END OF THE WORLD.....very INTRESTING FACT about HARISHCHANDRESHWAR TEMPLE..This is the cave of Kedareshwar (Maharashtra) in which there is a big Shivlinga, which is totally surrounded by water. It is quite difficult to reach the Shivlinga because the water is ice-cold. As you can see from the picture, there is a huge rock above the Shiva Linga. There were 4 pillars built around the Shiva Linga.It is said that the pillars were built to depict the four Yugas of Life - SATYA YUGA, TRETHA YUGA, DWAPARA YUGA and KALI YUGA. When a Yuga comes to the end of its time, one of the pillars apparently breaks down. Three of the pillars have already broken down. The general belief is that the current phase is the KALI YUGA and the day the fourth pillar breaks down - it will be looked to as the last day of the current era. Another interesting thing about this place is that water is said to seep into this temple from the four walls on an everyday basis. And owing to the water being very chilly, its difficult to reach inside too. The water continues to seep in during all the seasons in the year, except during rainy season and surprisingly, it is also said that there is absolutely no water there during rainy seasons alone
