Literally meaning the ‘radiant sign of almighty’, Jyotirlingas represent different manifestations of Lord Shiva and are revered by Hindus all over the world. It is believed that originally there were 64 Jyotirlingas in India but of those, 12 are considered to be more prominent. Visiting the sanctum sanctorum where these Jyotirlingas are enshrined can be a powerful religious experience. An experience that can wade off sins and make the soul pure once again.
