Beneath the Banyan

Recently one of the monastery's many Muruga bhaktars cleaned and oiled Lord Shanmukha.

This great Mahadeva is worshiped in all parts of India and the world. Also known as Murugan, Kumara, Skanda, Shanmukhanatha, Subramanya and more. He is the God who guides that part of evolution which is religion, the transformation of the instinctive into a divine wisdom through the practice of yoga. He holds the holy Vel of jnana shakti which is His Power to vanquish darkness or ignorance.
