When should Batuk Bhairav be established at home — which dates matter?
Kaal Bhairav's origin day is Krishna Paksha Ashtami of Margashirsha; Batuk Bhairav's own Jayanti is Ganga Dussehra (Jyeshtha Shukla Paksha Dashami), and He can otherwise be established on any Krishna or Shukla Paksha Ashtami.
What was the first remedy prescribed, and why was it done at a Shiva temple?
With Bhairav Ashtami approaching, the surviving brother was taught the Maha Bhairav Mantra to perform himself — 21 rounds daily for 21 days at a Shiva temple after lighting a lamp, after which he felt internal peace and readiness.
