Source: Google Books: Manthanabhairavatantramkṣamāśrita (नादरूपा) refers to “abiding patiently”, according to the Kulakaulinīmata (verse 2.161cd-163).—Accordingly, “She who, having contracted (her limbs), has entered into (the body) is thus said to be Kubjikā. O mistress of the God of the gods! She whose form is Sound abides (thus) patiently (kṣamāśritā). She is said to be the supreme goddess of Mitranātha when quitting (the Liṅga). The god always (feels) friendship (for the goddess) and she is in (his) body. Then he is called Mitra, the great manifestation of the Siddhas”.
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.
