So Chetra is fundamentally a geographical area where a deity or a divine force decides to interact or stay. So that is the Chetra of the deity. It's like a house of the deity. So for example, Kashi is a Chetra of Shiva, Kamakhya is a Chetra of Kamakhya, Mahakamakhya, Ujjain is a Chetra of Mahakal, okay?

Similarly, Vrindavan is a Chetra of Krishna. He was born there and all that.
