According to the second story, Parvatiji made Ganesha sit at the door and started taking bath. Meanwhile Shiva came and started entering Parvati's house. When Ganesha stopped him, an angry Shiva beheaded him. This Ganesha was created by Goddess Parvati from a mixture of sandalwood. When Parvatiji saw that her son was beheaded, she became angry. To appease his anger, Lord Shiva placed the head of a baby elephant on Lord Ganesha's head and he came back to life.
