Parli Vaijnath Jyotirlinga – Travel Xclusive

Overview

Parli Vaijnath Temple in Beed, Maharashtra, is also counted as one of the 12 Jyotirlingas, though some lists vary. Built by Ahilyabai Holkar in the 18th century on a hillock, it is made of stone with a tall deepmala or lamp tower. The name Vaijnath means “Lord of Physicians,” as Shiva is believed to cure ailments here. Legend says the temple was built from a single stone and that nectar from Samudra Manthan fell here. The lingam is swayambhu and the temple has a large courtyard with smaller shrines. Mahashivratri and Vijayadashami see massive yatras with palkhis from villages. The temple is known for its Veerashaiva traditions and has a separate shrine for Goddess Parvati. It is said that visiting Parli after Aundha Nagnath completes the pilgrimage. The hilltop location offers views of the surrounding Marathwada plains. Parli Vaijnath is a center of faith for health and healing.
