Daruka, who performed severe penance to please Parvati. Parvati was pleased with her penance and gave her a forest. This forest was very miraculous. He followed Daruka wherever she went. In this forest Daruka lived with her husband Daruk. Both Daruka and Daruk were very proud of their power. These two were brutally torturing all the people. Many Brahmins were killed by him. Some Brahmins were banned. A Brahmin among the banned Brahmins was a devotee of Shiva. In prison he started worshiping Lord Shankara. When the demon Daruk realized this, he threatened to kill the Brahmin Shiva devotee and left. After some time the Brahmin Shiva devotee started worshiping Shankara again. As soon as Daruka realized this, he came running. He broke the worship with a kick. He started killing Brahmins. After that all the Brahmins prayed to Shankara. At that moment Mahadev was pleased with his devotees and killed Daruka and the Daruka demons. Then Mahadev told the Brahmins that I will live here forever in the form of Nagesh Jyotirlinga. The same place is today famous as Nagnath or Nagesh Jyotirlinga. The forest surrounding the temple is called Darukavan.
