Once Daksh was performing a yagna and he had invited all the deities except Lord Shiva and Sati.
Sati decided to go to Her father's yagna anyway.Lord Shiva advised Sati not to attend the function but Sati pleaded to go,thinking that it was Her father after all & he would welcome Her.

Sati arrived at Daksh's palace.When Daksh saw Sati,he began to insult Her and Lord Shiva.
Shiva.Sati didn't mind Her father insulting Her, but She was unable to hear bad words for Her Lord.She jumped in the sacred Yagna and hence the Yagna was desecrated.When Lord Shiva heard of this unfortunate incident, He was furious and attained the form of Veerbhadra and ...
tore off Daksh's head and tossed it in the same sacrificial fire. In order to complete the Yagna, a goats head was attached to Daksh's body.After this incident, Daksh spent his remaining years as a devotee of Lord Shiva...
Lord Shiva began wandering sadly, carrying Sati's body with Him. He started d dance of destruction. The whole world ws on d verge of destruction. To save d world & in order to break Lord Shiva's attachment, Lord Vishnu flung His Sudarshan Chakra & cut Sati's body into many pieces
51 pieces from Mata Sati's body fell at 51 different places which are known as Shakti Peethas. It's believed that if one goes and prays with utmost devotion at these Shaktipeethas, all their wishes are fulfilled.

रामायण का पहला श्लोक ही संस्कृत साहित्य का पहला श्लोक है। रामायण ही संस्कृत साहित्य का पहला महाकाव्य है सबसे रोचक बात ये है कि इस श्लोक में एक श्राप दिया गया है. जानिए इस श्राप की कहानी -

श्लोक-
मां निषाद प्रतिष्ठां त्वमगमः शाश्वतीः समाः ।
यत्क्रौंचमिथुनादेकम् अवधीः काममोहितम् ॥
मां निषाद प्रतिष्ठां त्वमगमः शाश्वतीः समाः ।
यत्क्रौंचमिथुनादेकम् अवधीः काममोहितम् ॥

अर्थ : हे निषाद ! तुमको अनंत काल तक (प्रतिष्ठा) शांति न मिले, क्योकि तुमने प्रेम, प्रणय-क्रिया में लीन असावधान क्रौंच पक्षी के जोड़े में से एक की हत्या कर दी.
First Shloka of Ramayana in Sanskrit – संस्कृत का पहला श्लोक कैसे बना :
एक दिन ब्रह्ममूहूर्त में वाल्मीकि ऋषि स्नान, नित्य कर्मादि के लिए गंगा नदी को जा रहे थे. वाल्मीकि ऋषि के वस्त्र साथ में चल रहे उनके शिष्य भारद्वाज मुनि लिए हुए थे. मार्ग में उन्हें तमसा नामक नदी मिलती है.

जहाँ इन्हें शरण मिल सके l
अगर जिन्दगी रही हम बचे रहे या ये बचे रहे तो दुबारा मिलेंगे।

500 शरणार्थी पोलिस महिलाओ और 200 बच्चो से भरा वो जहाज ईरान के सिराफ़ बंदरगाह पहुंचा,वहाँ किसी को शरण क्या उतरने की अनुमति तक नही मिली,फिर सेशेल्स मेंभी नही मिली, फिर अदन में भी अनुमति नही मिली।
अंत में समुद्र में भटकता-भटकता वो जहाज गुजरात के जामनगर के तट पर आया।

एक बार की बात है कि किसी राजा ने यह फैसला लिया कि वह प्रतिदिन 100 अंधे लोगों को खीर खिलाया करेगा। एक दिन खीर वाले दूध में सांप ने मुंह डाला और दूध में विष डाल दी और ज़हरीली खीर को खाकर 100 के 100 अंधे व्यक्ति मर गए।..

।। जय श्री कृष्ण ।।
राजा बहुत परेशान हुआ कि मुझे 100 आदमियों की हत्या का पाप लगेगा।

राजा परेशानी की हालत में अपने राज्य को छोड़कर जंगलों में भक्ति करने के लिए चल पड़ा, ताकि इस पाप की माफी मिल सके। रास्ते में एक गांव आया। राजा ने चौपाल में बैठे लोगों से पूछा की...
इस गांव में कोई भक्ति भाव वाला परिवार है ताकि उसके घर रात काटी जा सके। चौपाल में बैठे लोगों ने बताया कि इस गांव में दो बहन भाई रहते हैं जो खूब बंदगी करते हैं। राजा उनके घर रात ठहर गया।

सुबह जब राजा उठा तो लड़की सिमरन पर बैठी हुई थी। इससे पहले लड़की का रूटीन था कि….

Il Mukti Gupteshwar Temple ll
in Minto, Australia

The 13th and the last Jyothirlinga was gifted to Australia in 1999 by the then King of Nepal -- the late Birendra Bir Bikram Shah Dev.

#हर____हर___महादेव #ॐ_नमः_शिवाय
Together with this was gifted 7996 hymns arranged in eight volumes especially to be sung in praise of this deity.

According to the scriptures, construction of this lingam had to be in the southern hemisphere which symbolised the 'mouth of the snake'...
the snake being like an ornament around Lord Shiva's neck. Hence Australia was chosen.

This temple's foundation was laid on Shivratri in 1999 in Minto -- Sydney's suburb.

Its uniqueness lies in the fact that it is the only cave temple to have been constructed by man.
