In Hinduism
Shaivism (Shaiva philosophy)
Source: archive.org: Vijnana Bhairava or Divine ConsciousnessVivekajamārga (विवेकजमार्ग, “the path of distinction or discrimination”).—Pātanñjala-yoga and Śāṅkara-vedānta have adopted the Vivekaja-mārga by which the Puruṣa or Ātmā (the Self) is islotaed from prakṛti (in the case of Pātañjala-yoga) or from māyā (in the case of Vedānta). The word Yoga does not mean union in Patañjali’s system; it means samādhi or intense abstract meditation (as Vyāsa puts it in his commentary, ‘yuji samādhau’).
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.
