Who is Kalabhairava?

Introduction to Kalabhairava baba

Kala (काल): This word means "Time" and also "Death." He is the master of time, the one who is beyond time, and the one who embodies death.
Bhairava (भैरव): This means "terrible," "fearsome," or "formidable." His form inspires awe and fear, but this fear is not for the devotee. It is a fear that destroys the devotee's own inner fears, ego, and attachments.

But don't be deceived by his visual depictions of old and new made by AI. He is not a malevolent deity; rather, his fearsome form is like a coconut. Hard shell with a soft center of a Guru.

Roles and Qualities

He is the ultimate Guru of Shakti Vidya(5th Veda).
He is the ever present companion and GPS of the Shakta Path.
He guides us to rise above fear, ego, ignorance, and negativity. See the world as witness and rise above the mundane.
He is the supreme guardian (firewall) of the sacred state of Kashi (Ma Kali).
He is not a mere Kshetrapala but rather the "great filter" you have to go through to attain oneness with MA Kali (Kashi, read her 1000 names). Which implies intracies of shakti vidya of any kind are lost unless Kalabhairava baba finds you true and lets you in.
He grants detachment and vairagya.
He hastens the internal samundramanthan (churning) of his bhaktas by taking all the negatives (poison) that arises in their quick uphill journey towards a state of balance (Kashi).
He grants adhara to bhaktas by strengthening their spiritual spine. Allowing them to be free, unconstrained and unlocking the power of their birth designs.
He grants moksha while still being alive(mukti).
He hastens bhaktas spiritual growth by connecting them to their own advanced self in different timelines and in parallel realities of the multiverse.
He is Kalipriya, so by association you come into the eyes of cosmic creator MA Adya Mahakali and the entire ethereal army serving her.

Jai Kalabhairav Baba
