Shiva is a Hindu deity worshipped by Shaivaites in India as well as Pakistan as the destroyer of ignorance spread all across the universe. As one of the three main gods in the Hindu pantheon, there are temples dedicated to his worship in India and Pakistan as well (and abroad). The most prominent of these is the Jyotirlinga temples and Mellacheruvu Swayabhu Shambhulingeshwara Swami. In Shaivism, Shiva is the god of all and is described as worshipped by all, including Devas (gods) like Brahma, Vishnu and Indra, Asuras (demons) like Banasura and Ravana, humans like Adi Shankara and Nayanars, and creatures as diverse as Jatayu, an eagle, and Vali, an ape.

Shri Ratneshwar Mahadev Temple is a Hindu Temple situated at the seaside of Clifton in Karachi. It was constructed more than 300 years ago in a cave in a hill. The Grand Mela (Fair) of Lord Shiva is held for 3 days on Maha Shiva Ratri where more than 25,000 people visit the Temple for celebration and rituals every year. Just like many Muslims believe that Abdullah Shah Ghazi’s shrine next door holds the sea back from flooding the city, Hindus believe that Shiva’s third eye watches over the sea and keeps it in check. The entrance to the Shri Ratneshwar Mahadev Temple is located near the Jehangir Kothari Parade but is not easy to locate if you don't know where to look. There is a saffron flag flying overhead and three snake charmers just outside the entrance. The two inconspicuous staircase entrances downplay the grandeur of the temple, as they lead to as many as six levels below. At the end of the staircase, there is a sign allowing only Hindus to enter. This temple is the most beautiful architectural wonder in this city by the sea. Situated so near the sea, a sweet water spring at its lowest ebb is another of nature’s miracles.

A natural spring stemming and originating at the foot of a mountain near the old town is called ‘Zarano’ in the local dialect. There is also a cave in the mountain on the east side of Nagarparkar, which can accommodate about 25 persons. During emergencies and periods of crisis, the womenfolk was safely put in the cave and the opening of the cave was closed with stones and the men faced the enemies.

Shiv Temple, Sardharo is located at Coordinate: 24°20'30.3"N 70°44'26.4"E, Sardharo village, Tharparkar District, Sindh, Pakistan. The ‘Thar’ Division in Pakistan has an expanse of twenty thousand square kilometers. During the census of this area in the year 1981 A.D., it was revealed that 0.5 million people were settled over there. Geographically, this ‘Thar’ (desert) has been created out of heaps formed from the sandy dunes, saltfish residues, and oysters from the Kutch desert and carried naturally over there over a period of years. The desert of ‘Thar’ was controlled by the ‘Rajput’s’ (a warrior community). Many rulers from Rajput dynasties such as Sodha, Sumera, Sanna, Rathod, etc. ruled here. Mahmud Ghaznavi traversed the Thar desert and came to Somnath for attacking and destroying the temple. During the British regime, one Capt. Recks studied this terrain geographically. According to him, ‘Parinagar’ was an important and large port in the pre-Christian era. A large tributary of the River Sindhu contributed its flow into the Arabian Sea. The river was called ‘Hakdi’ at that time. Subsequently, on account of the onslaught of natural calamities such as earthquakes, the river changed its course and many towns and villages vanished in the blue. The ‘Kutch’ province was created due to turmoil on account of earthquakes and subsequent drying up of the Arabian sea in parts. Sindh has many ancient legacies such as temples, Mathaslamaseries, Kunda's sacred tanks, and such other ancient holy places. The Government of Sindh had published a Gazetteer in the Sindhi language. Mr. Jagdish Rathi, a Sindhi author, sent me a few pages from this Gazetteer. These give an oblique reference to many such holy pilgrimage sites. There is a holy water tank situated at Nagarparkar which owes its origin by dint of the legendary story given in Mahabharata that Bheema kneeled down here. This Kunda admeasures 30′ x 20’ in size.
Shive and Pithoro Temple, is located at Coordinate: 24°40'20.4"N 69°43'40.3"E, Pabuhar, Tharparkar District, Sindh, Pakistan. This temple is dedicated to God Shiva.
