MANGLESHWAR TEMPLE OF SRINAGAR KASHMIR

                       

Everytime i went there , the shrine was locked . This is  700 year old Mangleshwar temple of kashmir . Dedicated to Lord Shiva, the shrine is locäted at a place known as Namchibal near Fateh kadal in Srinagar city.  And Namchi was son of sage kashyapa of Kashmir. He was a cruel, cunning and powerful person.As per the legend, Namchi was defeated by Indra finally.And Indra had sought Lord Shiva's help in this task.

Due to collective efforts of hindus and muslims of the area,the gates of the temple were opened after 18 long years in  April  2007,A hawan was performed at the shrine after about two decades. 

Charaagon ko aankhon me mehfooz Rakhna,
Badi door tak raat hi Raat hogi.
Musafir hain ham bhi mussafir ho tum bhi,
Kisi mod pe phir mulaaqaat hogi .
( Bashir Badr )



Place the  lamps safe in thy  eyes,
The night  of darknes has to  spread far and beyond.
You are a traveller  and so am i ,
Surely ,We shall meet again at some corner.
