==Chaturmasya deeksha==
Generally "Parivrajakas" (Dandi Swamis) are to be on the move as the word "Vraja" indicates but during the [[Chaturmas]]a period they have to stay-put in one place.{{Sfn|Deussen| Bedekar | Palsule|1997|p=963}} Moving out either for [[yatra]] or for other reasons is violation of [[Shastra]]s and Yati [[Dharma]]. During this season of Chaturmasya, the wandering mendicants (Yatis) takes Chaturmasya deeksha, stay at a suitable place and become fully engrossed in contemplation of God.<ref>{{cite book|title=Sree Tiruppāvai|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=1XgOAAAAYAAJ|author1=Āṇṭāḷ|author2=C.
