膧gamas are the means of self realisation (s膩dhana艣膩stra) and to that effect they recommend a particular way of life and teach the practical method and discipline for attaining self-realisation. It is theoretical and practical and this teaching agrees with cosmological and philosophical thought of human life. It also governs the particular method of worship in temples and rituals and religious function celebrated at home. 1.2 CLASSIFICATION OF AGAMAS The leading schools of religion are the Saiva, 艢膩kta and Vai峁ａ箛ava sects. Every religion and its literature has its own sub-division. For instance, the sub-division of Saiv膩gamas are: P膩艣upata, K膩ru峁噄kasiddh膩nta and K膩p膩lika. In another list K膩lamukha replaces K膩ru峁噄kasiddh膩峁噒a.' The S膩kta 膧gama is of two kinds, namely Dak峁�i峁嚹乧膩ra and V膩m膩c膩ra. The latter enjoys disrespectful position as it treats objectionable practice.
