ALEXIS LEOGARDO FROM MANILA VISITS WORLD FAMOUS BATU CAVES WITH TOUR GUIDE DATO KEE HUA CHEE, MAID MARISSA AND BODYGUARD HASBULLAH AND THOROUGHLY ENJOYED HERSELF IN FUN COMPANY! BATU CAVES TOOK OVER 450 MILLION YEARS TO COMPLETE THOUGH BATU CAVES TEMPLE TOOK ONLY A FEW YEARS TO BUILD IN 1892 WHEN A RICH INDIAN TRADER THAMBOOSAMY PILLAI STARTED BUILDING A TEMPLE INSIDE THE 300 FEET HIGH MAIN CAVERN. CLIMBING UP WAS A PHYSICAL CHORE AND WAS SEEN AS A FORM OF DEVOTION AND EVEN PENANCE AS THE WOODEN STEPS WERE COMPLETED ONLY IN 1920 FOLLOWED BY THE FAMOUS CONCRETE STEPS TODAY. THE 272 STEPS WERE PAINTED VIVID COLORS LAST AUGUST 2018 WHICH WAS EXACTLY MY TASTE AND FORM A TAPESTRY OF FABULOUS, HAPPY HUES AGAINST THE BACKDROP OF GREEN LIMESTONE HILLS CLOAKED IN VERDANT GREENERY. THE STATUE OF LORD MURUGAN IS THE TALLEST IN THE WORLD AT 140 FEET AND WAS UNVEILED IN JANUARY 2006 AFTER A MAJOR RE-ENERGISATION PROGRAMME LASTING 3 YEARS. OF ALL MURUGAN TEMPLES, THE MOST IMPORTANT ARE 6 IN INDIA AND 4 IN MALAYSIA.

MURUGAN OR KARTIKEYA IS THE GOD OF WAR AND SON OF PARVATI AND SIVA AND BROTHER OF THE FAMOUS ELEPHANT HEADED GANESH. MURUGAN IS USUALLY DEPICTED AS A FLAWLESSLY HANDSOME YOUNG MAN IN THE PRIME OF LIFE AND ASSOCIATED WITH PEACOCKS, EITHER SITTING ON ONE OR NEAR THEM. HE IS OFTEN SHOWN WITH 1 HEAD BUT CAN BE 6 HEADED TO DENOTE THE 6 GODDESSES OF THE PLEIADES GALAXY WHO LOOKED AFTER HIM AFTER HE WAS BORN. MURUGAN AS THE PHILOSOPHICAL WARRIOR GOD TEACHES DEVOTEES TO BE ETHICAL, MINDFUL AND GENEROUS. HE DESTROYS ALL FORMS OF EVIL COMPRESSED IN THE DEMON TARAKA
