Anulipta (अनुलिप्त) refers to “being entangled” (in particular activities), according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.4.4 (“Search for Kārttikeya and his conversation with Nandin”).—Accordingly, as Nandīśvara said to Kārttikeya and the Kṛttikās: “[...] In the matter of omnipresence in the universe you alone are Viṣṇu, O Śiva’s son. The all-pervading sky is not pervaded by anything else. A Yogin is not entangled (anulipta) [yogīndro nā'nuliptaśca] in the activities of nurturing himself. The soul is not involved in the physical activities. [...]”.
