Source: eScholarship: The descent of scripture: a history of the KamikagamaAdbhutaśānti (अद्भुतशान्ति) refers to “pacificatory rites” (to avert evil effects of supernatural or extraordinary occurences), according to the Kāmikāgama: an ancient Śaiva Āgama scripture in 12,000 Sanskrit verses dating to at least the 5th century and represented as an encyclopedic account of ritual instructions (kriyāpāda).—In modern print editions, the Kāmika-āgama is structured in two major parts. The Uttarabhāga consists of 98 chapters (paṭalas) [...] The content of Chapters 30 to 34 is somewhat more heterogeneous. In Chapter 30, the longest chapter of the Uttarabhāga, we find a detailed treatment of expiation rites for all manner of transgressions. Chapter 31 describes pacificatory rites (adbhutaśānti) to avert evil effects of supernatural or extraordinary occurences.
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.
