ಶ್ರೀ ಭೈರವ ಚಾಲೀಸಾ
श्री भैरव चालीसा in Kannada · ಕನ್ನಡ
ಮೂಲ & ಕಥೆ
Traditional Hindi devotional chalisa · Sundardas · Devotional era
When Brahma grew proud, Lord Shiva manifested as Kaal Bhairav — Time and death personified — and humbled him, then took up residence in Kashi as its eternal Kotwal, the fierce guardian who rides a dog and bears the trident. Fearsome in form yet tender to the devout (worshipped also as the boy Batuk Bhairav), he is the swift destroyer of fear, sin and evil. This Chalisa, composed by the poet Sundardas, praises him in forty verses.
✦ ಶಾಸ್ತ್ರಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಹೇಳಿದಂತೆ
It is said that no pilgrimage to Kashi is complete without the darshan of Kaal Bhairav, its Kotwal, who keeps the ledger of every soul — and that when he brings down his staff, even the greatest sins are destroyed. Devotees facing fear, enemies, legal trouble or black magic light his four-faced lamp on Kalashtami, recite this Chalisa, and feed a dog in his name.
