In Hinduism
Shaktism (Shakta philosophy)
Source: Google Books: ManthanabhairavatantramVyaktaliṅgin (व्यक्तलिङ्गिन्) refers to “one who has manifest outer signs” (of his attainment and practice), according to the Kulapañcāśikā, an unpublished text attributed to Matsyendranātha teaching secrecy (quoted by Kṣemarāja in his commentary on the Śivasūtra 3.26).—Accordingly, “Even though they know the three times and are capable of attracting the three worlds, they conceal their practice and guard (the teaching) that has come from (their) Kula. Seeing one who does not have manifest outer signs (of his attainment and practice) [i.e., avyaktaliṅgin] the rays (of the deity) converge (upon him). O beloved, they are most hidden and so do not approach one who bears outer signs”.

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.
