 According to Kashi Khand, Chapter 69, the place where Lord Shiva wore the skin of Gajasur after slaying the latter, was called Rudra Vasam. (Kindly refer to Krithi Vaseshwar).Once the Lord, in his form as Krithi Vaseshwar, was sitting alongwith Goddess Uma Devi when Nandi offered his prayers and stated that there are 68 places of worship dedicated to Lord Shiva in this holy place. Various idols/Shiv Lings have been brought from several other places by Nandi and installed in Kashi.

In the vicinity of Swarleeneshwar, devotees can find Vimaleshwar. Devotees who worship this Ling will attain Siddhi (divine powers). In the present day parlance, the devotees will be highly respected and be capable of meeting various challenges.
