On a request by Goddess Parvati, Lord
Shiva narrated the various deities/Shiv Lings/Teerths (Sacred Ponds) spread
over the expanse of Kashi. (Kashi Khand, Chapter 97).
Kashi Khand mentions one
Panchanadeshwar Ling in the vicinity of Mangala Gauri. This Ling is
called as Pancha Gangeshwar by the locals.
Devotees who worship Pancha
Gangeshwar (Panchanadeshwar) will be blessed with all sorts of happiness in
life.
LOCATION OF PANCHANADESHWAR
Panchanadeshwar (Pancha Gangeshwar)
is located at K.22/11, below Tailang Swamy Mutt. Without entering the
Mutt premises, if a devotee moves around the premises, this Shiv Ling can be
seen somewhat below the ground level through a grill gate. There is also
a big Shiv Ling inside the Bindu Madhav temple premises which, the locals say,
is Pancha Gangeshwar.
Devotees can travel upto Bhaironath
by rickshaw and walk upto this place by enquiring about Tailang Swamy
Mutt. If they travel by boat, they may get down at Panch Ganga Ghat and
climb the steps.
