"Kashya Maranam Muktihih" ~ Dying in Kashi offers liberation, escape from the endless cycle of birth and death. Mahadev moves around in Kashi, Breaks through the clouds and mixes with the world of humans, breathing Taraka Mantra through their ears, who have passed away, sending them on their way to heaven! Ram Ram Ram ~ Om Namo Narayana !#TheShivaTribe Shri Vishwanath or Vishweshwara, means Ruler of the universe, Kashi Vishwanath Temple is located in Varanasi. The temple stands on the western bank of the holy river Ganga, and is one of the twelve Jyotirlingas, the holiest of Shiva temples. The Temple has been referred to in Hindu Scriptures for a very long time and as a central part of worship in the Shaiva philosophy. It has been destroyed and re-constructed a number of times in the history. The last structure was demolished by Aurangzeb, the sixth Mughal emperor who constructed the Gyanvapi Mosque on its site. The current structure was built on an adjacent site by the Maratha monarch, Ahilya Bai Holkar of Indore in 1780. Since 1983, the temple has been managed by the government of Uttar Pradesh. During the religious occasion of Shivratri, Kashi Naresh (King of Kashi) is the chief officiating priest and no other person or priest is allowed to enter the temple sanctorum. It is only after he performs his religious functions that others are allowed to enter. Thousands of sins of a person are destroyed by mere sight of Kashi Vishwanath Jyotirlinga!
Har Har Mahadev Shambhu Kashi Vishwanath Gange ππ»ππ»ππ»
