Pashupatinath Temple is one of the most famous Hindu temples dedicated to Lord Shiva, sacred abode of Lord Shiva. It is located in the ancient city of Mandsaur in the state of Madhya Pradesh (Heart of Incredible India).

  • The Shivalinga here consists of 8 faces. Every part has four faces which portray the four stages of life. It is the unique sculpture of Lord Shiva in the world.
  • The water level of the Shivna river, near the temple, rises to 90 feet to touch the Shivlingam every year during the monsoon. This process is termed as “Jalaabhishek” which means worshiping the Almighty through the water.
  • The Shivlingam is divided into two parts and there are four faces on the upper section and four faces on the lower section.
  • The famous shrine has four doors which pave the way to four different directions, north, south, east and west. Each direction consists of two faces displaying the eight rasas: the east stands for peace and concentration, the west for the Rudra form or angry, the north is full of snakes and hairs and the south for gentle and artistic creation.

Legend : It has been said that Lord Vishnu along with other gods had named Lord Shiva as Pashupati during the time of Tripura Samhar. Lord Shiva became the lord of all the demons and demolished Tripura, the three cities of illusion, which were being administered by the demons Kamlaaksha, Taarakaaksha and Vidyunmaali. This three pashus were creating destruction by assaulting gods and sages. Shiv Purana states that any individual who is in the clutches of his own ego, ignorance and wants, is an animal or pashu. And under such circumstances, only Lord Pashupati can provide relief to them.
