Ainsi, dans le Śrī Liṅga Mahāpurāṇa, dans la section Pūrvabhāga, commence le cent-quatrième chapitre, intitulé «Récit du mariage de Pārvatī». Les sages dirent : «Comment naquit Vināyaka, au visage d’éléphant, Seigneur des Gaṇa ? Et d’où vient une telle grandeur de sa puissance ? Ô Sūta, tu es apte à le dire ici.»
