Guest guest Posted November 17, 2004 Report Share Posted November 17, 2004 I've heard and also read somewhere that God Khandoba is Martand Bhairav. There are many Khandoba temples I guess.

There are many Khandoba temples I guess. Yes, Khandoba is a deity worshipped in Maharashtra, Karnatak and AP, and is commonly identified with Martanda bhairava in the Sanskrit stala puranas of this region and their local language digests. The story goes that Martanda Bhairava incarnated as Khandobha to slay to demons called Malla and Mani. *Jejuri* is the most famous Kshetra of Khandoba and is described in the Purana called Malhari Maahatmyam as M.Bhairava's Jagrt Kshetra. However, this identification is largely unknown to the tribal and nomad worshipers of Khandobha. There is another deity in tribal Maharashtra called Bairoba and another Biroba who are commonly identified with Kala Bhairava and Virabhadra.

It is told in Brahmanda Purana also, and Lalitha tripura sundari Bhashya by Bhaskaracharya..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Durgaputra Posted December 8, 2008 Report Share Posted December 8, 2008 The Khandoba/Martanda Bhairava temple is beautiful. It is on a hill top around 30 kilometers from Pune on the old route to Pandharpur. It is near a small town called Saswad. Turmeric powder is very dear to him. From Pune, you can take a bus to Saswad and then from there to Jejuri- you can also get direct buses from Hadapsar to Jejuri. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
