Thus, this is the lineage of the Siddhas characterized (upalakṣita) as that of the teacher and the god. The Śāmbhava awakening dawns by the descent of (his) Command (onto his disciple)”.
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.
