When Lord Shiva tried to enter, Ganesha prevented him, leading to a fierce battle where Shiva severed Ganesha's head. To console Parvati, Shiva replaced Ganesha's head with that of an elephant, making him the chief of his Ganas (attendants) and granting him the boon that he would be worshipped first among all deities, and no auspicious work would begin without his invocation.
