Shadows Of Flying Birds: Somnath Temple, dedicated to Lord Shiva and one of the 12 Jyotirlingas in India, was built in gold by Lord Soma (Moon). The temple was destroyed seven times and it rose to its splendid glory through the hands of Hindus, like a Phoenix bird. Somnath Temple is situated at Somnath on the shores of the Arabian Sea, on the western coast of Gujarat.
