What truly are the six faces?



Be it Eka-rupa bhakti or Aneka Rupa Bhakti, beyond form and appearance, it is relevant to understand the divine attributes. Legend has it that Karthikeya, popularly hailed as Arumugam – is endowed with Six Faces! ‘Arumuga Velanukku Arohara' is a very popular salutation that reverberates! The one minute video gives a glimpse of some of His well known abodes with a few Poetic lines sung at a recent satsang.
What truly are the six faces?
One face that sheds rays of Light that remove the dense darkness shrouding the world; one that lovingly showers boons on the devout; One that watches over the sacrifices and offerings made. One that enlightens the minds of Sages; One that is in battle to destroy the negative forces & One that smiles lovingly at His consort.

Gift a smile


The phone rang! The caller wished an early ‘Happy birthday’ and asked ‘How old are you now?’ I took his query with a smile. We don't talk about trees getting older, instead we say they are ‘growing.’ Perhaps we must use the same language for ourselves: We're not getting older, we're just growing.

Come to think of it, smile is 'happiness' right under your nose. The next time you smile, notice your breathing and heart rates sync up. Thiruvalluvar, the Poet philosopher goes one step further in a nice couplet “To smile even in adverse situation is an elevated mindset”

Let us use our smile to change the world; and not let the world change our smile!🙂
