Shri Asht Bhairav Darshan Yatra

Kala Bhairav is the guardian deity of Kashi. He occupies the position of a guard/ watchman with a dog as his vehicle, and is regarded as one of the forms of Shiva himself. In Kashi, there are 8 Bhairav temples, collectively called AshtaBhairav. These are – Kala Bhairav, Dhandapani, Veera Bhairav, BatukBhairav, AashuBhairav, AanandaBhairav, Rudra Bhairav and RuruBhairav. These comprises of the Shri Asht Bhairav Darshan Yatra.

Among these, Kala Bhairav is the most important one, visited by all those who visit Kashi. Dhandapani, or the one who wields a stick, is the one who decides on the punishment, while Kala Bhairav is the one who enforces his decision. In the words of our guide, Dhandapani is the commissioner, while Kala Bhairav is the constable. As usual, it is the constable who is more feared, than the commissioner himself!

The specialty of this temple is the sacred thread available there. These threads, known as Kashi threads, are supposed to ward off evil forces, and are in great demand.
