Katha Charithra:: Answer # 2
Guptkashi
After the Kurukshetra war, Pandavas repent that they had committed sin by fighting with their cousins. They are advised to seek the blessings of Shiva, so that their sins are cleansed and their forefathers attain Mukthi.
They go to Kashi to worship Shiva. Upon reaching Kashi, they realise that the Lord has left for Kailash. Determined to seek his blessings, they go on a mission to find him in Kailash. On reaching the foothills of the Himalayas, they feel the presence of Shiva around them but are unable to locate him. They realise that Shiva was testing their determination. Finally Yudhistra locates Shiva after a long hide and seek and hence the place derives its name 'Guptkashi'; Gupt meaning secret.
Pleased by their devotion, Shiva showers his blessings on Pandavas.
