Sadhguru: Although I do not usually visit temples, I happened to go to the Mahakaleshwar Jyotirlinga in Ujjain. The temple has been vandalized in many ways in the last few centuries. Invaders demolished the temple and it was rebuilt two or three times, but still, if you sit there, this little form, just a small piece of stone that has been sitting there for thousands of years, will completely blow you away. It is reverberating as if it was made yesterday. If you know how, you can completely reorganize the constitution of your system and rewire your system in the presence of a linga like that.
The Mahakala temple and the linga that is consecrated there are of a phenomenal nature. It will shake you from the root of your existence. It is an incredible consecration, done just for the purpose of dissolving you in some way. There is a certain flagrance to the way he finds expression, with a raw forcefulness. One must be ready to go into this temple properly because it is of tremendous power and not for the faint-hearted.
Every day, the offering that needs to happen to Mahakala is fresh ashes from the cremation grounds because that is what he likes and what keeps it going the way it is going. This is not just a cultural aspect. There is a science to it. Experientially, the difference between ashes from the cremation ground and some other ash is phenomenal. It is very important that this process is continued because that is the nature of Mahakala. The very presence of this Mahakala rupa is such that when you go there, everything is burnt into ashes. That means you become free from the physical. It propels you towards your ultimate liberation.
If you want to do that gently, then there is a dimension of Mahakala in the Dhyanalinga. But it is cloaked so that it will be available only to those who seek. But if you want to do it in a forceful way, if you really want to be pushed hard and you are not faint-hearted, then the Mahakala temple is a phenomenal process.
