Today, we will see an anecdote about His destroyer frame, where He killed an evil spirit and spared the Deities from trouble.

Once, there was a devil named Sindhurasur. He was ground-breaking and had an immense armed force. There was nobody who could crush him and his intense armed force. He used to inconvenience Deities and cause impediments in the contemplation and conciliatory flames of Sages. The Deities and Sages were tired of his badgering and chose to slaughter him; however the inquiry was, who will execute such a great devil ? Along these lines, Sage Parashar went to Shri Ganesh and asked for Him to execute the evil spirit.

Shri Ganesh mounted on his mouse and alongside His armed force left for the fight. The sentries of Sindhurasur saw that Shri Ganesh was drawing closer to assault Sindhurasur and they, thusly, instantly cautioned him. Sindhurasur was exceptionally amazed to realize that somebody was coming to battle him. He was delighted by the way that a youngster like Shri Ganesh had come to battle against him.

Meanwhile, Shri Ganesh remained before him and called him for a fight. Exactly when Sindhurasur was going to pound him, Shri Ganesh demonstrated His marvel. He expanded His size to a few crease to that of the evil spirit. He lifted Sidhurasur and began beating him. Sindhurasur was soaked in blood. Watching this, his armed force fled away. Shri Ganesh's body ended up red as it was splashed in Sindhurasur's blood. In this manner, Sindhurasur was murdered. Realizing that infant Shri Ganesh had murdered the intense Sindhurasur, all Deities commended and acclaimed him.

Much the same as Sidhurasur, there was another devil named Angalasur. Angalasur used to discharge fire from his mouth and any individual who went in close vicinity to his sight was roasted to death. His eyes excessively utilized, making it impossible to transmit fire and his mouth discharged smoke. Everybody was extremely frightened of him.

Angalasur consumed numerous woods, fields, creatures, winged creatures and people and transformed them into fiery debris. Angalasur realized that he had executed numerous evil spirits. In this way, so as to look for exact retribution on Shri Ganesh, Angalasur began scanning for him.

One day Shri Ganesh moved toward Angalasur and expanded His size to triple to that of Angalasur. Watching this, the evil presence was terrified.
