In Hinduism, the stories of the divine often contain profound lessons for spiritual seekers. In the story of Skanda, his behavior is that of a typical teenager, which arises out of inexperience in the world.

However, Ganesha knew his actions were incorrect, but he still couldn't stop himself due to his bloated ego. This happens when someone has bookish knowledge but not enough maturity to deal with it. If this happens, it is a warning that painful ego-burning (cutting off the head) is about to happen.

The elephant's head symbolizes calm and elegant wisdom, as opposed to bookish knowledge. A person with such a spiritual mindset becomes worthy of worship: a true spiritual leader.

Just some insights there for your book. 😊 Loads of love and respect, dear one. 💕🙏🏼
