Shiva is a Hindu god worshipped by Shaivaites as the Supreme Being and universal destroyer-of-ignorance. As one of the three main gods in the Hindu pantheon, there are temples dedicated to his worship across the Indian subcontinent—primarily India and its union territories along with Bangladesh, Bhutan, Nepal and Pakistan as well as in other South and Southeast Asian countries with significant Hindu populations (like Cambodia, Indonesia—primarily BaliMalaysia, Singapore and Sri Lanka). The most prominent of these temples are the Jyotirlinga temples and Mellacheruvu Swayabhu Shambhulingeshwara Swami, Telangana.
