Shaktism (Shakta philosophy)

: Google Books: Manthanabhairavatantram

Lipta (लिपà¥à¤�) means “smeared withâ€�.—The KumÄårikÄåkhaṇá¸a similarly says that the true Kaula yogi is one “who is adorned with all the ornaments or who wears red clothes, or even one who wears whatever he pleasesâ€�. The same verse is found in the KubjikÄåmatatantra but there we find the variant: “whether he is dirty or white (i.e. clean) adorned with clothes and ornamentsâ€�. The distinction between ‘cleanâ€� and ‘dirtyâ€� is still maintained amongst modern NÄåtha yogis who may choose the path of the ‘cleanâ€� ascetic who performs ritual ablutions or one who does not. One is reminded of the satirical representation of the BhairavÄåcÄårya by the 11th century Kashmiri, Ká¹£emendra, who says of him that he is “smeared with faecesâ€� (²µÅ«³Ù³ó²¹-±ô¾±±è³Ù²¹).
