India history and geography
: Wikipedia: India HistoryGrishneshwar is a Jyotirlinga Mandir of Shiva in Verul village of Aurangabad district, Maharashtra. It is one of the 12 Jyotirlinga Mandirs. The Mandir is a national protected site, one and half kilo meters away from UNESCO World Heritage Site the Ellora Caves, 30 kilometres (19 miles) far north-west of the city Aurangabad, and 300 kilometres (190 miles) east-northeast far from Mumbai. Grushneshwar is mentioned in Shiva Purana, Skanda Purana, the Ramayana and the Mahabharata.
: Heritage Temples: Preservation of a 300 year old Maratha Temple by Tattva Heritage FoundationGhṛṣṇeśvara (घृष्णेश्वर) is the name of a Maratha temple built in the Bhumija/Sekhari style.—In the early 18th century the Marathas power gained ascendency through much of Deccan and the entire subcontinent, and with it, the age of temple construction began. The land of Maharashtra would again be dotted with innumerable Śaiva temples, largely patronized by the Maratha Sardars and this time with a distinct vocabulary of Maratha architecture. While some of the temples built directly by the Maratha royalty would be of the ‘neo� Bhumija and Śekhari style—for example, Ghṛṣṇeśvara temple built in Bhumija style or the Tryaṃbakeśvara temple built in the Śekhari style—but the temples that were built by local Maratha Sardars would be Maratha style architecture.

The history of India traces the identification of countries, villages, towns and other regions of India, as well as mythology, zoology, royal dynasties, rulers, tribes, local festivities and traditions and regional languages. Ancient India enjoyed religious freedom and encourages the path of Dharma, a concept common to Buddhism, Hinduism, and Jainism.
