Who broke Lord Ganesha’s tooth?

Sham S. Misri


Parshuram was a great  follower of most powerful God lord Shiva. Once he wanted to  see Lord Shiva. That time,  Lord Ganesha  was keeping a vigil and  did not permit Parshuram to meet Shiva. A fight took place between them.It is said that, Parshuram threw his weapon and broke the left tooth of Lord Ganesha. When Ganesha’s mother, Parvati,  heard about this she got upset and enraged. Then, when she came to know that Parshuram had broken the tooth of her son Ganesha, she decided to cut both the arms of Parshuram as a revenge for her son. The moment Parvati was about to do this Lord Shiva appeared. Shiva then told Parvati to hold back as Parshuram was his true devotee, a fan, and like his son. Parvati agreed, and pardoned him. Thus Parshuram was left unharmed being the devotee of Shiva.
