Abstract

The Sangam literatures were devotional literatures like the Thirumurai. However, the people of the Sangam period were dominated by theism. The worship of the Lord by various names can be known through Sangam literary texts. However, the Tamil people have worshiped Lord Muruga from ancient times. The messages about Lord Muruga are found in abundance in Paripadal, Thirumurukatrupadai and other Sanga texts. This study is designed to explore and understand these.
