Nageshwar Jyotirling


Nageshwar Jyotirling is a very famous temple, located on the route between Gomati Dwarka and the Bet Dwarka Island on the coast of Saurashtra in Gujarat. It is 11 km far from Dwarka. The Jyotirlinga enshrined in the Temple of Nagnath is known as Nageshwar Mahadev and attracts thousands of pilgrims all round the year. This powerful Jyotirlinga symbolizes protection from all poisons. It is said that those who pray to the Nageshwar Linga become free of poison. The Rudra Samhita sloka refers to Nageshwar with the phrase 'Daarukaavane Naagesham'
