Shiva beheaded Ganesh, mistaking him for an intruder while in a rage, unaware of his identity.
Parvati’s grief over Ganesh’s death led Shiva to promise to restore him with a new head, reflecting his deep compassion.
The elephant head was selected because it represents power, wisdom, and the capacity to overcome obstacles, all qualities that are consistent with Ganesh's function.
Shiva sent his followers to find an elephant’s head. An elephant was located, and its head was retrieved.
The elephant's head was attached to Ganesh's body, bringing him back to life, and satisfying both Parvati and Shiva.
