User:Kalinkaar Dipendra/Vishwamitra Ashram, Nepal
Vishwamitra is one of the greatest sage of ancient Nepal, also known by the name of Himvat khanda.
In the bank of Sunkoshi river, nearby Rakathum lies the temple of Vishwamitra. It is believed that the Great sage Vishwamitra meditated here and also discovered the powerful Gayatri mantra. In this temple lies the shivalinga established by the sage himself known as Vishwamitraeshwar Mahadev.
The Himavat khanda mentions about the ashram of vishwamitra. It states "there where the river koshi flows with great speed, there where lies the Adilinga of Lord Mahadev, there lies the Ashram of Sage Vishwamitra, who is the son of Sage Gadhi".
On the other side of river sunkoshi lies the temple of Kusheswor Mahadev (where there is the Aadilinga) and Durgatirtha. This place represents the first of the sixty-four liṅgas mentioned in Nepal.
