Sawan 2024: छत्तीसगढ़ के महासमुंद में ऐसा ही एक शिव मंदिर है जिसे गंधेश्वर महादेव के नाम से जाना जाता है। इतिहास के जानकारों की मानें तो गंधेश्वर मंदिर में मौजूद का शिविलंग लगभग 2 हजार साल पुरानर है और इसकी सबसे खास बात ये है कि शिवलिंग से तुलसी के पत्तों सी खुशबू आती है।

00:00On the seventh day of the holy month of Sawan, let us visit Gandhishwar Mahadev Temple, located
00:09in Sirpur, Mahasamud district of Maharashtra, which is also known as Baba Dham of Chhattisgarh
00:16by looking at the glory of Lord Shiva.
00:19Lord Gandhishwar is seated with a beautiful view along the banks of the Mahanadi in Sirpur.
00:27Due to the fragrance emanating from this wonderful Shiva Linga of Lord Shiva, it is called Lord Gandhishwar.
00:36The construction of this temple on the banks of the river was done by Banasur during the
00:43time of Balarjuna in the 8th century.
00:45There is a divine story about this that Banasur was the heir of Sirpur in the 8th century.
00:52He was a devotee of Shiva.
00:54He always used to go to Kashi to worship Lord Shiva.
00:59And he used to bring along a Shiva Linga from there.
01:03According to the story, one day Lord Shankar appeared and said to Banasur that you always
01:10come to Kashi to worship.
01:12Now I am appearing in Sirpur.
01:15Upon this, Banasur said that Lord, I have established Shiva Linga in a large number in
01:21Sirpur.
01:23He asked Bholenath that when they will appear, how can they be recognized?
01:29On this, Lord Shiva said that the Shiva Linga from which the smell is felt, establish it
01:35and worship it.
01:37Since then, Lord Shiva's worship in Sirpur is done in the form of Gandhishwar Mahadev.
01:43It is believed that the Shiva Linga still smells in the womb.
01:48That is why Lord Shiva is worshipped here in the form of Gandhishwar.
01:53According to the priest of the temple, different fragrances are felt here at different times.
02:01And because it is an ancient temple, people come to see it from afar.
02:08Wishing you all Shiva devotees on the 7th day of Shravan month.
02:15Lord Gandhishwar Mahadev bless you all.
02:19Om Namah Shivaya.
