Practicing (the teachings) of the book in the middle of that (fish), he (will become) powerful (dīptimat). He will see (reality) once seen that unique and excellent teaching”.
Shakta (शाक्त, śākta) or Shaktism (śāktism) represents a tradition of Hinduism where the Goddess (Devi) is revered and worshipped. Shakta literature includes a range of scriptures, including various Agamas and Tantras, although its roots may be traced back to the Vedas.
