Description:
The Significance of the Seval Kodi to Lord Murugan : There was once three
evil brothers, Soorapadman, Simhamukha and Tarakasura who captured all the
three worlds, heaven, earth and hell. They then torture all the devas, the
heavenly immortals, to do medial task. The Devas were unable to handle their
torture and complained to Lord Shiva. Lord Shiva opened his third eye to create
a son to kill these evil demons. This son is none other than Lord Murugan. With
his huge army, Lord Murugan camped at Thiruchendur. The Lord sent his
lieutenant, Veerabhu, to Soorapadman and asked to release the Devas. Soorapadman refused and for 6 days an intense
war took place. During the first 5 days of the battle, Soorapadman’s brother
and all the other demons were defeated. Soorapadman continued to fight bravely
and at last realized that his final opponent was none other than Lord Murugan
himself. Therefore, he fled the battle field and took the form of a Mango
tree. Lord Murugan realized this and
with His lance broke the frightful mango tree into two. The two broken pieces
immediately transformed into a might rooster and a peacock. Henceforth, Lord
Murugan took the peacock as his vehicle and the rooster on his banner. To commemorate this win against evil, the
famous Thiruchendur murugan temple was built. Every year, the Soorasamharam
festival is grandly welcomed in this shrine. In a six days festival, a ritual
folk performance recreating the killing of the demon by Lord Murugan will take
place. The Thiruchendur Murugan temple is also part of the six abodes of Lord
Murugan mentioned in ‘Thirumugaatrupadai’, a classical Tamil poem written by
Saint Nakkeerar. Watch the interview below with Kartheges Ponniah, a lecturer
from Sultan Idris Education University (UPSI) as he discusses more about
Thirumugaatrupadai.
