Subramanyar, also known as Murugan and Karthikeya, is the son of Lord Shiva and the Goddess Parvathi. His brother is Lord Ganesha. Subramanyar is popularly worshipped in Southern India, especially in the Indian State of Tamil Nadu. Lord Subramanyar was said to be one of the most beautiful looking and handsome gods. He is often described as exuding boyish charm, and yet, with a serious face. Often depicted as a calm and serene character, He had a face that resembled the radiance of the full moon. The vehicle He rides is a peacock called Paravani. This peacock was originally a demon called Surapadman. Provoking Subramanyar in combat, the demon took the form of a tree. The tree was cut in two by Subramanyar's powerful Vel. One half of the tree became a rooster, which He made His emblem, and from the other half, a peacock emerged, which He made His mount. Kartikeya iconography shows him as a youthful god, dressed as a warrior, carrying the weapon called Vel. It is a divine spear, often called sakti, signifying the Kundalini shakti. He is sometimes depicted with many weapons including: a sword, a javelin, a mace, a discus and a bow although more usually he is depicted wielding the sakti or spear. His vahana (vehicle, mount) is a peacock. He has either one head or six, depending on the region or artist. Support Vedic Futura ! Check Out Our Awesome Blog and Website!
