The fact that many of the temple's murthis are portrayed as "sky-clad," or nude, has also, over the years, gained Devipuram considerable attention.

In the Digambara sect of Jainism, monks are "sky-clad" and the members of this sect also keep their holy statues naked.

It does rather sadden me that some modern witches are keen to be sky-clad (naked) and free, but as a consequence take off their clothes and have to wear a house!

Śvētāmbara "white-clad" is a term describing its ascetics' practice of wearing white clothes, which sets it apart from the Digambara "sky-clad" Jainas, whose ascetic practitioners go naked.

He bumped into a stark-naked long-bearded fakir and recoiled, doing a respectful namaskar as the sky-clad holy man continued playing his ektara, his wooden bow drawing a piercing monotone from the single-stringed instrument as he rolled his eyes back into his skull, lost in his ecstatic bhakti.
