Jai Sriman Narayana !!
Bavishya
Puranam - Ganesha Khandam describes the birth of Lord Ganesha and the
transformation of His head into an elephant.
All
the deities were happy at the birth of Lord Ganesha. All of them assembled to
see and bless the new born, Lord Shani was also one among them. Lord Shani had a curse that things which fall
under his direct sight would shrivel. Hence,
He blessed the child without keeping an eye on him. At this moment, the mother
of Lord Ganesha approached Shani and advised Him to ignore the curse and bless
the child. At this, Shani made an attempt to look at the child through the
corner of his eyes. Surprisingly, with a single glance the head of the child
disappeared immediately. Lord Krishna
intervened to fix the head of the child with the Airavatham’s head.
Jai Sriman Narayana !!
