He\u2019s associated with the planet Mars and is born from the sparkles of\u00a0 <strong>Lord Shiva\u2019s third eye<\/strong>. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino; font-size: 14pt;\">Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati gifted the six faces to Lord Murugan.

Thus, they went to seek help from Lord Shiva.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: georgia, palatino;\">Listening to them, Lord Shiva created six sparks from his third eye, which landed in the river, Saravana Poigai. Maa Parvati turned those into a six-faced child and named him <strong>Murugan<\/strong>, which marked the celebrations of Vaikasi Visakam.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h3><b><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: georgia, palatino;\">How Lord Murugan Defeated Surapadman?<\/span>\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: georgia, palatino;\">\u00a0Maa Parvati gave Lord Murugan a vel ( weapon used for killing) to defeat Surapadman, and named him <strong>Velan <\/strong>(the strong one). To restore balance in the universe, Lord Murugan fought with the Asura till the last.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: georgia, palatino;\">Lord Velan was aware of Surapadman&#8217;s illusions and that he was residing in a tree to win over him. But, finally, Lord Murugan won the battle by splitting the tree with his vel.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: georgia, palatino;\">Surapadman asked for forgiveness from Lord Murugan and transformed the tree parts into a rooster and a peacock. Forgiving him, Lord Murugan used the peacock as his vehicle and the rooster as his banner.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: georgia, palatino;\">After this battle, Lord Murugan got the name <strong>Karunai Kadale, <\/strong>which means the ocean of kindness.
