This Jyotirlinga is situated in Kashi and famous by the name of Shiv Vishwanath Kashi this holy place is very dear to Lord Shankar. It is said in the scriptures than this place was forever destroyed when the earth was submerged under water (Pralaya). It is so because Lord Shiva holds this place by his Trishul. Those who come and die here attain liberation. It is said that Lord Shiva gives the Tarak Mantra to the one who is going to die here. He resides here and is the giver of liberation and happiness. The one who prays and worships Vishweshwar with devotion attains all his desires. In addition, the one who incessantly recites his name attains all siddhis and finally gets liberated.
