SKU: 4SF56113

A brass Murugan idol, especially one depicting him standing (often with his Vel or spear) and with his peacock mount, and notably on a lotus base (as seen in the image), is a significant religious and spiritual item primarily used in Hinduism, particularly in South India, Sri Lanka, Malaysia, and Singapore, where Lord Murugan (also known as Kartikeya, Skanda, Subramanya, Shanmukha) is widely worshipped. The "fine art" aspect highlights its intricate detailing and aesthetic value.

• Worship (Puja): This is the primary and most important use. Devotees perform daily puja (worship rituals) to the Murugan idol. This involves:

  • Offering prayers and chanting mantras, especially those dedicated to Murugan like "Om Saravanabhava."

  • Offering flowers (especially red or yellow ones), incense sticks, and lighting diyas (oil lamps).

  • Performing abhishekam (ritual bathing) with water, milk, honey, etc. (though for metal idols, this might be a symbolic sprinkling or a gentle wipe).

  • Offering fruits, sweets, or other food items as naivedyam.

  • Seeking blessings for courage, victory over enemies (inner and outer), wisdom, protection, success in endeavors, and fulfillment of desires.

• Symbol of Courage, Wisdom, and Victory: Lord Murugan is revered as the God of War, the divine commander of the Devas (gods), and the embodiment of youth, beauty, courage, and wisdom. He is also associated with knowledge and dispelling ignorance.
