Kashi Vishwanath Temple in Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh is home to the Vishwanath Jyotirlinga shrine, that is probably the foremost sacred of Hindu shrines. Some Muslim rulers had destroyed & desecrated  it, and designed a house of worship next thereto. The place has been restored by later kings. At the start, Shiva burst through the planet as a fiery pillar of sunshine at Kashi, which implies to shine, the town of sunshine. This eternal lightweight of Shiva from that Brahma and Vishnu were born, extended to the very best reaches of the heavens, and neither Brahma nor Vishnu may realize its origin or termination. That was the origin of the Kashi Vishwanath JyotirLingam. Then Lord Shiva took the shape of Hindu deity and visited go on Mount Kailash.

Nirvikar cahitanya and Sanatan Brahma have assumed kind the shape of Saguna Vishwarupa from the initial Nirgun Roopa or form. The Shiva Shakti roopa became the Purusha (man) and Stree (the woman) once more. Prakriti and Purusha (Nature and man) (Shiva-Shakti) were once ordained by Shiva to try and do tapas within the universe so as to form the most effective being. He fixed the best place for this purpose. Once a prayer was command, Nirgun Shiva, along with his own powers and aura, created an exquisite city known as Panchakoshi. Vishnu, United Nations agency resided there, spent plenty of your time praying to Shiva once that many watersprings originated there. Hindu deity was stunned at this wonderous event, and when he ploughed his head, a gemstone fell from his ear. due to this place, it absolutely was conjointly known as Manikarnika. the complete Panch Koshi space of Manikarnika waters were then gathered into the spear by Shiva. Then from the navel of Hindu deity was born a lotus flower with Brahma in it. Brahma was ordained by Shiva to form a world, at that Brahma created this excellent world.
It had fifty large integer Yojanas of space and fourteen lokas. so as to save lots of the lives of those United Nations agency square measure sure by their own actions or fate. Shiva unbroken panchakoshi town aloof from the complete universe. during this town, Shiva Himself established the saviour Muktidayak JyotirLinga, that He will ne'er leave. Shiva removed this terribly Kashi from His spear and set it in this mortal world. it absolutely was to not be destroyed once Brahma’s day ends, however throughout Pralay i.e., final destruction of the world, Shiva saved it by keeping it safe in his spear. that the kashi is named avimukta kshetra. In Kashi, the Avimukteshwar Linga is there forever. people who will ne'er hope for salvation, attain Moksha here.

This holiest town of Panchakoshi, with its capability to destroy each conceivable sin, is that the vehicle of a special Moksha by the name “Samyugha”. that's the rationale why this town that is dominated by Brahma, Vishnu and Mahesha, is the place, wherever even divines need to die. Sarwaguna from within and Tamoguna from outside, ar the qualities of Rudra
here. Once prayed to, Vishwanatha Bahagavan Sri Shankar created this abode and resided there with Parvati.

Durga Temple (Kund)

Durga temple, also known as the "monkey temple" is one of the important temples of Varanasi. This temple is dedicated to Goddess Durga. The Durga temple was built in the eighteenth century. A Bengali Maharani built the Durga temple in Nagara Style (the North Indian style of temple architecture). It is stained red with ochre and has a multi-tiered shikhara (spire). The Durga temple is situated on a rectangular tank, called the Durga Kund. According to the Puranas, Goddess Durga has kept this place for many centuries and protects the holy city, Varanasi, from the South.

According to legends, the present statue of Goddess Durga was not made by man but appeared on its own in the temple. The Durga temple is also called Monkey temple because of the presence of large number of monkeys. In Hinduism, Durga is represented as the embodiment of shakti or female power, clad in red, riding a tiger and fully armed with Shiva's trident, Vishnu's discus and a sword. Non-Hindus can enter the courtyard of the Durga temple but not the inner sanctum. Thousands of Hindu devotees visit the Durga temple during Navratri and other auspicious occasions.
