Note 113 — Chapter II · HEROIC GODLINGS
Reading edition
It is said that this god once entered the mouth of Gorakhnath and performed religious austerities in that strange abode. Although Gorakhnath was nearly suffocated, he could only persuade Kāl-bhairav to come out by extolling his glory and by conferring on him the leadership of all bhuts and the guardianship of the Kotvālu fortress at Kāshi.113
