I have written on how the Idol of Lord Subrahmanya at Sikkal , near Kumbakonam sweats on the Skanda Shasti day as soon as he receives the Spear, Vel from his mother Parvathi, to fight against Surapadma.
The day he destroyed Surapadma is celebrated as Skanda Sashti annual festival in Murugan temples in Tamil Nadu.
I was unable to get live pictures od Murugan swaeting then.
One of the archakas of the temple sent me the pictures.
Subrahmanya Sweats.
