English: Nepal's ancient Shivalinga in the sanctum sanctorum of the famous Bhringareshwar Mahadev temple at Sunakothi in Lalitpur district. The upper part of the Shivalinga, which is about 3 feet high and slightly sloping, is broken. Considering the Shivalinga of Bhringareshwar and Jalhari, it is clear that it is the Shivalinga of the Brahma sect. The discovery and research of the Shivalinga of this Bhringareshwar Mahadev has confirmed that both the Shivalinga and the Jalhari belong to the Brahma sect. The aquifer is four-sided, while the aquifer is about 5x5 feet. There is a Shivalinga in the middle of the circular lotus flower in the artistic style. Dr. The sixty-fourth Shivalinga written by Swami Prapannacharya is mentioned in the analytical research as being the first Shivalinga of the Brahmo sect to be worshiped by Brahma among the ancient Shiva-worshiping sects.
Behind the Shivalinga, i.e. from the main entrance, there are idols of various deities in a small khopa, while on the left side there are copper tridents and drums. While bathing the Shivalinga with the water of Gyan Kund, it was flowing from the left side. And there is also Om above. There is also a picture of Bhringareshwar temple in the upper part. A garland of rudraksha is hung on the left side and a garland of rudraksha is also placed on the top of the Shivalinga. This sanctum sanctorum has 4 doors. Although the Shivalinga looks straight from the main door, the Shivalinga is tilted when viewed from the other door. Some locals even call it Dhalkeshwar Shivalinga. The place where the Shivalinga is located, i.e. the ground, can be seen cracked in many places. Which is mentioned in the records of the Lichhavi period written by Dhanbajra Bajracharya. Sunakothi is a new name. There is a Sunakothi at a distance of about 4 kilometers from Patan's Mangal Bazaar, Lalitpur. In this place there is a temple of Bhringareshwar Mahadev, which is more ancient than Pashupatinath Mahadev. It is mentioned in the medieval records written by Mr. Dhanbajracharya. It is mentioned that the temple of Bhringareshwar Mahadev is the temple before the temple of Pashupati. Bhringareshwar Shivalinga is one of the four Swayambhu Siddhajyotirlings. Therefore, it is considered to be non-man-made and self-generated Jyotirlings. Thus, Shri Bhringareshwar Mahadev is considered as one of the most ancient Mahadevs found in Nepal. This temple can be understood by different names. Bhringareshwar, Bhringreshwar, Bhringresh, Bhimbhringeshwar, Bhringishwar and Suvarneshwar. In the Lichchhavi period, the records of Bhimarjunade and Vishnu Gupta mention Bhringar village Panchali and only Bhringar is mentioned, while the records of Shri Shivadev II clearly mention Bhringareshwar. Since the name of Bhringareshwar is mentioned in the Gopal Raj dynasty, it is clear that this name came to the fore. The old temple of Bhringareshwar Mahadev was completely damaged by the great earthquake of 1990 BS. The present temple has been rebuilt. King Bishnu Singh of Lalitpur dedicated it to his father, King Kusum Singh, and built a flawless temple for Mahadev on Shiva Yoga on Monday, 674 A.D., 1610 Magh Shukla Panchami. Dhanbajracharya mentions that this ancient temple used to be very grand and the description of Prasad Ratna Sumeru with Dancho Lagdo etc. gives the impression that the roof of the temple is made of gold. In this context, culturologist Satya Mohan Joshi mentions that the Managruh Rajprasad built in the name of King Mandev in the 5th century AD and the Kailashkoot Bhavan in the inscription of King Shivadev in another inscription clearly show the ancient history of Bhringareshwar place of Sunaguthi. Rituals also appear. In fact, it is Siddhamahadev. Shri Bhringareshwar Mahadev Bhaktabatsal Mahadev is the one who fulfills the desires and welfare of the devotees. Like the Bhringareshwar Shivalinga Parasmani and Sparsamani, the priest's Kush's ring turned into a gold ring and the throat's chisel turned into a golden sickle. Was In the inscription kept by Shri Shivadev on Samvat 121 Bhadra Shukla Panchami, it is found that many things related to Bhringareshwar are mentioned in this inscription. The phrase "for the condition of Bhringareshwar Dev temple" mentioned in this inscription makes it clear that the temple was built with the phrase "Bhringareshwar Mahadev" and also for the status of "Bhring". Similarly, in the records of Bhattarak Maharaj Bhimarjudev and Shri Bishnugupta, who was working during his time, in the year 65 Phagun Shukla Vditiya, it is mentioned by the Panchalikars of Bhringar village. It is also mentioned that the Panchalis of the village of Bhringareshwar Mahadev, where Bhringareshwar Mahadev was located, happily pulled a stone to make a statue of wonder in the task of bringing the burden of Kashti Vishti i.e. Jhara. From this, it is known that the residents of Bhringareshwar Vek had brought stones to make a statue of Budhanilkantha Narayan. In addition to this, it is also mentioned in the records that the residents of Bhringaareshwar Vek have been given the right of autonomy by the state. All these evidences show that this temple is older than Pashupati. There are many temples within this temple complex. |
