Dwadasa Jyotirlingas

These are photos of Dwadasa Jyotirlingas with their stotras in a Shivalayam in my home town kakinada. 2 hours back i went to a Lord Shiva temple in kakinada and taking these photographs at there. Now everywhere arrangements made for devotees because tomorrow i.e. on 27th February, 2014 is "Maha Shivaratri" festival. Here in this temple also arrangements are prepared for tomorrow's festival. I am taking these photos at there.

These Dwadasa Jyotirlingas photos and stotras are carved in stone by indicating number to each of those Jyotirlinga and stotra mentioned in telugu language.

I am taking these photos with my digital camera.

Below (this) is the complete stotra of Dwadasa Jyotirlingams. 

I am using this storam from the website of wikipedia.org  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jyotirlinga
