  Goddess Parvaty entreated Lord Shiva to describe various Teerths (sacred ponds/lakes) and deities in Kashi. Lord Shiva told her all Lings are enriched with the divine powers of Teerths.
According to Lord Shiva, Prahladeshwar is a Swayambhu Ling in the vicinity of Swarleeneshwar. Devotees worshipping Prahladeshwar will be amply blessed by Lord Shiva.  (Kashi Khand, Chapter 97)
