One is used to seeing Lord Shiva with Three faces, or Linga Swarupa.
We are aware of the five heads of Shiva,
Sathyajaatham,
Vamadevam,
Agora,
Thatpurusha and
Esana.
Surprising to know that there is a Temple near Satara,Maharashtra, where the sculpture of Shiva is found with Four heads.
Koliyak is located at a distance of about 23 km to the east of Bhavnagar. It is said that Pandavas established Nishkalank or Nakalank Mahadev on a new moon night of the Indian calendar month of Bhadarva. The famous fair popularly known as ‘Bhadarvi’ is held on the new moon night in month of Sharvan, as per the Indian calender. An idol of god Shankar was established in an island, over the sea about 3 km to the east of Koliyak. This temple can be reached between 9.00 am to 12.00 pm on the day next to the new moon night. It has to be noted that the place gets inundated under the tide so the visitors should leave the place before 1.00 pm
