In Hinduism
Shaktism (Shakta philosophy)
Source: Google Books: ManthanabhairavatantramSatyabhāva (सत्यभाव) refers to “authentic existence” according to Abhinava’s Tantrāloka.—Accordingly, as Abhinava teaches: “Abandon all application (avadhāna)! What are you applying yourself to? Try to understand this for yourself: application to that which is full and perfect makes no sense, nor can that which is not full and perfect every attain to authentic existence (satyabhāva). Those who sanctified thus by the supremely real consciousness firmly affirmed (within them), and who are established on the path of the Absolute (anuttara), are independent of all means”.
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.
