In Hinduism
Shaivism (Shaiva philosophy)
: academia.edu: Yakṣiṇ�-sādhana in the Kakṣapuṭa tantraī (अवजाती) or Candrasumatī is the name of one of the thirty-two Yakṣiṇīs mentioned in the Kakṣapuṭatantra. In the ⲹṣiṇ�-Բ, the Yakṣiṇ� is regarded as the guardian spirit who provides worldly benefits to the practitioner. The Yakṣiṇ� (e.g., ī) provides, inter alia, daily food, clothing and money, tells the future, and bestows a long life, but she seldom becomes a partner in sexual practices.

Shaiva (शै�, 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.
Chandas (prosody, study of Sanskrit metres)

The remaining lines of the Avajātis have all of them 9 ٰ in them.

Chandas (छन्दस्) refers to Sanskrit prosody and represents one of the six Vedangas (auxiliary disciplines belonging to the study of the Vedas). The science of prosody (chandas-shastra) focusses on the study of the poetic meters such as the commonly known twenty-six metres mentioned by Pingalas.
