In Hinduism

Source: SOAS University of London: Protective Rites in the Netra TantraViṣṇvaiśvarya (विष्ण्वैश्वर्य) refers to the “power of Viṣṇu”, according to the Svacchanda-tantra.—Accordingly, [verse 7.212cd-214ab, while describing the meditation on the kālahaṃsa]—“After [the Yogin] has meditated [on haṃsa] in the right nostril, he obtains the powers of Brahmā. He obtains length of life [and] power equal to [Brahmā]. As a result, he [the Yogin] knows the past. When he [visualizes haṃsa] in the left [nostril], he knows the future and is equal in strength to Viṣṇu. The king of Yogins [gains] a life is as long as Viṣṇu's, [and] obtains power [equal to] Viṣṇu’s (viṣṇvaiśvarya—viṣṇutulyabalaśca saḥ ... tatsamaṃ caitadaiśvaryaṃ tadāyur). [...]”.
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.
