81.BROTHER MOUNTAIN.

Once, when Lord Brahma and Lord Vishnu quarreled between themselves as to who is the greatest, they came to conclusion that whoever finds the extremities of Lord Shiva is the greatest. Vishnu tried to find the foot of the Vishvarupa of Lord Shiva and Brahma tried to find his head by flowing above. Eventhough both of them tried very hard, they were not able to find it. Vishnu accepted that he was not able to reach the feet of Shiva. Bur Brahma refusing to accept defeat, cheated by lying that he had seen Lord Shiva's head. He used a flower which was floated away in air from Lord Shiva's head as proof that he had seen his head. Lord Shiva, angered by this, cursed that Brahma must have no more temples in Earth. After this incident, Lord Shiva in his Vishvarupa, took up the form of a mountain and the mountain is being worshipped till date.

Identify the place in which this mountain is located and why am I posting this question today?
