In Hinduism
Shaivism (Shaiva philosophy)
: SOAS University of London: Protective Rites in the Netra TantraPracodita (प्रचोदित) or Saṃpracodita refers to “impelling (mantras)� (to be productive), according to the Netratantra of Kṣemarāja: a Śaiva text from the 9th century in which Śiva (Bhairava) teaches Pārvatī topics such as metaphysics, cosmology, and soteriology.—Accordingly, [verse 21.1]—“O Deva, what are mantras composed of? What are their characteristics? What do they look like? What power [do they] possess? What makes them powerful? How are they able [to be effective] and who impels them [to be productive] (ṃpǻ徱ٲ�mantrā� ... kena vā saṃpracoditā�)?�.

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.
