The Omkareshwar tour which is covered by various religious spots takes you to the famous Omkareshwar Jyotirlinga. One of the 12 adored Jyotirlinga in India, the divine Omkareshwar Temple is dedicated to Lord Shiva. According to mythology, there are many stories related to the history of the temple. It is believed that Narad (son of Brahma), once visited the Vindhya Parvat and told him that the Meru Parvat was bigger than him. This made Vindhya Parvat anxious. Out of determination to be bigger than Meru, Vindhya Parvat started penance to please Lord Shiva; as a result, Lord Shiva appeared here and blessed him with the boon of continued growth on the condition that it would not trouble his devotees with its growth. However, Vindhya soon forgot the condition and grew so much that it protects the sun and the moon. All deities then approached sage Agastya for help. Sage Agastya and his wife made a trick and took a promise from Vindhya that he would not grow until they returned. Vindhya agreed. The Sage and his wife left and they never returned. It is also believed that on a request from all the gods, Lord Shiva had himself divided the same linga which was worshipped by Vindhya Parvat into two parts, one in Omkareshwar and the other in Mamaleshwara. 

Another famous story talks about a huge war between the Gods and the Demons. Yes, it’s said that Lord Shiva rose out of the ground in the form of Omkareshwar to defeat Demons.
