Source: Wisdom Library: Skanda-purana첹岹ԳٲԱś (एकदन्तविघ्ने�) is short for Ekadanta (one-tusked), one of the fifty-six ⲹ첹 according to the Kāśīkhaṇḍa from the Skanda-purāṇa (4 2.57). Worshipping this ⲹ첹 (Աś) is part of a sacred pilgrimage (ٰ) route which centers around Kāśī (Vārāṇasī): a holy city in India. His esoteric position within the Kāśīmaṇḍala and the geographic position of his actual shrine is given by Rana Singh in his Banaras (p. 189) ().
Ekadanta and the other ⲹ첹 (Աśs) are described in the Skandapurāṇa (the largest of the eighteen ܰṇa), which narrates the details and legends surrounding numerous holy pilgrimages (īٳ-ٳⲹ) throughout India. It is composed of over 81,000 metrical verses with the core text dating from the before the 4th-century CE.
