It is said Lord Kaal Bhairava’s powers lie in the occult sciences and therefore, for occult experts, Bhairava is the most preferred deity. Every Shakti Peeth is guarded by Lord Kaal Bhairav and they are known as Bhatuk Bhairav. Offering such as coconut, sindoor, flowers, mustard oil, black sesame etc. The best and auspicious time to worship Kaal Bhairav is the Rahu kaal period on Sundays between 4:30 PM to 6:00PM. He is kind and easily bestows his devotees with wealth and prosperity.
This depiction is found in all Bhairav temples in India. As he cut off Brahma’s head with his nail, the skull was stuck and is known as Brahma Kapala. Therefore, Kaal Bhairav helps to keep one’s ego in check. It got to a point when sages and scholars had to intervene but Lord Brahma would not back out! Enraged, Lord Shiva took the form of Kaal Bhairav who, in his wrathful avatar, astride a fearsome black dog, charged at Brahma and cutoff his 5th head. However, Lord Brahma refused to quiet down.
It so happened that the male Hindu trinity or Tridevs – Brahma, Vishnu and Mahesh aka Shiva got into an argument – who was the supreme most of all? Lord Shiva stated he was and therefore, Lord Vishnu backed out. As per legends, Lord Kaal Bhairav took form when an enraged Shiva wished to teach Lord Brahma a lesson.
