In Hinduism
Shaivism (Shaiva philosophy)
Source: Wisdom Library: 艢aivism搁耻诲谤补迟墨谤迟丑补 (啶班啶︵啶班い啷�啶班啶�) is the name of a 罢墨谤迟丑补 (sacred bathing place) that is associated with the 惭补峁単补濒别艣惫补谤补 Li峁単a (symbolical manifestation of 艢iva). This place represents the thirty-ninth of the sixty-four 蝉颈诲诲丑补濒颈峁単补蝉 mentioned in the Nepalese Tyasaphu (a folding book or leporello). At each of these spots 艢iva is manifest as a Li峁単a. Each of these 濒颈峁単补蝉 has its own specific name, mantra, set of rituals and observances, auspicious time etc.
The auspiscious time for bathing at the Rudra-t墨rtha near the Ma峁単ala-墨艣vara-li峁単a is mentioned as 鈥減h膩lguna-艣ukla-pa帽cam墨 caitra-k峁涐梗峁嘺-caturda艣墨鈥� (latin: phalguna-shukla-pancami caitra-krishna-caturdashi). This basically represents the recommended day for bathing there (蝉苍腻苍补诲颈苍补).
搁耻诲谤补迟墨谤迟丑补 is also mentioned as the forty-ninth 罢墨谤迟丑补 in the same list but associated with the Goloke艣vara-li峁単a. The auspicious bathing time is mentioned as 鈥渃aitra-k峁涐梗峁嘺-峁峁ａ弓h墨 m膩gha-艣ukla-a峁ａ弓ami k膩rttika-k峁涐梗峁嘺-a峁ａ弓am墨鈥� (latin: caitra-krishna-shashthi magha-shukla-ashtami karttika-krishna-ashtami).
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.
