Keśin
The Keśin were long-haired ascetic wanderers with mystical powers described in the ''Rigveda'' (an ancient Indian sacred collection of Vedic Sanskrit hymns) Keśin Hymn (RV 10, 136).〔Werner 1995, p. 34.〕 The Keśin ("long-haired one") are described as homeless, traveling with the wind, clad only in dust or yellow tatters, and being equally at home in the physical and the spiritual worlds. They are on friendly terms with the natural elements, the gods, enlightened beings, wild beasts, and all people.〔Werner 1998, p. 105.〕 The Keśin Hymn also relates that the Keśin drink from the same magic cup as Rudra, which is poisonous to mortals.〔Fitzpatrick 1994, pp. 30-31.〕
The Keśin were unusual in the ''Rigveda'' for having an entire hymn dedicated to them—the only hymn in all the vedas that was dedicated to a group completely outside the Brahminical establishment.〔Werner 1977, p. 289.〕 Interpretations of the Keśin Hymn (RV 10, 136) have varied widely over time, from viewing the Keśin as the Sun God (''Surya''), to seeing the Keśin as wild orgiastic imbibers of intoxicants, to a growing interpretation of the Keśin as ascetic mystics showing similarities to shamans and yogis.〔〔Werner 1977, pp. 289-291.〕
==Description==
The Rishis and the ''muni'' Keśin were two distinct types of religious seers in the Vedas. Unlike the Rishis, who took an active part in the Vedic community, the Keśin were described as ''muni'', in its broader meaning of "to think, to muse, to contemplate, to meditate," along with the narrower meaning of being silent. The Rishi priests led prayers and worship as an integral part of the Vedic hierarchy and community. The Keśin were lone ascetics, living a life of renunciation and wandering mendicancy—they were shown as having spiritual power and authority that did not rely on the ritualistic worship and sacrifices of the Rishis. Some scholars see Buddha, whose names included ''Śākyamuni'', as one who arose from the ''muni''-Keśin tradition rather than the Rishi tradition.〔〔〔Flood 1996, p. 78.〕
