In Hinduism
Shaivism (Shaiva philosophy)
: Brill: 艢aivism and the Tantric Traditions笔补帽肠腻惫补蝉迟丑补 (啶啷嵿啶距さ啶膏啶�) or simply 础惫补蝉迟丑腻 refers to the 鈥渇ive mystic states鈥� (i.e., 鈥榖liss鈥�, 鈥榓scent鈥�, 鈥榯rembling鈥�, 鈥榮leep鈥�, 鈥榳hirling鈥�), as cited in the 莫艣varapratyabhij帽膩vimar艣in墨 (KSTS vol. 65, 330).鈥擜ccordingly, 鈥淸...] Thus, due to practicing [this insight], the qualities of His consciousness, which are aspects of 艢akti, fully penetrate [those various levels], causing the [various] powers to arise. But even without practice, in the [rare] case of an instantaneous immersion into That, one obtains the state of liberation-in-life through the process of the direct experience (腻惫颈谤产丑腻惫补苍补) of [the Five Mystic States] [i.e., 辫补帽肠腻惫补蝉迟丑补]: Bliss, Ascent, Trembling, Sleep, and 鈥榃hirling,鈥� which means Pervasion鈥�.
Note: Gnostic realization is here inseparably wedded to the 辫补帽肠腻惫补蝉迟丑补 [辫补帽肠腻惫补蝉迟丑腻岣�] or Five Mystic States that we see repeatedly in the Kaula scriptures. This emphasis on direct experience (腻惫颈谤产丑腻惫补苍补) demonstrates that Abhinava鈥檚 understanding of the path of the 箩帽腻苍墨 is not one of intellectual or conceptual realization, but rather one of insights into the nature of reality so powerful that they spontaneously bring on psychophysical experiences.
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.
Shaktism (Shakta philosophy)
: Google Books: Manthanabhairavatantram笔补帽肠腻惫补蝉迟丑补 (啶啷嵿啶距さ啶膏啶�) refers to a 鈥渇ive-fold state鈥�, according to the 峁玨膩 (commentary) on 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.鈥擜ccordingly, 鈥淸...] Once (the god) had known himself here in the company of the goddess, he assumed a five-fold state (辫补帽肠腻惫补蝉迟丑补), that is, Kula consisting of the five gross elements and was (thus) endowed with a body. Again, initially (everything) was as if void. [...]鈥�.
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.

[Sanskrit to German]
Sanskrit, also spelled 啶膏啶膏啶曕啶むぎ啷� (蝉补峁僺办峁泃补尘), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
