Lord Rama, the seventh avatar of Lord Vishnu, was a prince of Ayodhya. He was exiled to the forest with his wife, Sita, and brother, Lakshmana. Sita was kidnapped by Ravana, the king of Lanka. Rama and Lakshmana fought a great battle to rescue Sita. With the help of Hanuman, the monkey god, Rama defeated Ravana and rescued Sita.
Lord Shiva, the destroyer of the universe, was meditating in the Himalayas. Parvati, the goddess of love and beauty, was born as a princess in the kingdom of the Himalayas. She fell in love with Lord Shiva and wanted to marry him. However, Shiva was not interested, and Parvati had to undergo various trials and penances to prove her devotion.
Lord Ganesha, the remover of obstacles, was born to Goddess Parvati. She created Ganesha from the dirt and dust of her body and breathed life into him. Ganesha was tasked with guarding the entrance to Parvati's home. When Lord Shiva returned home, Ganesha refused to let him in, not recognizing him. Shiva, in a fit of anger, beheaded Ganesha. Later, when Parvati was grief-stricken, Shiva sent his attendants to find the head of the first living being they encountered, which was an elephant. They brought back the elephant's head and attached it to Ganesha's body, bringing him back to life.
