Kārtikeya, also called Skanda and Murugan, is Śiva's son, leader of the heavenly army; his six faces are explained by the legend of his six wet-nurses, the Kṛttikās, after whom he is named. Mahā-śrī and ārogya are promised, "great fortune" and "health," that is, prosperity and freedom from illness. These two words deserve note, for they will recur, word for word, two lines from now. Śrī means "radiance, wealth, fortune"; ārogya, literally "painlessness," from roga, "illness."
These are the most ordinary of human wishes, and they occupy an honored place in the list. Not one of the first six lines says a word about the wearer's character — only about what he will get for it. The Vaiṣṇava side does not object to such prayer and does not itself forbid asking. But it has a counter-passage worth citing, for it overturns the usual relation: Kuntī asks Kṛṣṇa — vipadaḥ santu tāḥ śaśvat, "let misfortunes come to us always, for in misfortune comes a sight of You, and one who has seen You is not born again" (Bhāgavatam 1.8.25).
This request is not a praise of suffering and must not be read so. Its sense lies in an observation open to anyone: in contentment a person does not remember God, but in misfortune he does; and so Kuntī asks not for pain, but for the state in which she is able to remember.
