Ganesh, the elefant God.

Kutly Beach, 13-01-1995. Kristoff is really getting off his racker. The fool is trying to mobilize everybody around Kutly Beach to come along to Tibet in a hired bus and kick the occupying chinese forces out...Yeah, free Tibet and all that...It will take more than him and his army of stoned, chilam smoking idiots!!! To be away from it all I walked back to Gokarna. A holy village dedicated to Lord Ganesh, Lord Shiva`s son also know as the elefant God because of his elefant head no doubt. Popular believe in India has it that when Lord Shiva came back home from one of his grave yard expeditions he found another man in bed with Parvati, his wive. Not realising his son might have grown up a bit during his absence, he cut his head off - Lord Shiva is known for his terrible temper!!! He could only bring his son back to life by beheading the first living being he would meet after leaving the house...Sure you can guess what living being that was!!! The alternative was living with Parvati`s wrath for ever. Parvati is also the godess of war so you can understand Lord Shiva did not fancy the alternative.
