Mysterious Temples Of Mahabharata
Mamaleshwar Mahadev Temple
Today I am going to tell you about the mysterious temple situated in village named Mamel in Mandi district of Himachal Pradesh. Created 5000 year ago, by the Pandavas during their exile period Mamaleswar Mahadev Temple is dedicated to Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati. This temple witnessed all Yugs Satyuga, Treta,Dwapar and now Kalyug.
A demon was living nearby the village in a cave. In order to save them from the fury of demon people of village were bound to send one person daily as a food for him. One day a mother was wiping because today was the turn of her son. Pandavas at that time were the guest of that house. Bhim, one of the Pandavas told the mother not to worry. He said he will go to the Demon. In the battle with demon, Bhim killed him and came back. For the bravery and the memory of this event the villagers lighted the fire which is continuously burning till then.
Statue of Lord Shiva & Goddess Parvati in the temple
Another attraction in the temple is a statue of Lord Shiva & Goddess Parvati in this temple.This statue is made up of metal whose name is Asht Dhatu. This temple is also special because here Lord Shiva is worshiped along with his full family.
