Valli Teyvani Samedha Subrahmanya Swami |
Subramanya has two consorts: Valli and Devasena. The former is the daughter of a humble chieftain of a race given to agriculture and woodcraft. The latter is the daughter of Indra, the king of Gods.
This is just to show that God does not make any distinction between the humble folk and the elite. He loves both equally.
Alternatively, this can also mean that the true leader of a society will espouse agriculture and industry on the one hand, and the armed forces on the other, in order to develop the society as also to protect it.
The lance of dazzling brightness is the weapon with which the Devasenapati vanquished many an enemy. It actually stands for knowledge and wisdom with which all the ugly demons of ignorance can be destroyed.
