An interesting testimony from the sanatkumāra saṃhitā of pāñcarātra āgama - seems to be describing a paramahaṃsa sannyāsī as an "advaita-nirata" who carries ekadaṇḍa and discards śikhā & yajñopavīta (as translated by Robert Leach in his PhD thesis) https://archive.org/details/Sa...
अद्वैतनिरतो नित्यं रागद्वेषविवर्जितः । शिखां यज्ञोपवीतं च परित्यज्य निरुत्सुकः ॥ ३७ ॥ भैक्षभुङ् नियताहारो ब्रह्मचर्यव्रते स्थितः । स स्यात् परमहंसाख्यस्तन्त्रकर्मणि निष्ठितः ॥ ३८ ॥ Pāñcarātra Āgama Sanatkumāra Saṃhitā, 5th chapter of Brahmarātra
