VAARANASI ALIAS KAASI ALIAS BANARAS
Kasi Yathra is known as Ashta Bhairava Yathrais by Bhairava Worshippers. To remove Kaala Dosha only ( in other words Kaala Bhairava Dhosham) we are doing all rituals at Kaasi -Pithru Karmas, Prayachitha Poojahs etc.,
In Kaasi, at Vritha Kaleshwar Temple Asithaanga Bhairavar is there. Ruru Bhairavar is at Hanuman Ghat, Chanda Bhairavar is at Durga Mandir, Krothana Bhairavar at Kamaakshaa, at Devaraa Village Unmaththa Bhairavar, Lite Bhairavr temple for Kabaala Bhairavar, Bheeshana Bhairavar at Kasipura, Sarva Chathru samhaara Bhairavar at Thrilochana kanj. One who visits Kasi shall visit all the above Ashta Bhairavars Temples and then only the Yathra will be completed. Otherwise Bhairavars present there and still as Security for the City will make the Devotees to repeat visits to Kaasi till they visit Ashta Bhairavars.
