Hi guys, there is another story related to Bhamasur. So here it goes...
As we all know that even the demons used to worship Lord Shiva & obtained boons from them. One such demon was Bhamasur. He underwent rigorous penance to obtain boon from Mahadev. One day, Mahadev appeared & asked for his boon. Bhamasur said, "Who so ever I touched should turn to ashes". Mahadev as usual said the word 'Tathastu'. To obtain victory over Devas, Bhamasur first tried this on Lord Shiva. Behind this thing was that he wanted Aadi Shakti Parvati Maa. Sensing fear, Mahadev went underground. Travelling he reached the caves in Pachmarhi. To hide he went into a cave. That cave was small & narrow. In a way to reach inside the cave Lord Shiva 'jataa' collided with the entrance of the cave & thus it was separated. This placed came to be known as' JATASHANKAR'. Today also the 'jataa' it is seen...
And the rest we all know that Lord Vishnu assumed the form of Mohini & the rest is history & was shown in the episode.
Pachmarhi is the only hill station in Madhya Pradesh & also an important place for devotees of Lord Shiva. It is in Hoshangabad district. Nearest airport :- Nagpur (Maharashtra). Jatashankar is the nearest spot in Pachmarhi, just 1.5 km from the town. The most beautiful thing about Jatashankar temple is that it is a natural temple.. You will get peace & inspiration from here & myself have also visited here... You will get natural water stream flowing, that to ice cold in any season. It is said to be Lord Shiva natural A.C.(air conditioning) cave. Pachmarhi is also famous for Naagdwar yatra.
Knowledge & suggestions are welcomed. Critics are also invited for their inputs...
