In Muktananda's book "Play of Consciousness", he tells of a Saint he
used to visit named Zipruanna.  Here's how he describes his first visit
with him (p. 104):

"The first time I visited him, he was defecating in a corner; as I
approached, he began to rub his faeces ["pas*aa" -- side] all over his body.  I sat down
quite close to him and found that he emitted a sweet fragrance -- he
didn't smell bad at all.  The next time I went to see him, he was
sitting on a rubbish dump.  Even then the filth would not touch him. I
didn't have the courage to go up close; so I stood at a distance.
After a little while, he came down off the rubbish heap.  I washed his
feet.  A fragrance like the ashtagandha (a fragrant herb) was coming
from his body."
