Pūjyabhūta (पूज्यभूत) refers to an “object of worship”, according to the Ādisūtra section of the Kularatnoddyota, one of the earliest Kubjikā Tantras.—Accordingly, [verse 13.17-18ab]: “[...] The divine and non-divine current of the Krama has three modalities. They are, according to the names given to divisions of the lineages whose glories have been revealed by the tradition of the path of the Siddhas, (the sequences of) the Eldest, the one called the Middle One and (the sequence of the) Child. O goddess, having done this everything in the teaching is an object of worship (pūjyabhūta) and removes all impurity”.
