In Hinduism, Sanat Kumara is sometimes called '''Skanda''', or '''[[Special:MyLanguage/Karttikeya|Karttikeya]]''' the son of [[Special:MyLanguage/Shiva|Shiva]] and Parvati. Karttikeya is the god of war and commander-in-chief of the divine army of the gods. He was born specifically to slay Táraka, the demon who symbolizes ignorance, or the lower mind. Karttikeya is often depicted holding a spear, representing illumination. He uses the spear to slay ignorance. In Hinduism, stories of war are often used as allegories for the internal struggles of the soul. | In Hinduism, Sanat Kumara is sometimes called '''Skanda''', or '''[[Special:MyLanguage/Karttikeya|Karttikeya]]''' the son of [[Special:MyLanguage/Shiva|Shiva]] and Parvati.
