Story of Lord Kartikeya and the Six Mukhi Rudraksha
According to Hindu scriptures, Lord Kartikeya originated from the spilled seed of Lord Shiva to destroy Tarkasur. The heat emanating from this seed was so great that it was given to Agnidev for safekeeping. Even he could not hold it for long and handed it to Ganga. The waters of Ganga started evaporating, and she deposited this seed on the Sharavana reeds. The seed split into six children and was taken care of by the six Krittikas. The six children cried loudly until Goddess Parvati came to see them. She combined them into one child. At her glance, the six-faced child became calm, and his faces unified into one. This child was trained by Shiva, Shakti, Brahma, Saraswati, and Lakshmi.
He then fought Tarkasur and killed him. Once when Lord Shiva asked Kartikeya the meaning of Om, Kartikeya replied that only if he is given a place higher than Mahadev, he would impart this secret. By revealing this hidden secret in Lord Shiva’s ears, much to the delight of Goddess Parvati, young Skanda was lovingly given a place on Lord Shiva’s shoulder. Kartikeya is the energy that gives meaning to the strength of OM (Pranava).
