God of the poor and toiling masses, he is helpful to anyone who worships and follows him. A rebel God in the Hindu pantheon, he drinks toddy (palm wine) and eats roasted fish. He has a hunter’s attire and carries with him a bow and arrow. His companions are dogs who wander freely in his temple. The secular nature of this God is further evident in treating every one equally, irrespective of this caste, religion, country. or creed. There are no restrictions, no dress regulations and any body can go up to the sanctum-sanctorum and pray.
