Nageshwar temple
Nageshwar
is regarded as one of the 12
Jyotirlinga Shrines
of Shiva. It is located on the route between
Dwarka and
the
Bet Dwarka island, on the coast of
Saurashtra
in Gujarat. The Rudra Samhita sloka refers to
Nageshwar
with the phrase 'Daarukaavane
Naagesham'.
Legend
has it that a devotee by name Supriya, was attacked by a demon
Daaruka,
while in a boat and that the demon imprisoned him along with several others at
his capital
Daarukaavana,
where he resided with his wife Daaruki. Shiva appeared in the form of a
Jyotirlingam
and vanquished the demon with the
Paasupata
Astram.
This
Jyotirlinga manifestation is worshipped as
Nageswara,
at this shrine on the way to Bet Dwarka from
Dwarka. Two
other sites in India, one near
Audhgram
near Purna in Andhra Pradesh and another near
Almora
in Uttar Pradesh also enshrine temples to Nageswara Jyotirlingam
