Divyamūrti (दिव्यमूर्ति) refers to “those having divine forms”, according to the Kularatnoddyota, one of the earliest Kubjikā Tantras.—Accordingly, [verse 9.44-48ab]: “[...] [Siddhanātha] will also have two types of disciples, those with divine (divyamūrti) and those with mortal forms [divyāś cādivyamūrtayaḥ]. O goddess, from aeon to aeon in (many) greater cosmic ages they are the protectors of the unfailing Command in accord with the nature of (each particular) age”.
