ADI KESHAV
Kashi Khand, Chapter 69 mentions the various forms of Keshav (Lord Vishnu) in Varanasi. Lord Vishnu told Sage Bindu (details given under Bindu Madhav temple) that a devotee who worships him (Lord Vishnu) in the Lord’s form as Adi Keshav finds his sadness being cleansed away and will enjoy only happiness.
By worshipping Adi Keshav the devotee attains Mukti. Adi Keshav has installed Sangameshwar Ling at Varuna Ganga confluence and the former grants Moksha to the devotees.
