Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi visited Pashupatinath Temple and performed special pooja in his last visit to Nepal. Writing message on the visitor’s book after the worship, Indian PM expressed ecstasy on visiting the famous Hindu shrine. Unofficial translation of the message The Pashupatinath Temple situated on the banks of Bagmati River is a unique center of faith and belief. Kashi Vishwonath and Pashupatinath are same; it has been mentioned in Himawat Khanda (section) of Skanda Puran. I am feeling ecstatic coming here on Ashtami Tithi of Shukla Paksha in Shrawan month. May the graciousness of Pashupatinath continue to prevail on people of both Nepal and India; this is what my wishes are.
