Lord Ganesha is a Hindu God. He has the head of an elephant and he is the son of the Goddess Parvati and Lord Shiva.

Ganesha the elephant faced God is one of the most popularly worshipped forms of divinity - as a remover of obstacles and the embodiment of good luck, in the Indian system of beliefs and practices.

Ganesha is regarded as the son of Shiva and Parvati (Shakti), the Universal parents.

According to the legend Parvati, created a beautiful boy from the dirt of her body, treated him as son, and gave him the responsibility of guarding her home. Shiva, upon returning home was affronted by this lad, hitherto unknown to him. The lad, true to his word to his mother, refused to let Shiva into his own home.

Shiva thus, enraged chopped off his head. Parvati in her moments of grief ask him to restore his head. Shiva could not find the head, so he replaces the head with that of an elephant head.

Most noteworthy point here is Parvati created Ganesha out of the dirt from her body. Shiva replaced the head with an elephant head. Elephant represents wisdom.

The impurities from woman's body are the instincts, which a woman gives to her child. However, father gives the child wisdom or so- called human nature.

Ganesha stand for surrenderity .He is son of Shiva =pure soul ,means if you want Soul experence ,surrender to Guru . Cut your head means Ego and put elephant head because he has big ear means listen to GURU well.
