Murugan aka Kartikeya Swami aka Velavan aka etc etc .. belongs to the Tamil soul.
No other language can fully capture Him. Only Tamil is capable of holding Him—because Tamil and He are one and the same.
I traveled the Aarupadai Veedu—the six sacred abodes. Thirupparankundram, Thiruchendur, Palani, Swamimalai, Thiruttani, Pazhamudircholai. I stood at every single one of them. And at every single place, tears came. For no reason. Out of no sorrow. Simply standing there in His presence—I broke down.
I understand now; it was a calling.
He was calling out to me. And I was moving toward Him. We spoke to each other through tears—where words were entirely unnecessary.
I live alone.
Family has never left my side—yet family is something still left unconquered. I know when my heart was broken. I know when those I trusted abandoned me. I know who betrayed me at work. For all these years, I asked—why me? Why only me?
Now, I understand.
He didn't give me an answer—He was performing an act.
With every pain, a muscle was formed. Through every moment of isolation, a backbone straightened. With every betrayal, my feet gradually began to feel the solid ground beneath them. I was busy lamenting—while He was busy building me.
Last week felt like a command from the Almighty. Running frantically in both directions. I was worn thin. And right in the middle of it all, the tears came again. My mouth opened, my hands clasped together, and for thirty minutes, I said:
Praise be to Shiva, Lord of the Southern Land.
Praise be to Murugan, my Supreme Lord.
I offered my gratitude. I thanked Him for building me all these years.
He lives within me. He guides the way. I walk—but the feet are His. I am merely a servant. A tool to fulfill His purpose. This very realization humbled me; humility is not a weakness, it is born from the profound awareness that He resides within.
This morning, the sacred ash (Vibhuti) is on my forehead. He is inside. In this state, there can be no lies, no masks—He watches from within.
The Lord of the six abodes has claimed me as His seventh.
I have surrendered. I have become His servant. I face the world—I conquer family—with humility, and without fear.
He does not belong to me alone.
Wherever the Spear (Vel) resides—Murugan will be there.
He lives within me. Murugan thunai !!
