In Hinduism
Shaktism (Shakta philosophy)
Source: Google Books: ManthanabhairavatantramPrastuta (प्रस्तुत) refers to the “promulgation (of one’s doctrine)”, according to the Ambāmatasaṃhitā verse 8.66cd-68.—Accordingly, “Ṣaṣṭhanātha promulgated (prastuta) his own practice in Pūrṇagiri. Along with him I am worshipped in the Kramamaṇḍala as that certain (inscrutable energy), the Equal One. And in this way the Transmission of the Youth, that is, the family of the Middle Lineage (came into being). Once the first worship of the Krama has been performed, the First Lord (ādyanātha) and (his) sacred seat abide initially in the body. One should know that this is the Yoga which is both supreme (transcendent) and inferior (immanent). [...]”.
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.
