In Hinduism
Shaivism (Shaiva philosophy)
Source: SOAS University of London: Protective Rites in the Netra TantraSvoccārā (स्वोच्चारा) refers to “she whose utterance is automatic” and is used to describe Śakti, according to the Netratantra of Kṣemarāja: a Śaiva text from the 9th century in which Śiva (Bhairava) teaches Pārvatī topics such as metaphysics, cosmology, and soteriology.—Accordingly, [verse 22.17cd-18]—“By means of that [saḥ], she [śakti] is constantly full, [she is] the full oblation. He is known as Śiva, the holder of power, who acts through her. Namely, [she is] the one supreme Śakti, whose nature is will (icchā), knowledge, (jñāna), and action (kriyā). [She] arises spontaneously [and her] utterance is automatic (svoccārā). [She] exists in one’s very nature, is one's very nature, and is self-arisen”.
Shaiva (शैव, śaiva) or Shaivism (śaivism) represents a tradition of Hinduism worshiping Shiva as the supreme being. Closely related to Shaktism, Shaiva literature includes a range of scriptures, including Tantras, while the root of this tradition may be traced back to the ancient Vedas.
