Shashibhushan Mahadev and Bhidbhanjan Ganpatiji Temple, Somnath Overview

The Bhidbhanjan Mahadev Temple is a serene and sacred shrine dedicated to Lord Shiva, located near the Triveni Sangam Ghat in Somnath. According to local belief, this is the spot where Lord Krishna prayed to Shiva after being struck by a hunter’s arrow, shortly before attaining moksha. The name “Bhidbhanjan” refers to the destroyer of obstacles, reflecting Shiva’s role in guiding Krishna’s soul. Though lesser-known and quiet, the temple exudes a deeply spiritual atmosphere and is visited by pilgrims seeking peace and divine blessings. Its proximity to key sites like Dehotsarg Tirth and Bhalka Tirth makes it an important part of the Krishna pilgrimage circuit in Somnath.
