The Divine Legend of Murugan – The Warrior Son of Shiva
Murugan, also known as Skanda or Subramanya, was born from Lord Shiva’s divine spark to vanquish the demon Surapadman. Raised by the Krittikas, Murugan mastered all forms of warfare and sacred knowledge. On receiving the Vel from Parvati, he descended to battle Surapadman. In a fierce war, he split the demon into two—transforming one half into a peacock (his mount) and the other into a rooster (his emblem), thus turning evil into servitude.
Worship of Murugan is widespread in Tamil Nadu and Sri Lanka, with iconic temples like Palani, Thiruchendur, and Swamimalai honoring his glory. The Kalvettu Murugan form represents him in his most composed yet powerful stance—evoking strength, clarity, and divine direction.

Let the Kalvettu Murugan golu doll stand tall in your kolu bommai, a symbol of righteous power, inner discipline, and divine protection. Among your dassara dolls, it inspires faith, focus, and victory on life’s sacred path.
