The most significant incident took place when Maharishi Narada arrived
at Mount Kailash with a Mango, an elixir
of Knowledge & wisdom. The
divine couple was astounded at the advice of Maharishi Narada, the divine Mango
should be eaten wholly to obtain its merit. The celestial couple put forward a
condition before their loveliest children Lord Ganesha and Lord Subramanya. The condition was whoever comes first
after circumambulating /Parikrama of the Universe for three times would be
benefitted with the unique elixir of Wisdom. Lord Subramanya set off on his
celestial vehicle - peacock and Lord Ganesha remained helpless with his pot
sized belly. Soon Lord
Ganesha circumambulated His divine parents for three times to revive the prime
truth that ‘Father and Mother constitute the Universe’ and won the blissful
Mango. Lord Subramanya arrived at Mount Kailash after the Parikrama of
Universe and found that the Mango was already possessed by his elder brother
Lord Ganesha. It mounted
his anger; he immediately left Mount Kailash with all the commotions. Though his parents were followed him
with extreme compassion, it all ended in vain, when Lord Subramanya embarked his
journey from Mount Kailash, he passed through the southwards; he put a break of
his journey in six places which turned out Six Holy Abodes of Lord Subramanya. The six holy Abodes are Thiruthani,
Swamimalai, Thiru Avinankudi, Pazhamudhircholai, Thirupparamkundram and
Thiruchendur. While his
journey he had ferocious battle against the demons. Lord Indra was pleased at the valor of
Lord Subramanya and offered his daughter Deivayani. Thiruchender is one of the glorious abodes
where Lord Subramanya married to Goddess Deivayani.
Lord Subramanya preceded his journey towards Sri Lanka and settled
in Kathirkamam. Later, he was
married to Goddess Valli, a tribal girl and daughter of Nambirajan, who was the
chief of the tribal clan. Goddess
Deivayani symbolizes the energy of Action, Goddess Valli represents the energy
of Desire and the Spear denotes energy of Knowledge, thus they are altogether
phrased as Kriya Sakthi, Iccha Sakthi and Gnana Sakthi.
