The vinayaka god is one of the cutest god with his elephant face. His parents being Lord Shiva and Parvati ji. Below we share with you 6 very interesting Indian mythology facts about Ganesha.
- Ganesha is born: One day Parvati ji wanted to take a bath however there was no one to guard her. So Parvati ji created a young boy with sandal wood paste and the elephant god was born.
- Elephant Head: Lord Shiva after his deep meditation returned to the house and Ganesh ji refused to allow Lord Shiva to enter the house. Lord Shiva got furious and cut off Ganesha’s head. Later Parvati ji asked Shiva to bring Ganesha back to life. Lord Shiva placed the head of an elephant (the first thing the devas found facing north) and brought him back to life.
- Broken Tusk: While Lord Ganesha was guarding his father, Parashurama wished to see Lord Shiva. Unable to let Parashurma enter the house, he got angry and threw an axe at Ganesha which broke this tusk. Lord Ganesha didn’t stop the axe as it was given to Parashurama by Shiva.
- For New Beginnings: God Ganesha is first one to be worshiped to bless couples (the first invitation card goes to him), and at all new happenings and every auspicious occasion.
- Full of Wisdom and Life: Lord Ganesha in a bet with brother Kartikeya challenged each other that who could go around the world 3 times the fastest! Kartikeya’s vehicle is peacock and he being strong as compared to Ganesha. Ganesha’s vehicle is a tiny mouse and so he just when around this parents 3 times as Lord Shiva is symbolic of the world. Lord Shiva was very impressed with this wisdom.
- Best Qualities: Lord Ganesha is too fond of eating and that is why he is one of the cutest gods with a paunch. We agreed to assist Vyasa due to his writing skills however Lord Ganesh asked him to explain the difficult episodes to help him understand the details of Mahabharata.
