What is the personality type of murugan/kartikeya? Which MBTI personality type best fits? Personality type for murugan/kartikeya from Hinduism and what is the personality traits.
murugan/kartikeya personality type is ISTP, so i always find myself in situations where i have to think fast, analyze the situation, and come up with a solution. in short, i'm a thinker. as opposed to the kartikeya/amman/murali personality types, who are generally extroverts (ISFP), and can be more spontaneous and impulsive (ESTP), and can sometimes get carried away and forget the overall objective.
as an ISTP, i find the whole concept of karma to be quite fascinating. i've never been much for religion, but i've always had a pleasant interest in it - on the whole. there's no one right way to look at things, but it's nice to have a framework within which to do so.
the only thing that i remain skeptical of is the existence of gods or higher beings in general. i'm not saying this because i don't believe in gods or whatever - far from it. i'm just skeptical because the whole concept of gods operating on the plane of some sort of higher power seems too logical and far fetched to me. that's not to say that i do not believe in higher beings - i've just never seen enough evidence to convince me otherwise.
Kartikeya (Sanskrit: कार्त्तिकेय, IAST: Kārttikeya), also known as Skanda, Kumara,[4] Murugan and Subrahmanya, is the Hindu god of war.[5][6][7] He is the son of Parvati and Shiva, brother of Ganesha, and a god whose life story has many versions in Hinduism.[8] An important deity in the Indian subcontinent since ancient times, Kartikeya is particularly popular and predominantly worshipped in South India, Sri Lanka and Malaysia as Murugan.[5
