Lord Shiva is named as 'neel kanthak' (with blue neck) and 'ashutosh' (one who fulfills all the wishes'. Lord Shiva is the most revered god of Hindus. Shiv Linga is one of the linga's according to the mythology, but it's not the part of Jyotirlinga as all the 12 jyotirlinga's are in the divine light of Jyoti.

As per the Hindu mythology, the one who has the pure heart and had devoted himself to lord Shiva will only be able to see that Jyoti of 'Dwadash Jyotirlinga's'.

Here are the 12 temples, where you can worship all the Jyotirlinga's. Our history says that a person, who accomplishes darshan of all the Dwadash Jyotirlinga will get rid of all the illusion of this world.

Mythology says that chanting of Jyotirlinga shloka will make your worship more fruitful. The shloka is:

“Saurashtre Somanathamcha Srisaile Mallikarjunam|
