In Hindu mythology, Lord Ganesh is traditionally believed to have been created by Goddess Parvati, the consort of Lord Shiva. According to the legend, Parvati fashioned Ganesh from clay and breathed life into him to guard her while she bathed. When Shiva returned and did not recognize Ganesh, a confrontation ensued, leading to Ganesh's iconic elephant head after Shiva accidentally decapitated him. This story symbolizes themes of creation, protection, and transformation in Hindu culture.
