Shaivism (Shaiva philosophy)
Source: Wisdom Library: Kubjik膩mata-tantra厂补峁ａ弓丑腻 (啶膏し啷嵿啶�):鈥擭ame of one of the six deities which together form the third of the six groups of the 补峁ａ弓腻惫颈峁兣沘迟颈办谤补尘补 (one of the main components in the worship of Kubjik膩). This group of six deities is also referred to as 鈥榯he auspicious six鈥� (补苍耻驳谤补丑补-峁峁璳补) and is located in the Gha峁璦蝉迟丑腻na. Their names are referred to in the 办耻产箩颈办腻尘补迟补-迟补苍迟谤补 but actually described in the 峁峁璼腻丑补蝉谤补-蝉补峁僪颈迟腻.
Shaiva (啶多啶�, 艣aiva) or Shaivism (艣aivism) 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.
Shiksha (linguistics: phonetics, phonology etc.)

Shaktism (Shakta philosophy)
: Google Books: Manthanabhairavatantram1) 峁峁ａ弓丑补 (啶粪し啷嵿) (Cf. 峁峁ａ弓丑墨艣补苍腻迟丑补) or 峁峁ａ弓丑补n膩tha is the name of a Siddha, according to the Manth膩nabhairavatantra, a vast sprawling work that belongs to a corpus of Tantric texts concerned with the worship of the goddess Kubjik膩..鈥擳he Kum膩rik膩kha峁囜笉a refers to the place where the teachings were originally propagated as U岣峚p墨峁環a. Here the three Siddhas, O岣嶀笉墨艣an膩tha, 峁峁ａ弓丑补n膩tha and Mitran膩tha, received knowledge. As the first of these Siddhas presides over O岣嶀笉iy膩峁嘺 this may be taken to mean that U岣峚p墨峁環a is a separate place. But the texts imply that the first of these three Siddhas remained where the original transmission took place, whereas 峁峁ａ弓丑补n膩tha went to P奴r峁嘺giri and Mitran膩tha to K膩mar奴pa, where they founded separate seats. Again, we find that the first sacred seat, which is normally said to be O岣嶀笉iy膩na or the 鈥榮eat of O峁傗�� (辞峁僰腻谤补辫墨峁环补), is also called U岣島 [U岣島p墨峁環a] or O岣嵞� [O岣嵞玴墨峁環a].
2) 峁峁ａ弓丑补 (啶粪し啷嵿) refers to one of the 鈥渟ixteen Siddhas鈥� belonging to the Divyaugha or Gurvogha (鈥渃urrent of the teachers鈥�), as discussed in the Yogakha峁囜笉a of the Manth膩nabhairavatantra.鈥擺The seven Siddhas] are followed by the Nine Siddhas. There are three in the sky, the netherworlds and on the earth. The Sixteen Siddhas are their spiritual sons. They are born from S奴ryadeva and are located in the body.鈥斸耿a峁ａ弓丑补鈥檚 location in the body are the 鈥渢highs鈥�. He is further associated with Sandohaka of the Divy膩divya (鈥渄ivine-cum-mortal current鈥�) and with Karp膩sa of the Siddhaugha (鈥渢he current of the Siddhas鈥�).
3) 峁峁ａ够纺� (啶粪し啷嵿啶�) refers to one of the Consorts of 叠丑补颈谤补惫墨艣补: one of the Nine N膩thas according to the Kulakaulin墨mata.鈥擳he Nine N膩thas propagated the Western Transmission noted in the Kubjik膩 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.鈥數蟛咕卑贡鼓洸� is the Cary膩 name of this N膩tha (i.e., the public name the Siddha uses when living as a wandering renouncer). His consorts are 峁峁ａ够纺� and Cidr奴p膩mb膩 [Alternatively according to the Kubjik膩nity膩hnikatilaka, Gagan膩mb膩 and Candr膩mb膩].
Shakta (啶多ぞ啶曕啶�, 艣膩kta) or Shaktism (艣膩ktism) 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.
