In Hinduism
Vaishnavism (Vaishava dharma)
“Commentary” can be denoted by the Sanskrit term bhāṣya, ṭīkā.—It is included in the English glossary section of the translation of the Brahma-samhita.

Vaishnava (वैष्णव, vaiṣṇava) or vaishnavism (vaiṣṇavism) represents a tradition of Hinduism worshipping Vishnu as the supreme Lord. Similar to the Shaktism and Shaivism traditions, Vaishnavism also developed as an individual movement, famous for its exposition of the dashavatara (‘ten avatars of Vishnu’).
