Shaivism (Shaiva philosophy)
Source: SOAS University of London: Protective Rites in the Netra TantraRodhita (रोधित) refers to “(being) enclosed” (with a syllable), according to the Netratantra of Kṣemarāja: a Śaiva text from the 9th century in which Śiva (Bhairava) teaches Pārvatī topics such as metaphysics, cosmology, and soteriology.—Accordingly, [verse 6.21-22]—“The being (jīva), is enclosed (rodhita) with [the syllables] saḥ, etc. [This rests] in the middle of the lotus of the heart, [which] is in the middle of the orb of the moon. [This done, the jīva] escapes from death completely. After [the Mantrin has] enclosed (rodhita) [the jīva] with syllables beginning with saḥ, etc., [the Mantrin] masters the procedure. [That is, he] should visualize [the encircled jīva] in the body. [The afflicted] is sure to become free from all disease, of this there is no doubt”.
Shaiva (शैव, śaiva) or Shaivism (śaivism) represents a tradition of Hinduism worshiping Shiva as the supreme being. Closely related to Shaktism, Shaiva literature includes a range of scriptures, including Tantras, while the root of this tradition may be traced back to the ancient Vedas.
