Story of Ganesh Chaturthi
It is believed that Goddess Parvati created Ganesha out of clay and breathed life into him. Letting him stand guard at the door, Goddess Parvati went to have her bath.
When her husband, Lord Shiva returned, the child who had never seen him stopped him.
Ganesha did not allow Shiva to enter and finally, an enraged Shiva severed the head of the child.
Shiva cut off the head of an elephant and fixed it on the body of Ganesha and giving birth to elephant-headed Ganesha.
