The divine commander-in-chief or Senani of Indra’s Devasena, Murugan, or Karttikeya appears in this beautiful granite statue as a young Lord.
Tripunda, crown, ornaments, and a short dhoti worn by warrior Hindu gods are the ensembles of Murugan, who stand with one hand on his waist and the other raised in Abhaya, the gesture of fearless.
The beautiful fierceness of Murugan is mirrored in the attitude of his mount, the Mayura. The enchanting bird grips serpents, its mortal enemies in its beak and claws, a representation of the ferociousness of Murugan, a deity born to annihilate demons and establish order in the cosmos.
