In Hinduism
Shaivism (Shaiva philosophy)
Source: Shodhganga: Temple management in the ĀgamasTulārohaṇa (तुलारोहण) refers to a certain ceremony performed by Ādiśaiva priests (Ācāryas), as defined in the Śaivāgamas.—In the Tulārohaṇa-dānavidhi-paṭala, the Yajamāna is asked to worship the Ācārya with new clothes and golden ornaments. The hotṛs are also to be worshipped and given dakṣiṇā. They are to be given 100, 50 or 25 niṣkas of gold including the Ṛtviks. All the rest are to be given 10 niṣka each. All the material remnants of the yāga are to be given to the Ācārya. The Śivārcaka is to be worshipped with 50 niṣka of gold265.
Whatever was laid in the Tulā balance (for the purpose of donation) is to be distributed among Brāhmaṇas. Śivabhaktas (of the general public) should be given at least half of that. However, the Ācārya has to be honoured specially and with śraddhā. Prisoners can be released at the time of Tulārohaṇa (when the king is the Yajamāna). Other workers (Karmakāra) should be given one niṣka each . The Yajamāna is considered to be equivalent to Devendra (Indra, the Lord of Devaloka and all the Devas).
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.
