Muslims / Buddhist / Christian Worship / More

It is interesting to note that Muslims too offer prayers to Murugan
at this place, though not at the sanctum sanctorum as the Hindus do
to the Diety of Lord Subhramanya. The Muslims offer their special
prayers at a special niche set in the wall at the back of the
sanctum sanctorum. Muslims call the Lord as Palani Baba

In contrast to the Murugan of South India--a purely Tamil God,
in Sri Lanka He is revered by Tamil Hindus and Sinhala Buddhists,
who both possess lore on Murugan and His abode at Kataragama.
