Murugan -Lord of Six Faces

Murugan is popularly depicted as having six faces and twelve arms. The poets like to address Him as "Arumugan" - Lord of Six Faces.

The sacred functions of Murugan as having six faces are described as thus :

        One face sheds rays of Light and removes the dense darkness shrouding the world;
        One face with gracious look lovingly showers boons on his devotees who praise Him with Love and Joy;
        One face watches over the sacrifices of the Brahmans who perform them without deviating from the strict Vedic traditions;
        One face like full moon, which brightens all the quarters of the world, lights the sages' minds to enable them to search for hidden Truth;
        One face with raging heart performs battle-sacrifice-destroy His enemies and
        One face smiles lovingly on His young consort, the pretty daughter of the hunting tribe
