Guest guest Posted September 22, 2003 Report Share Posted September 22, 2003 Thanks for your letter and such a mine of information, there is only one confusion for me. 1. ur letter states that there are 13 Jyotirlingas, but over here most of the members have been talking about 12 and i think what i have heard is that VRA also states 12 2. Could u be kind enough to expand on the Atma Linga in karnataka and its significations. 3. They say there is a legend or mythology or story attached to each Jyotirlinga, I feel it is nice to know about them, would you know about them or maybe anyone 4. Why is Bhimashanker near Pune a doubtful Jyotirlinga ? Best wishes to you Nice to hear from you again Sunil John Mumbai------- Original message -------From : tvrao_agd Date : Mon, 22 Sep 2003 17:56:20 +0530 dear sunil, as per my knowledge the jyotirlingas are scatterd all over india and in partiular all 4 sides, i.e. north, south, east and west of india. the balance are in the middle of india in different states. the list statewise is as follows. 1. uttar pradesh - 2 (kedarnath, vishwanath) 2. gujarat - 1 (somnath) 3. madhya pradesh - 2 (omkareshwar and mahakaleshwar) 4. maharashtra - 4 (tryambakeshwar, grishneshwar, vaijjanath and nageshwar). 5th bhimashankar near pune is doubtful. 5. andhra pradesh - 1 (mallikarjun) 6. tamil nadu - 1 (rameshwar) 7. assam - 1 (bhimashankar) apart from these jyotirlingas, in karnataka atma linga is there. my knowledge is very limited and gurus/learned people on this list can correct me. tvr - Sunil John vedic astrology Sunday, September 21, 2003 8:57 PM Re: [vedic astrology] Re: 12 Jyotlingas - Neeraj Archives: vedic astrologyGroup info: vedic astrology/info.htmlTo UNSUBSCRIBE: Blank mail to vedic astrology-.......

They say there is a legend or mythology or story attached to each Jyotirlinga, I feel it is nice to know about them, would you know about them or maybe anyone tvr: the atma linga supposed to be given by lord shiva to ravana. ravana was supposed to install the same in lanka so as to protect it from invasions. to avoid the atma linga to reach lanka, narada had requested sri ganesha for help and in turn it could be stopped at the gokarna, karnataka (sea shore) on west bank. 4. Why is Bhimashanker near Pune a doubtful Jyotirlinga ? tvr: i heard from people that the bhimashankar near gauhati, assam is the jyotirlinga and near pune it is not jyotirlinga. i am not sure about this.
