c7.32
At Gorakhmandi, both celibates (maṭhadārīs) and householders (gharbārīs) are found.² Married Yogīs are called also Bindi-nāgi, saṃyogī and gṛhasta. In the Himālayas many householders are found, and in some instances the pūjārī rights at their temples are kept in the family, being handed down from father to son.
