Shri Dev Vyadeshwar (देवनागरी: श्री देव व्याडेश्वर) is an ancient shiva temple〔http://www.nativeplanet.com/guhagar/attractions/vyadeshwar-temple/〕 located at Guhagar,〔http://ratnagiri.nic.in/Gazetter/BombayPresidency/ratnagiri/places1_g.html#6〕 a well known Taluka place in the Ratnagiri District of Maharashtra State in India. It is considered to be the Kuladevata or clan god of many Chitpavan families from Konkan region. Pindi of Shri Vyadweshwar ==Story== According to Hindu myth, Bhagwan Parshurama created the land of Konkan〔Shrikant Gowande (2007),"Guhagarche Swayambhoo Devasthan Shri Kshetra Vyadeshwar", Anmol Publication, Pune 411002.〕 after donating the earth to Maharshi Kashyap. Then he requested different Gods and Goddesses to settle in the newly created land and to take responsibility of various clans. Parshuram, being a devotee of Shri Shiva, requested Bhagwan Shankar to give him 'Darshan' everyday, while he is living in the newly created land. Lord Shiva accepted his request.Lord Parshuram also brought 60 'Vipras' to settle in Kokan.One such Vipra named 'Vyad' installed a Shivlinga at Guhagar. After 'Shriramavatar' and 'Shrikrushnavtar' Lord Vishnu came with his 'Kalki' manifestation. In this era, since evil thoughts are supposed to prevail, Gods are to remain in their invisible forms. Accordingly Lord Shiva decided to remain in invisible form in the Shivalinga installed by Vyad Muni. The same Shivalinga is this well known ''Vyadeshwar'' Mahadeo. Thus, Lord Shiva stays at Guhagar in the 'Vyadeshwar' Shivalinga from years together. According to another myth, in the era of King Sakuran, the Vyadeshwar Shivalinga was re-invented and the Temple,〔http://www.konkanyatra.com/chiplun/g8.html〕 which we see today, was constructed. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Vyadeshwar」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
