Above image is of Brihadeeswara Temple, Tamil Nadu. It is said, having a darshan of Gopuram itself is a blessing.

Suprabhatham, friends!
Recently I had a Darshan of Bhagawan #Mahadeva's manifestation in the form of Shiva Lingam at Siddhanath Mahadev Mandir, located at Nemawar, Dt. Dewas, M.P.
The temple, located on the banks of River Narmada is exiquisite and gave me a divine feeling.

It is said that this point, where the Mandir is located, is the Nabhisthal (Navel or midpoint) of River Narmada. One can say that in some ways, it lies between Mahakaal Jyotirling and Omkareshwar Jyotirling.
This temple is supposed to be about 3000+ years old.

According to Sthala Purana and the locals, there is a connection to the Mahabharata with this temple. This is one of the rare temples that faces the West. The story goes that one time the Kauravas and Pandavas challenged each other to build a temple in one night.

These 3 lingas are the ones that are being worshiped at Vaikom, Kaduthuruthy &Ettumanoor in Kottayam district.
The distance from Vaikom to Kadathuruthy & from there to Ettumanoor is almost equal.Darshan of all these 3 Lingas on the same day is considered a great boon.
