In Hinduism
Shaktism (Shakta philosophy)
: Google Books: Manthanabhairavatantramṇḍ (क्रियाकाण्�) refers to “rites�, according to the Manthānabhairavatantra, a vast sprawling work that belongs to a corpus of Tantric texts concerned with the worship of the goddess Kubjikā.—Accordingly, while describing the signs of one who is not a Siddha: “He is excessively tall, bald, deformed, short, dwarfish, his nose is ugly or he has black teeth and is wrathful . Some of his limbs are missing and is deceitful, cripple and deformed, foolish, inauspicious, envious, deluded, badly behaved, and violent; without any teacher, he is devoid of the rites [i.e., ṇḍ-Ծܰٲ], he maligns the Krama without cause, he is not devoted to the Siddhas, he (always) suffers and is without wisdom. He is (always) ill and one should know that he is (always) attached (to worldly objects) and has no scripture. He has no energy and is dull and lazy. Ugly, he lives by cheating and, cruel, he is deluded, and devoid of (any) sense of reality. Such is the characteristic of one who is not accomplished (asiddha) in a past 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.
Pancaratra (worship of Nārāyaṇa)
: archive.org: Catalogue of Pancaratra Agama Textsṇḍ (क्रियाकाण्�) refers to the second part of the śṃh: an important Pāñcarātra text of 8700 verses followed closely by the Ranganathaswamy temple at Srirangam—dealing with priestly concerns such as their daily routines, occasional liturgies and expiatory services.—Description of the chapter [śٰ屹]: [...] The Pārameśvara was originally one lakh of śǰ첹 in length. From that one lakh (i.e., 100,000 verses), Śāṇḍilya says he will extract the essence in two parts, ñԲṇḍ and ṇḍ and pass on the knowledge to Sanaka in 16,000 śǰ첹. In this treatment all the essentials will be covered: the six qualities of God; the ū, the vibhavas, etc.; the forms and natures of Viṣṇu’s retinue; His ornamentation and attendants; His abode and how to prepare it; the nature of īٳ, its mundane attachments and its final release; and the secrets of mantras, ܻ, yoga, etc. all in the ñԲṇḍ. Moreover, daily routines, occasional observances, expiations, and all temple-oriented activities will be dealt with in the ṇḍ (91-113).

Pancaratra (पाञ्चरात्र, pāñcarātra) represents a tradition of Hinduism where Narayana is revered and worshipped. Closeley related to Vaishnavism, the Pancaratra literature includes various Agamas and tantras incorporating many Vaishnava philosophies.
