![]() It is stated that Surapadma conquered and ruled the universe for 108 Yugas, or 27 Chaturyugas. The story revolves around Lord Muruga's divine leelas, and his defeat of the asura Surapadma, who is the son of Kaashyapa (not Kashyapa) and Maya, and is an elder brother to Simhamukha, Tarakasura and Ayomukhi (very similar to Ravana, Kumbhakarna, Vibhishana and Surpanakha). It was written by Kachiyappa Sivacharyar as the Tamil equivalent of Skanda Purana, and Muruga himself gave him guidance for this task. Kandha Puranam is a very revered Tamil scripture that talks about the glories of Lord Muruga (or Kartikeya).
