Sanniruddha (सन्निरुद्ध) refers to “being obstructed everywhere”, according to the Kubjikāmata-tantra, the earliest popular and most authoritative Tantra of the Kubjikā cult.—Accordingly, “One who, having abandoned a teacher who is blissful and Command is radiant, goes to another, is obstructed everywhere (sanniruddha), like a king who has lost his kingdom. He who maintains his body (pure), (guards his) knowledge of (the Kaula sacrificial) substances, (looks after the) clothes and vehicles of his teacher is worthy of receiving initiation”.
