Sri Valli

Goddess Valli had her heart dedicated to Lord Subramanya and would always pray with fervent devotion and love, to be with him. The Lord was moved by the highest form of love expressed by the mountain princess, and so He planned to appease Her in person by creating the perfect situation after an enactment of His lila. He assumed the form of a handsome tribal hunter and appeared before her, as if he had lost his way on chasing a deer during hunting. Valli did not recognize the stranger and promptly asked him to leave the place.
