Brass Two Peacock With Vel
A beautiful brass Vel flanked by two Peacocks, which are deeply significant symbols in Hindu iconography, particularly within Tamil culture and the worship of Lord Murugan.
The Vel (The Divine Spear)
The Vel is the primary weapon and symbol of Lord Murugan. It isn’t just a spear; it represents spiritual knowledge and victory.
-
Wisdom and Power: The shape of the Vel is symbolic. The broad blade represents width of knowledge, the pointed tip represents depth/sharpness of intellect, and the long staff represents perseverance.
-
Protection: In a “Pooja” (worship) context, the Vel is often worshipped as the deity himself. It is believed to destroy internal enemies like ego, greed, and lust, as well as external negativity.
-
The Om Symbol: If you look closely at the center of the Vel’s blade, there is often an “Om” or a Thirunamam (sacred mark) engraved, signifying its divine origin.
