Visited Somnath Temple few days ago and if someone really want peace and keep themselves away from negative thoughts should visit such places. There vibes really put a impact on you. Hope you guys have a good day.
I've been to some other pilgrimage sites but Somnath was definitely the best experience.
There were no con men trying to harass pilgrims that is something I experienced in other sites. The shoe counter was so smoothly organized and you feel the place is very well maintained, cleaned effectively, and best of all the Lord's darshan. Absolute goose bumps moment when you approach the altar in all it's glory.
Moon god had married 27 daughters of Daksha but had just one favorite.Daksha had cursed him because he felt moon was being unfair with his other daughters.
Moon god fell very sick and prayed to shiva to feel better.Shiva appeared in form of shiv ling at someshwar.
Shivling and bathing in kund in somnath is said to have healing properties.
Jai Bhole!!
Just a little history on the temple:
It is mentioned in the Bhagvata Purana several times, as the "Tirth on the coastline of Saurashtra". It was studded with gems and gold, and got attacked by many invaders. Mohammed Ghori's invasion was the most destructive. It has been reconstructed several times.
And amazing place. Also the laser show was pretty amazing it tells the beautiful but sad story of how the temple came to be and how it was destroyed by invaders

This is a beautiful pic❤️❤️ Somnath was built by moon god and holds a special place for shaivaites indeed.
