About

Modern scholars say that the absence of Kalbhairav's name in Krityakalpataru proves that the worship of Kalabhairav ​​is modern, not ancient. In Krityakalpataru also, there is an indication of hair falling on Kapalmochan Tirtha and there is also a mention of a Shivling by the name of Kapaleshwar. Similarly, there is description of Shiva Linga named Bhairaveshwar and Bhairav ​​Koop. This greatness of Bhairaveshwar has also been told that there is no rebirth in the world after seeing him. From this it is clear that Bhairav ​​was worshiped in Kashi even from the time of Krityakalpataru.
