The Aundha Nagnath Temple found in Maharashtra’s Hingoli district, is highly favored by followers of Lord Shiva. Many believe that praying to this jyotirlinga can protect against poisons. What makes the temple truly captivating is its unique feature: the main shrine is situated underground, requiring visitors to descend to worship Lord Nagnath.

The Parli Vaijnath Jyotirlinga, situated in the Beed district of Maharashtra, derives its name from its lush surroundings abundant with medicinal plants. Visitors often describe feeling a soothing rejuvenation of their spirits amidst the serene atmosphere, alleviating the burdens of daily life. The profound impact of the journey is accentuated by the realization that the return to regular life awaits. The pilgrimage offered the pleasures of travel and a unique sense of unity with Lord Shiva, an experience unlike any other.

Grishneshwar Jyotirlinga is situated by an old pond named ‘Shivalay’ in a Verul village, about 20 km from Daulatabad, near Aurangabad in Maharashtra. Unlike the other 11 Jyotirlingas, the Lingam at Grishneshwar Temple is unique because the water flows towards the east after the ceremonial Abhishekam (ritual bathing).
Bhimashankar Temple

The Bhimashankar Temple, close to Pune, uniquely portrays Lord Shiva as “Ardhanareeshwara.” Notably, the Bhima River originates from Bhimashankar. This river is revered due to the belief that it symbolizes Lord Shiva’s perspiration after conquering the demon Tripurasura. Immersing oneself in the river is thought to absolve sins and grant purification.
Trimbakeshwar Jyotirlinga

Trimbakeshwar Jyotirlinga is located near Nasik and is considered the most sacred site in Hindu mythology. This temple is special because its Shiva Linga has three faces representing the three powerful Gods of Hindu belief: Brahma, Vishnu, and Maheshwara. The holy River Godavari originates from this place, and visiting here is believed to bring salvation to anyone.
