He observes the five-fold Yoga of the beginning, continuity and fulfilment, the innate [i.e., sahaja] and the one born from universal being; he sees the omnipresent universe”.
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.
