Temple of Lord Mahakaleshwar is situated in Ujjain, Madhya Pradesh, India. The Shiv Linga at Mahakal is believed to be Swayambhu linga. The idol of Mahakaleshwar faces south, and hence is known as Dakshinamurti or Dakshinamurthy – a form of Shiva as Guru (teacher). It is one place where Shakti peeth and Jyotirlingam are together. |
