Mythology & History of Neelkanth Temple
According to Hindu mythology, during the churning of the ocean (Samudra Manthan), a deadly poison known as Halahal emerged, which could destroy the world. To save creation, Lord Shiva drank the poison. However, Parvati stopped it in his throat, which turned blue. This event earned him the name “Neelkanth” (meaning blue throat).
When the other gods and demons saw Lord Shiva’s throat turning blue, they became scared. To give him relief, they poured the holy water of the Ganga River on him and offered Bel Patra (Bilva leaves), which are naturally cool. These offerings brought peace and calmness to Lord Shiva.
It is believed that the Neelkanth Mahadev Temple marks the spot where Lord Shiva meditated after consuming the poison. The temple’s sanctum has a Shiva Linga and symbolic depictions of the event.
Note: – Lord Shiva was pleased with this devotion. Since then, during the holy month of Sawan, devotees from far and wide carry sacred Ganga water and Bel Patra to offer at the Neelkanth Temple to seek his blessings.
