In Hinduism
Shaktism (Shakta philosophy)
Source: Google Books: ManthanabhairavatantramKṛṣṇājñā (कृष्णाज्ञा) refers to “Kṛṣṇa’s command” according to the Kṛṣṇayāmala.—One of the names of the goddess Lalitā, that is, Tripurasundarī, in the Thousand Names of Lalitā—the Lalitāsahasranāmastotra—of the Brahmāṇḍapurāṇa, is “Command” (ājñā). [...] The Kṛṣṇayāmala, a late mediaeval Tantra, presents Kṛṣṇa as Tripurasundarī’s essential nature and, as the Kṛṣṇayāmala says: “she is under the sway of Kṛṣṇa’s command” [i.e., kṛṣṇājñā-vaśavartin].
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.
