Why is lord Ganesha called as shakti putra?
Devi Parvati created him by secret tantric practices and only she created him hence he has the complete essence of shakti and is known as shakti putra or son of shakti or power and strength.
Why did she create a son not a daughter?
Because she wanted a bhairav to protect her when she tended to her personal needs. Please do not question with your feminist mind as to why not a girl. A bhairav has the natural attribute to protect. She invoked that aspect of bhairav in Ganesh. This very aspect is also the essence of being a man.
So why did Lord Shiva cut his Ganesha head?
Just to remove ahankaar arrogance of being shakti putra . When we get too much shakti or power what happens ? We become arrogant and it goes to our head ! We think we are everything so much so that you can’t see or recognize the param Shiv in front of him the essence of his chetana , shiv tattva in him was clouded due to his arrogance , Bhagwan shiv removed it and replaced it with the Union of shiv and shakti symbol . that was the only reason
Bhagwan shiv removed it and replaced it the Union of shiv and shakti symbol
That’s why in front of Shiva, Guru always lower your ego else he will lower it by any means !
So don't let anyone question why your God was so ruthless that he had to cut his sons head due to his anger issues. He is shiv - Natural kalyankaree as in benevolent in nature he cannot do anything with a bad intention towards anyone.
