Kangra
temples: The legend behind Jwalamukhi
The temples in and around Kangra in Himachal
are Baijnath, Jwalamukhi, Chamunda Devi, Mahakal, Bajreshwari, Nainadevi and Chintpurni
It was at Jwalamukhi that, as the legend says, Adishakti, known
as Sati or Parvati, was born out of flames when the trinity
prayed to the superpower for help. She grew up in the house
of Prajapathi Daksha and later became the consort of Lord Shiva.
Pandavas built the first temple here. Ashtabhuja temple, one
km away, is an ancient place of worship. Chaumukha, 22 km, is
a Shiva temple with a four-faced image.
Panj Teerth and Mahakaleshwar, 9 km, are two sacred places
situated on the banks of the Beas.
Baijnath, 15 km away from Palamur, has a temple where Shiva
is worshipped as Vaidyanath, the lord of physicians. It is a
famous pilgrim centre. Ravana is said to have worshipped Shiva
for immortality here.
