The legend about Lord Ganesha having

preference over all other gods establishes his sharpness of intellect.

There was a keen competition amongst all gods to gain the

first place of worship amongst the laity.

It was decided that the god who would return first after traversing the

whole universe shall be declared the winner.

All gods and goddesses ran on their fast vehicles. Lord Ganesh with

his pot-bellied body and mouse's vehicle could never hope to compete.

He took a round of his parents, shiva and Parvati, and just sat

there at the starting point.

He was declared the winner because one who goes round his parents and

touches their feet traverses the whole universe.

Since then Lord Ganesha is always worshipped first and every other god

takes a back seat..

Another legend says that

when Parvatiji saw an elephant's head being fixed on her son's body,

she burst into tears and could not be soothed.

To pacify her Brahma announced that amongst the worship of all the

gods, that of Lord Ganesha should forever bear the first preference
