In Hinduism
Shaivism (Shaiva philosophy)
Source: Wisdom Library: Śaivism۲ṣaīٳ (यक्षतीर्�) is the name of a īٳ (sacred bathing place) that is associated with the ۲ñś Liṅga (symbolical manifestation of Śiva). This place represents the fifty-first of the sixty-four ṅg mentioned in the Nepalese Tyasaphu (a folding book or leporello). At each of these spots Śiva is manifest as a Liṅga. Each of these ṅg has its own specific name, mantra, set of rituals and observances, auspicious time etc.
The auspiscious time for bathing at the Yakṣa-tīrtha near the Yajña-īśvara-liṅga is mentioned as “māgha-kṛṣṇa-caturdaśī� (latin: magha-krishna-caturdashi). This basically represents the recommended day for bathing there (Բ徱Բ).

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.
