In Hinduism
Shaktism (Shakta philosophy)
Source: Google Books: ManthanabhairavatantramŚāstrakrama (शास्त्रक्रम) refers to the “procedures laid down in the scriptures”, according to the Tantrāloka.—Accordingly, “That master who, even though unformed (akalpita), has by the confirmation (from other masters or scriptures) strengthened (his conviction as to the genuineness of his enlightenment) being thus further purified is Bhairava in person (sākṣāt). This is the case because the personal insight into the knowledge one gains by putting into practice the procedures laid down in the scriptures (śāstrakrama) and (attending) to the wisdom (prajñā) of a master who knows them, is full and perfect (pūrṇa) and so leads to the realisation of one's authentic identity as Bhairava”.
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.
