Puja at Kashi Vishwanath
Purpose Of Kashi Vishwanath Puja
The Kashi Vishwanath Temple is located at Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh, and is one of the most highly revered shrines of Lord Shiva. The presiding deity of the temple is Lord Shiva who is also known as Vishwanath or Vishweshwara, meaning the “Ruler of the World\. At the Kashi Vishwanath Temple, the holy Jyotirlinga is placed in a silver altar in the sanctum sanctorum. It is one of the twelve Jyotirlingas (Linga of light) of Lord Shiva.
The Kashi Vishwanath Jyotirlinga is considered as foremost of all Jyotirlingas and also called as king of Jyotirlingas. Offering Puja at Kashi Vishwanath is known to be equivalent to offering Puja at all other 11 Jyotirlingas combined. As per Shiv Mahapuran, once Lord Brahma and Lord Vishnu were arguing about the supremacy of their creations. To humble them, Lord Shiva pierced the three worlds with an endless pillar of light (Jyotirlinga) whose end neither could find.
