coming back to the story of the sculptor,the king got angry with his actions and ordered his eyes to be dug out and to make him blind.But the worker did not lose heart by this cruel act and he somehow managed to visualize in his mind and heart the deity's figure and using this power, he carved out another beautiful figure of the deity at the place called 'En Kann'. This place is on the Tanjore Nagari bus route near Mugathanur.After this,with the grace of Lord Muruga, the sculpture got back his eye-sight and his thumb.That is why this place got the name as "En Kan' which in tamil means 'my eyes' It is therefore beleived that if a person with eye-disease prays to the deity with sincere devotion he would get relief and remedy for his illness with the blessings of Lord Muruga.
Apart from these temples,we should make a mention of a few more famous temples of Muruga.Tiruchengodu, Tirupporur,Tirumalai Tiruvirinchipuram, Kandakottam, Viralimalai,Kumara Kottam, Perumperu, Uttara Swamimalai (Delhi] are places with famous Muruga Temples.
Thiruppugazh and the scripts in prise of Lord Muruga are mostly used in Bhajans and other such occasions and the devotees get immersed in thoughts about the Lord and offer their sincere prayers with songs,Namavali etc. Lord Muruga blesses all sincere devotees with His benovelant grace.
Om! Muruga-Muruga-Muruga
Subam
