Book Summary
Tiruvarur in the Thanjavur district of Tamilnadu was the centre of Saiva and
Sakta worship from very ancient times. The Saiva cult revolved around the
Tyagaraja icon enshrined in a temple bearing the name of the image.
Interestingly, Tyagaraja is not the principle deity but a processional icon and
is in fact an amalgam of three deities--Siva his consort Uma and their child
Skanda. Tyagaraja is a Somaskanda and the first visual representation of this
composite deity can be traced to the time of Pallava rule.
