The Mahamrityunjay Temple in Mandi holds historical significance as it was first constructed in 1637 CE by Raja Suraj Sen. The construction was later continued by Raja Sidh of Mandi.
The changing facial expressions of Lord Shiva's idol influence devotees' spiritual experience by evoking peace, faith, and a sense of divine connection.
Based on the available information, there is no mention of other temples globally where deities are worshipped in idol form instead of Shivling, similar to Mandi's temple.
