History Behind Pasupati Nath Temple

 Pashupatinath is one of the holiest temples dedicated to Lord Shiva, known as Pashupati, the lord of all living beings. It is located in Kathmandu behind the Bagmati riverbank. The temple is a key pilgrimage site, especially during Maha Shivaratri, a major Hindu festival celebrating Shiva. Devotees from Nepal, India, and other countries visit the temple during this time. The temple complex was designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1979 as part of the Kathmandu Valley.

The exact date of the temple's construction is still being determined, but it is believed to have existed since at least the 5th century. Some legends suggest it could be much older, dating back to the prehistoric Kirat period. The current temple structure was built in the 17th century after the original one was destroyed by termites.

The ghats of the Bagmati River near the temple are used for cremation, and the site is believed to help liberate the soul. The temple area is also a center for learning and has numerous ashrams where students and scholars study the Vedas, astrology, and other religious books and Knowledge.
