UP's Choksi Nath Temple: Mystery of Color-Changing Shivlings & Rain Tradition!

  • Shahjahanpur's Choksi Nath Temple houses two joined, self-manifested Shivlings that mysteriously change colors (blue, brown, black).
  • The temple has been served by the same family for nine generations, starting with ancestor Pandit Sukhlal, who had a divine vision of Lord Bholenath.
  • Devotees believe a glimpse of Mahadev fulfills wishes and protects the region from natural calamities.
  • A unique tradition involves submerging the Shivlings in water during drought, which is believed to invariably bring rain.
  • A grand fair is held on Amavasya, attracting thousands of devotees seeking blessings and obstacle removal.

Why It Matters: Shahjahanpur's Choksi Nath Temple features unique color-changing Shivlings and a rain-bringing tradition.
