The Story of Vigneshwara (Ganesa) - Savaari in subcontinent
 |
| Vigneshwara |
Ganesha is the son of Lord Shiva (Mahadev) and Parvati Devi. As per the myth happened on Mount Kailash, once Lord Shiva was outside and Parvati is going to take bath. Before going to bath, she made an idol which looked so beautiful and she deserves if it’s their son. That idol became live and she adopted as her son named Vinayaka. While Parvati was bathing the Vinayaka is guarding the house and stops Shiva entering to house.
Shiva felt frustration and began rivalry between them. Without knowing about Vinayaka, lord Shiva separated Vinayaka head from body. Parvati returned and watching the situation of son cried and narrated the whole story to Shiva. As per Brahma’s suggestion the only solution given was to attach the head of any living being which comes first while in search of and facing north. Shiva sent his troop called “Gana’s” for that purpose. They found an elephant lying down dead with the criteria.
The huge idol of Ganesha represents many good qualities to be obtained and how to be positive in life with what we have in life.
Jai Ganesha.
