Sadashiv Peth, 4th September 2025: Shri Jilbya Maruti Mandal of Sadashiv Peth, Pune—established in 1954—continues its tradition of presenting innovative devotional themes. This year, the Mandal has recreated the divine aura of India’s 12 Jyotirlingas, allowing devotees to experience all the sacred shrines under one roof.
The beautifully designed pandal offers symbolic darshan of each Jyotirlinga, crafted with intricate detailing to reflect the sanctity of the original temples. From Somnath in Gujarat to Grishneshwar in Maharashtra, visitors can embark on a spiritual journey across all twelve shrines without leaving Pune.
Speaking about the theme, the Mandal members said, “We wanted every visitor to experience the bliss of all twelve Jyotirlingas in one place. It is not just a theme, but a way to spread spiritual awareness and devotion among the people.”
Now in its 71st year, Shri Jilbya Maruti Mandal has become a landmark for cultural and devotional creativity in Sadashiv Peth, continuing to inspire faith and foster community bonding.
