JATOLI TEMPLE HISTORY :-

Jatoli Shiv Temple was established in 1008 by Swami Krishnananda Paramahamsa Maharaj. It is said that Sri Swami Krishnanand Paramahamsa came to Jatoli in 1950. And he started the temple construction work in 1974. It has been many years since the Inca temple was built, but the work is still going on. The temple at Jatoli was established in 1973 by Swami Krishnananda Paramahamsa who died in 1983. After Sri Swami Krishnanand ji took Samadhi then the temple management committee continued the construction of this temple and it is said that the temple works didn’t end.

Architectural Significance of Jatoli Temple
Jatoli Shiv temple architecture is in a typical style of Indo Aryan and the top tower is rounded with a curved outline. The apex of such a temple is decorated with a golden urn. Later the temple was slightly altered in Dravidian style. The temple is built with three rows of pyramids. The upper part of the temple structure is called Shikhar. The pyramids were built in ascending order of height. The second part of the temple is called Vimana, which is slightly lower than the Shikhar Pyramid. On the base of the first pyramid, Ganesha is seated, while on the second pyramid is the sculpture of Sheshnag. On the base of the third pyramid a trident is placed separately on each side.

Apart from Ganesha on the top pyramid, Shesh Nag on the second pyramid and Trishul on the third pyramid, there are also sculptures of many gods and goddesses on the front and side of the temple. The spire of the temple stands at a height of 111 feet at the core of the pyramid and thus makes it the tallest temple in Asia. This temple took about 39 years to build and now, it remains one of the most important and sacred temples in Indian history.
