Siva is referred to as 'nakka pirAn' by nammAzhvAr.  The term refers 
to 'one who is without cloths'.  The reasons assigned are: "He has no 
interest in anything", or "He forgets even his body".  If anyone 
knows of the purANic basis for these statements, I would appreciate 
knowing about it.  I am not able to figure out why he got the 
name 'nakka pirAn'.  I am only looking for purANic incidences that 
support the epithet.
