The 艢补颈惫腻驳补尘补蝉 represent the wisdom that has come down from lord 艢iva, received by P膩rvat墨 and accepted by Vi峁ａ箛u. The purpose of revealing 耻辫腻驳补尘补蝉 (e.g., Sudanta 膧gama) is to explain more elaborately than that of 尘奴濒腻驳补尘补蝉 (e.g., Vimala-膩gama) and to include any new idea if not dealt in 尘奴濒腻驳补尘补蝉.
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.
