In Hinduism
Shaktism (Shakta philosophy)
: Google books: Genesis and Development of Tantra (Shaktism)Changing (one’s form) is denoted by the Sanskrit term Parivartana, according to the Siddhayogeśvarīmata: an ancient Sanskrit text devoted to cults of Goddesses as the Vidyāpīṭha or Vidyā Corpus.—In the Siddhayogeśvarīmata, the objectives of rituals are classified as siddhis [e.g., twelve kinds of black magic () such as changing one’s form (rūpasya parivartanam)]. They belong to the category of supernatural phenomena and seem to be considerably different from the types of wish people expected to gain from the Vedic rituals that still remained within the sphere of everyday life.

Shakta (शाक्�, 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.
