Bhairava (Sanskrit: meaning 'terrible'), or Kala Bhairava, is a deity revered in both Shaivite and Vajrayāna traditions among Hindus and Buddhists. In Shaivism, he is recognized as Shiva's powerful manifestation or avatar. Specifically in Kashmir Shaivism, Bhairava symbolizes the Supreme Reality, equivalent to Para Brahman. He is often referred to as Dandapani, which means "he who wields the rod," since he carries a danda to punish wrongdoers. Additionally, he is known as Svaśva, translating to "he whose vehicle is a dog."

In Vajrayana Buddhism, he is viewed as a fierce manifestation of the bodhisattva Mañjuśrī and is also known by names such as Heruka, Vajrabhairava, Mahākāla, and Yamantaka.

Bhairava is venerated across various regions, including India, Nepal, Indonesia, Sri Lanka, Japan, and Tibetan Buddhism.
