v4.c28.2

THE story of Chaṇḍēśvara, how he worshipped Śiva and attained to the position of the leader of the *bhūtagaṇas* of Śiva, has been given already under Chaṇḍēśānugrahamūrti. The image of Chaṇḍēśvara is essential in a Śiva temple and should be set up in the north-east corner with reference to the central shrine of the temple.
