Ghrishneshwar Jyotirlinga
Ghrishneshwar stands at Verul near the Ellora caves and is traditionally revered as the twelfth and concluding Jyotirlinga. Its story is of Ghushma, whose patient worship and forgiveness brought Śiva to remain in her name.

Kashi Vishwanath Jyotirlinga
Near the western bank of the Ganga, in the old lanes of Varanasi, Śiva is worshipped as Vishwanath, the Lord of the Universe. Kashi is the city of liberation, where impermanence faced without evasion becomes a doorway to freedom.
Omkareshwar–Mamleshwar Jyotirlinga
On the island of Mandhata in the Narmada, Omkareshwar faces Mamleshwar across the river, and the two shrines are worshipped as one Jyotirlinga. The island itself is contemplated as the sacred syllable Om.
Somnath Jyotirlinga
Somnath, the Lord of the Moon, is celebrated as the first of the twelve Jyotirlingas. Standing at Prabhas Patan on the Arabian Sea, the temple has been destroyed and rebuilt again and again, and its story is one of renewal after surrender.
