Adi vinayagar- "Nara Mukha" Vinayaka The mother goddess thought of creating a gate keeper in her private chambers. She scrapped turmeric, kumkum and other scent powers from her body, and moulded them in the form of a child, and gave life to the form, to be a gate keeper. The form was human face one, with eyes, ears, nose and tongue as in a human (and a god). The boy who would be called as pillaiyar – the cherished boy that she created from her own body – she kept him as gate keeper and went for a bath.
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.
The valorous lad's head was chopped off by Nandi deva, and the lad lay lifeless.
Parvati's grief knew no bounds, and Shiva sought to assuage her, by promising to bring the boy to life.Attachments:
