Madhubani town, there is a historical and epical place known as Mangrauni. In ancient time, the name of Mangrauni was “Mangalwani” that means “The place of blessings” or “The place of worshippers”. Though there are so many temples in Mangrauni b
ut the “Ekadasha Rudra” is mesmerizing one and probably only one temple of its type in India. In “Ekadasha Rudra” temple, the eleven shivlings is having the eleven forms of shiva – Mahadev, Shiva, Rudra, Shankar, Neel, Lohit, Ishaan, Vijay, Bheem, Bhavodev and Kapali. The specialty of these shivlings is that the work related to his different forms are made or symbolized on the respective shivlings. This unique temple was made by the famous enchanter Late Pundit Muneeshwar Jha in 1946. It is made up of black granite which was imported from Jaipur. Behind the “Ekadash Rudra” shivlings, there is an idol of Lord Shiva and Parvati in “Pleasure Posture” or “Anand Mudra”.According to the Tantric view, in that posture Shiva is teaching Tantra to goddess Parvati but the epical meaning is completely different.
