Shri Trimbakeshwar Temple
Overview
Tryambakeśvara at Trimbak, near Nashik, is one of the twelve Jyotirliṅgas, set where the Godāvarī rises from Brahmagiri. The Shri Trimbakeshwar Devsthan Trust (Public Trust A-405, registered 1954, with a board headed by a District Judge) administers the temple.
Sthala Purāṇa tradition · sacred narrative
Per the Koṭirudra Saṃhitā, the sage Gautama, seeking expiation for the unintended killing of a cow, worshipped Śiva at Brahmagiri and prayed for the Gaṅgā to descend and purify the land. Śiva remained as Tryambakeśvara, and the Gaṅgā descended as the Godāvarī — the Gautamī.
