In Hinduism
Shaktism (Shakta philosophy)
Source: Google Books: ManthanabhairavatantramKramārtha (क्रमार्थ) refers to the “unmanifest reality of the Krama”, according to the Manthānabhairavatantra, a vast sprawling work that belongs to a corpus of Tantric texts concerned with the worship of the goddess Kubjikā.—The goddess emerges in the ‘pattern of emanation’ through which the maṇḍala and the world, its macrocosmic counterpart, is generated, thus actualizing the inner, unmanifest reality of the Krama (kramārtha), which in its manifest form is geometrically represented by the hexagon. Just as the triangle with its triads and quaternaries represents the potential state, the hexagon with its groups of six represents the active, expanded energy of the goddess in six parts (ṣaṭprakārā).
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.
