Ś屹岹Գٲ (श्यावदन्�) refers to “one who has brown teeth�, representing an undesirable characteristic of an Ācārya, according to the 9th-century Hayaśīrṣa-pañcarātra Ādikāṇḍa chapter 3.—The Lord said:—“I will tell you about the Sthāpakas endowed with perverse qualities. He should not construct a temple with those who are avoided in this Tantra. [...] Nor should he have leprosy, deformed nails, white leprosy, brown teeth (ś屹岹Գٲ), be a consumptive, one born in Kacchadeśa, or from Kāverī or Koṅkana. [...] A god enshrined by any of these named above (viz., ś屹岹Գٲ), is in no manner a giver of fruit. If a building for Viṣṇu is made anywhere by these excluded types (viz., ś屹岹Գٲ) then that temple will not give rise to enjoyment and liberation and will yield no reward, of this there is no doubt�.
