Tilbhandeshwar Mahadev
Pandey Haveli · Bengali Tola
History & traditions
The guide’s Ekadash Rudra account ends with Tilbhandeshwar in Bengali Tola. Singh’s inventory gives a different final name and place, Tilaparneshvara at the Durga temple precinct. Both records are useful when comparing pilgrimage traditions, and the route should be agreed locally.
Deity & sacred image
- Deity or sacred figure
- Shiva in the form listed as Tilbhandeshwar Mahadev

- The survey records a Shiva linga at this stop. Ask locally about the current shrine and darshan.
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
Compare the names carefully if you are following the full Rudra pilgrimage. The translated text ends the sequence with Tilaparneshvara. The Bengali Tola Tilbhandeshwar stop comes from a different local route identification.
