In Hinduism
Shaktism (Shakta philosophy)
Source: Google Books: ManthanabhairavatantramTritrika (त्रित्रिक) refers to “three triads”, according to the Manthānabhairavatantra, a vast sprawling work that belongs to a corpus of Tantric texts concerned with the worship of the goddess Kubjikā.—Accordingly, “The Transmission (krama) is said to be of three kinds—gross, subtle and supreme. (It is) the Triple Thorn (consisting of the modalities of) the Individual Soul (āṇava), Energy (śākta) and Śiva (śāmbhava) as the third. (These correspond respectively to) the Supreme (para), Middling (parāpara) and Inferior (apara) (levels). (The wise) know that the one Transmission of Lineages, divided (thus) into three triads (tritrika), is threefold”.
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.
