In Hinduism
Shaktism (Shakta philosophy)
Kaul is the name of a clan that migrated to Kashmir around the fifteenth century.—[...] It seems the cult of Śārikā is fairly old, but it has been influenced by the cult of Tripurā or Śrīvidyā. One such influence must have been the Kashmirian Kauls, a clan that migrated to Kashmir not before the fifteenth century and brought their own cults with them, which were then fused with the local Kashmirian cults. The most important figure in this group, Sāhib Kaul, is credited with three ritual handbooks and furthermore fused AdvaitaVedāntic ideas with the Kashmirian Pratyabhijñā.
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.
