Shaivism (Shaiva philosophy)
Source: SOAS University of London: Protective Rites in the Netra TantraMonarchs and Mantrins approach rites to conquer death in very different ways. For a Monarch, these rites should allow him to continue to rule through the prolongation of life, attainment of wealth, and a prosperous family. To achieve these aims, the king employs a Mantrin to perform complex rituals. When the Mantrin seeks to conquer death for himself, he turns to contemplative practice.
