கந்த சஷ்டி கவசம்

Kandha Shasti Kavacham

The hymn invokes Lord Murugan and his divine Vel for protection. One of its distinctive features is the detailed invocation of Murugan's grace to guard different parts of the devotee's body, transforming the idea of physical armour into a prayer for complete divine protection.
