Description

[edit]

The Narmadeshwar Nath Mahadev Mandir is located on the bank of the sacred Dhouns River near the Bharat - Nepal Maitri Chhath Ghat. During the festival of Sawan Sombari, thousands of devotees carry the holy water from the sacred Uttarvahini flow of the Dhouns river located in Matihani of the neighboring country Nepal and perform the sacred Jalabhisheka ritual on the Shivalinga of the temple. They chant the holy slogans like "Bol Bam" and "Har Har Mahadev" during the journey between the sacred river and the temple.[4]
