In Hinduism
Shaktism (Shakta philosophy)
Source: Google Books: ManthanabhairavatantramMahāsiddharatnāmbā (महासिद्धरत्नाम्बा) refers to one of the Consorts of Vīrānanda (one of the Nine Nāthas) according according to the commentary on the Ṣaṭsāhasrasaṃhitā.—The Nine Nāthas propagated the Western Transmission noted in the Kubjikā Tantras. Although each Siddha has a consort with which he shares some part of his spiritual discipline, she is not considered to be his wife. Thus, from the perspective of his identity as an initiate, he is not a householder.—Vīrānanda is the Caryā name of this Nātha (i.e., the public name the Siddha uses when living as a wandering renouncer). His consort is Mahāsiddharatnāmbā [Alternatively Siddhā according to the Kulakaulinīmata and Mahāsiddharatnāmbā according to the Kubjikānityāhnikatilaka].
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.
