Long ago, in the celestial abode of Mount Kailash, a powerful demon named Surapadman waged a terrible war against the Devas. He had received a boon that made him nearly invincible—he could not be killed by any being other than the son of Lord Shiva.

The river Ganga carried these sparks to a sacred lake called Saravana Poigai , where they transformed into a divine six-faced baby— Lord Skanda (also known as Murugan, Kartikeya, or Shanmukha). skanda guru kavasam lyrics
