Sthaneshwar
Mahadev Temple at Thaneswar in Kurukshetra is another
holy center. Kurukshetra is a small sacred town
for the Hindus. It is small and distinct. With an
air of an ancient presence, lies the Sthaneshvara
Mahadev Temple at Thanesar. It was here that the
Pandavas prayed to Lord Shiva and received his blessings
for victory in the battle of Mahabharata. The ninth
Guru, Shri Tegh Bahadur stayed at a spot near the
Sthaneshwar Tirtha that is marked by a gurdwara.
The temple of Sthaneswar is the abode of Lord Shiva
say the devote. It once formed an important part
of the kingdom of the King Harsha Vardhan of the
Pushyabhuti dynasty. It isalso believed that Lord
Shiva was first worshipped here in the form of a
linga. The ancestor of the Mahabharata heroes, Kuru,
performed penance on the banks of the Yamuna and
Parshurama, the great warrior and sage killed many
Kshatriyas (warriors) here. Legend has it that the
waters of the tank adjoining the temple are holy.
A few drops of water cured the King Ban of leprosy.
And, no pilgrimage of Kurukshetra is believed to
be entirely complete without a visit to this holy
Temple. The tank and temple lie a short distance
from Thanesar town, which gets its name from this
temple.Copyright ©2006-2007 CR License, LLC. All Right Reserved.
