Khegati (खेगति) refers to the “attainment of flight”, according to the Ādisūtra section of the Kularatnoddyota, one of the earliest Kubjikā Tantras.—Accordingly, [verse 13.35-40]: “[...] Now, after this, Vṛkṣanātha himself will again certainly establish manifold authority in the fifth sacred seat after going there. There will again be a descent of Siddhas divided into (groups of) nine and sixteen. Once this has taken place, he will again attain Flight (khegati) by the Command of Mitreśvara. [...]”.
