She ordered him to forbid anyone to enter. When Shiva returned home, the boy faithfully blocked the way. Shiva enraged, cut off her head. Parvati came out and saw the wklobouk he did, mourning her son. Shiva relaxed and promised to attach the head of the first creation he came across, which was an elephant. Shiva cut off the elephant's head and put her on the boy and brought him back to life. Parvati was not entirely satisfied, so Shiva further blessed the boys and declared that liceStrong praying to Ganesh before he classifies any commitment.
