Why was the head of Ganesha cut off by Mahadeva - The Symbolism behind the narrative

[@nityanityaViveka]

I gave this EXACT explanation to my daughters "veda vidyalaya" class a year ago when the "instructor" basically said that Shiva cut of Ganpati's head because he was mad at him. The class was upset by the explanation... Good job - you got it exactly right!

Interesting... Any symbolism of why an elephant head was chosen to replace the cut head?
