Shiva, Shivji first concealed himself at Gupt Kashi, but later
fled from them further up the valley to Kedarnath, where the
Pandavas finally got their wish fulfilled. There are more
tangible connections as well-the Kedarnath pandas (hereditary
pilgrimage priests) live in Gupt Kashi during the winter months,

of Kedarnath passes through Gupt Kashi on its way to Ukhimath

Pandavas after having won over the Kaurava in the Kurukshetra
war, felt guilty of having killed their own brothers and sought
the blessings of Lord Shiva for redemption. He eluded them
repeatedly and while fleeing took refuge at Kedarnath in the
form of a bull. On being followed he dived into the ground,
leaving his hump on the surface. The remaining portions of Lord
Shiva appeared at four other places and are worshipped there as
his manifestations. The arms appeared at Tungnath, the face at
Rudranath, the belly at Madhmaheshwar and his locks (hair) with
head at Kalpeshwar. Kedarnath and the four above-mentioned
