In Hinduism

Shaktism (Shakta philosophy)

Source: Google Books: Manthanabhairavatantram

Paribhrama (परिभ्रम) refers to “non-spatial or temporal rotary motion”, according to the Manthānabhairavatantra, a vast sprawling work that belongs to a corpus of Tantric texts concerned with the worship of the goddess Kubjikā.—[...] In this way the New Moon, which is as subtle as ‘the pure shade of the Moon’, generates for itself a body. The texts refer to this inner dynamism, fueled by the energy of the New Moon, as the ‘churning’ of the Point in the centre. The energy in the centre of the goddess's maṇḍala is in a state of pure, i.e. non-spatial or temporal rotary motion (paribhrama). It generates bliss and manifests Śrīnātha and the goddess in their differentiated (sakala) iconic form in the centre
