect.
