Not only this, a glimpse of Khereshwar Dham temple located in Shivrajpur place of Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh can also be seen in the video. This temple has a special connection with Ashwatthama and what is that connection, let us know-
If we pay attention to the beliefs, Ashwatthama reaches Khereshwar Dham temple in the dark of night to worship Lord Shiva. In the morning, flowers are found placed on the Shivalinga and Abhishek is done. According to Mahant, during the war of Mahabharata period, Ashwatthama murdered the son of Pandavas by deceit. After this, Bhima removed the gem from Ashwatthama’s forehead and made him powerless. Lord Shri Krishna had cursed Ashwatthama that he would live in pain on earth until Mahadev himself freed him from his sins.
People say that strange incidents happen inside the temple premises in the dark of night. The fragrance of incense rises and suddenly the bells start ringing. Many times some people and priests have tried to find out the reason behind this, but if people are to be believed, they lost their eyesight by doing so.
The history of Khereshwar Mahadev Temple located in Chhatarpur village of Shivrajpur dates back to Dwaparayug. During the Mahabharata period, Dronacharya, the guru of Kauravas and Pandavas, himself performed penance for Khereshwar Mahadev. The people here claim that it has been coming continuously for about 36 hundred years and gets lost somewhere before reaching near. Let us tell you that the villagers believe that this is none other than Dronacharya’s son Ashwathama.
Not only this, Pandavas, Kauravas and Karna also received education here. It is believed in Khereshwar Dham that in the Dwapar era, this village used to be the Arayan forest of Guru Dronacharya. It was here that Dronacharya taught the art of weapons to the Pandavas and Kauravas. According to the information, the Shivalinga installed in the temple is about 5 thousand years old. People believe that this Shivlinga has been established since the time of Mahabharata period. Also, the Shivalinga installed in the Khereshwar temple has not been installed by any person.
