Murugan Pouting and Leaving Mount Kailash Because Ganesha Won the Mango
Lord Murugan and his brother Ganesha competed in a divine race to win a sacred mango of wisdom offered by Sage Narada. While Murugan circled the physical world on his peacock, Ganesha won by circling his parents, claiming they were his universe. Feeling slighted, Murugan renounced his home and settled in the Palani Hills as an ascetic.
