Episode 91 How is the Somnath jyotirlinga connected with Lord Shiva?
The Somnath Jyotirlinga is one of the 12 sacred shrines dedicated to Lord Shiva, known as Jyotirlingas. It is located in Prabhas Patan near Veraval in Saurashtra, Gujarat, India. The Somnath Jyotirlinga is deeply connected to Lord Shiva through a rich and ancient legend.
Legend of Somnath Jyotirlinga: According to Hindu mythology, the legend of Somnath Jyotirlinga is associated with the Moon God, Chandra (Soma). Chandra, the Moon God, had married 27 daughters of Daksha Prajapati, but he favored one wife, Rohini, over the others. This partiality angered Daksha, and he cursed Chandra to gradually wane and lose his brightness.
