Written guaranteeAccording to the Shiva Purana, the twelve sacred sites where Lord Shiva himself manifested as a jyoti (pillar of light) are called the Dwadash Jyotirlinga. They are spread across India and are regarded as the supreme pilgrimage sites for devotees of Shiva.
Among them, Shri Kashi Vishwanath holds the honour of being the seventh Jyotirlinga — situated in Vishwanath Gali on the western bank of the sacred Ganga, in the city of Varanasi (Kashi), Uttar Pradesh. It is one of the world’s oldest living cities and the foremost of Hinduism’s Sapta Puris (moksha-giving cities). It is believed that darshan and abhishek here fulfil wishes, and that anyone who passes away in Kashi is granted moksha directly by Lord Shiva through the Taraka Mantra.
Journeys to the remaining eleven Jyotirlingas will also become available on Mangal Bhav in turn. Tap a number on the wheel to learn about that Jyotirlinga.
Carrying countless layers of history and faith, this temple holds a special place for devotees of Shiva —
Kashi Vishwanath is the sacred site on the banks of the holy Ganga in the city of Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh, which holds a distinguished place among the twelve Jyotirlingas in the scriptures.
