Even till date, no maanthriga kattu can tie Him. He defeated the evil maanthrikas or maanthrigavathis which were quite rampant in Kerala. He mastered the puranas, sasthras, weaponry and martial arts. Got His head shaven at 3 years and ears pierced at 5. Do you want to know his real name? He was named Ayyan on the 28th day. His father is an Assuran and mother a human. He was born on an auspicious day with the qualities of Mummoorthigal, in the present day Sembege Cheri, Kerala. Of them, Pathinettam padi karuppar or i call Him Karuppachan is the prime. Have you spoken to any of the Karuppars before? I suggest you to ask Themselves. Sathyan 8 August 2019 at got it wrong there bro. In my view, I don't see Karuppar as a "deivam" of some sort, but more as an ancestral warrior, not different than the Marudhu Pandiyar brothers. Anyway, regardless of the mode of worship or even worship itself, it goes back to the Dravidian practice of ancestral spirit worship. It was King Thirumalai Nayakkar (one who saved Madurai and TN from Mughal/Islamic rule) foiled the plan and made him a guard at the temple to spare his life. Probably in those days, he was a local "robin hood" figure it is believed that he came from a town in Kerala called "Erumeli". Again, this goes to show the Kerala connection of Karuppan and his role during the time he was alive. Vinnith, I understand that, however, in the Azhagar kovil, the pathinettampadiyan that stands guard is Karuppusamy and through the legend rendered by the Azhagar kovil, he is referred as "Malayala Karuppar" as he was one of the 18 bandits that were sent by the Chera King to steal the kovil's murthy. Also, even in the sudalai madasamy cult, the samy adi (tranced man) goes on a "vettai" (hunt) to the sudalai (crematory place) and munches on partially burned bodies and bones.how disgusting is that? Not hinduism at all. If it was even remotely hindu, pigs, goats, chickens, liquor and cigars would not be offered to these deities.
Pandian known as "Manickam" that starred Rajkiran this specific movie was a story about how a man "Manickam" (Rajkiran) was a "kaval" for many villages and after his time, he eventually became a "kaval deivam". Back in 1996, a Tamil movie was made by K.V. Many of these "kaval deivams" vary in Tamil Nadu like Madurai veeran, Irulappan (sudalai madan), pavadai rayan, naattu rayan, ponnar & Shankar, karuppan, etc. He was a friend/assistant to Ayyanar/Ayyappan and they were legends that helped villages and the poor apparently eventually these legends became "sub-god" or "kaval deivangal" (Tamil). Karuppan or "karuppu samy" in which ever form he is depicted (santhana, sappani, sangili, sonai, etc, etc) was a man from the Kerala region during the Sangam Period. Dravidian Indians originally did not follow Hinduism, they followed tribal practices and it primarily was composed of as ancestral spirit worship.
For the most part, I disagree with this writeup.
