托鉢（bhaiṣya）の規則を知る賢き修行者は、人々の中を、すでに食して満ち足りた者のように歩め—煙なき火、かすかな熾火のみ残るがごとく。貪りなく施を求め、同じ家々に日々執着してはならない。かくしてパシュ（paśu）はパーシャ（pāśa：依存と欲望の束縛）をゆるめ、パティ（Pati）たるシヴァへと向かう。
Suta Goswami (narrating Shaiva discipline to the sages of Naimisharanya)
FAQs
It teaches that true Linga worship must be supported by vairāgya and disciplined conduct—alms are taken without greed or dependence, so the worshipper’s mind becomes fit for Śiva (Pati) rather than bound by social craving (pāśa).
Śiva-tattva is implied as the Pati who is free from need and grasping; the sādhaka imitates this freedom by living “as if already fed,” reducing desire so the paśu can align with Śiva’s unbound consciousness.
Bhaikṣya-vrata within a Pāśupata-style discipline: moving for alms without attachment, avoiding repeated dependence on the same donors, and cultivating inner austerity like a smokeless, ember-only fire.
