In Chinese Buddhism, Skanda Bodhisattva is mentioned as a warrior deity. The Jewish Star of David and the Biblical Seal of Solomon are very identical to the six-pointed hexagram that is the symbol of Muruga.

The myth is of the birth of Skanda, aka Lord Muruga and his fulfillment of the purpose of His Divine incarnation. The story commemorates the destruction of evil by the Commander of the Army of Devas, Lord Muruga.

Lord Muruga was born out of a spark from the 3rd eye of Lord Shiva which, symbolizes the rising of energy from the base of the spine to the pituitary bland, to awaken higher consciousness. His higher consciousness and power of Shakti, gave him victory over ignorance.

There are 6 particular vortexes of Murugan energy that become especially activated during Skanda Sashti. These are known as the ‘Arupadai Veedu’ or the 6 Battle Stations of Muruga.
