Temple History
The
Devas appealed to Lord Shiva to protect them from the terror strikes of demon
Surapanma. Lord created Muruga from six sparks from His forehead eye. Lord
Muruga fought Surapanma, destroyed and made of him a peacock for his vehicle
and a cock for his flag. This happened in Tiruchendur. Indira offered his
daughter Deivaniai to Muruga in marriage. The marriage took place in
Tiruparankundram attended by a huge number of Rishis, Devas and Gods. Lord
Muruga graces here in the wedding form. He is named Subramanya.
