Brass Om Vel :

• The Vel (Lord Murugan’s Spear):
  • Represents $\text{Jnana Shakti}$ (the Power of Divine Wisdom), courage, and the sharp clarity needed to pierce through ignorance ($\text{Avidya}$).
  • It is the divine weapon given to Murugan by his mother, Goddess Parvati, to vanquish the $\text{Asura}$ (demon) Surapadman, symbolizing the victory of $\text{Dharma}$ (righteousness) over evil.
• The $\text{Tripundra}$ (Three Horizontal Lines):
  • This mark is the quintessential symbol of Lord Shiva, Murugan’s father. Its presence on the Vel signifies the direct connection between the son’s power and the father’s ultimate reality.
  • The three lines traditionally represent the Three Bonds (Malas) that bind the soul:
  • Worshiping the Vel with the $\text{Tripundra}$ mark is a spiritual affirmation that Lord Murugan’s wisdom ($\text{Vel}$) is powerful enough to burn away all three bonds, leading the devotee toward liberation ($\text{Moksha}$).
