PILGRIMAGE CONTEXT
The Ekadash Rudra yatra
The Ekadash Rudra yatra honours Shiva at eleven lingas. The Kashi Khanda records the pilgrimage, and Singh’s field survey matches the traditional names to neighbourhood shrines and house codes. A local name may be easier to recognise on the ground than the one used in the Sanskrit list.
SKANDA PURANA
In the Kashi Khanda
The eleven-shrine yatra opens with rites at Agnidhra’s tank and then names the lingas in order. The place notes explain how a traditional Sanskrit name is matched to a modern shrine in the field survey.
