The Myth and Origin of Bhimashankar Jyotirlinga
The origin of Bhimashankar is narrated in the Shiva Purana through the story of Bhima, the mighty son of the demon Kumbhakarna. Bhima grew up without knowing his father, and when his mother revealed that his father had been killed by Vishnu in the form of Rama during the Lanka war, Bhima was consumed by a burning desire for revenge. He undertook severe austerities to please Brahma, who granted him enormous strength. Drunk on this power, Bhima began terrorizing the world, imprisoning a king named Kamarupa who was a devoted Shiva worshipper. In captivity, Kamarupa continued his puja of the Shivalinga with unwavering devotion. Enraged, Bhima attempted to destroy the linga with his sword — and at that very moment, Lord Shiva emerged from the linga in a form of blinding, annihilating radiance. He destroyed Bhima and all his armies with a single look. The gods and sages pleaded with Shiva to remain at that spot forever, and Shiva agreed, manifesting permanently as the Bhimashankar Jyotirlinga. It is also said that the sweat which dripped from Shiva's body after this cosmic battle became the source of the Bhima river — one of the major tributaries of the Krishna, flowing westward through Maharashtra.
