Choti Kashi

Choti Kashi Gola Gokrannath Temple dedicated to Lord Shiva. But, on the way, Ravana left the Shiva-ling for some time with a devotee. The Shivling got installed there.

According to legend, Lord Shiva, delighted by the penance done by Ravana in the Treta Yug, directed him to install a Shivling in Lanka with the instruction that it should not be put on land. He was unable to bear its weight and put it on the land. Ravana, when returned, got very angry and pressed the ling with his thumb. Then Shivling took the shape of a human ear. The thumb impression of Ravana i

s still present on the Shivling. The place derived its name from this incident.
