Nageshvara Jyotirlinga
Nageshvara Jyotirlinga is one of the 12 Jyotirlinga shrines mentioned in the Shiva Purana. Nageshvara is believed to be the first Jyotirlinga on earth.
==Jyotirlinga==
According to Shiv Mahapuraan, Brahma (The Creator) and ()
]] (The Preserver) once had a disagreement about which one of them had supremacy.〔R. 2003, pp. 92-95〕 To test them, Shiva pierced the three worlds as an immeasurable pillar of light, the Jyotirlinga. Vishnu and Brahma parted company in order to try to find the extent of each end of the pillar. Brahma, who had set off upward, then lied that he had discovered the end of the pillar, but Vishnu, who had gone in the direction of the base of the pillar, admitted that he had not. Shiva then appeared as a second Jyotirlinga and cursed Brahma, telling him that he would have no place in the ceremonies, though Vishnu would be worshipped until the 'end of eternity'. The ''jyothirlinga'' shrines (the Jyotirlinga being the supreme indivisible reality from which Shiva appears) commemorate and consecrate this time when Shiva appeared as a fiery column of light.〔Eck 1999, p. 107〕〔See: Gwynne 2008, Section on Char Dham〕 It was believed that there were originally sixty-four ''jyothirlingas'' , twelve of these being considered to be especially auspicious and holy.〔 Each of the twelve ''jyothirlinga'' sites takes the name of the presiding deity and each is considered a separate manifestation of Shiva.〔Lochtefeld 2002, pp. 324-325〕 At all these sites, the primary image is ''lingam'' representing the beginningless and endless ''Stambha'' pillar, symbolizing the infinite nature of Shiva.〔〔Harding 1998, pp. 158-158〕〔Vivekananda Vol. 4〕 The twelve ''jyothirlinga'' are Somnath in Gujarat, Mallikarjuna at Srisailam in Andhra Pradesh, Mahakaleswar at Ujjain in Madhya Pradesh, Omkareshwar in Madhya Pradesh, Kedarnath in Himalayas, Bhimashankar in Maharashtra, Viswanath at Varanasi in Uttar Pradesh, Triambakeshwar in Maharashtra, Vaidyanath at Deogarh in Jharkhand, Nageshvara Jyotirlinga, Rameshwar at Rameswaram in Tamil Nadu and Grishneshwar at Aurangabad in Maharashtra.〔〔Chaturvedi 2006, pp. 58-72〕
