Based on Shankara's hymn, Manisha Panchakam, and the story of his encounter with a filthy outcaste who was actually Lord Shiva, taking this guise to teach Shankara an important lesson about bias and discrimination.
According to the non-dual teachings of Advaita Vedanta, the true self, atma, has no caste, no gender, no nationality, no ethnicity, etc. It is the inner divinity that dwells in us all, equally, identically.
