Shaivism (Shaiva philosophy)

[He] shall always attain what he desires (²õ²¹°ł±¹²¹°ģÄå³¾²¹).

Shaiva (ą¤¶ą„ą¤�, Åaiva) or Shaivism (Åaivism) 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.
Yoga (school of philosophy)
: ORA: Amanaska (king of all yogas): A Critical Edition and Annotated Translation by Jason Birch³§²¹°ł±¹²¹°ģÄå³¾²¹ (ą¤øą¤°ą„ą¤µą¤ą¤¾ą¤�) refers to āall desiresā�, according to the Amanaska Yoga treatise which deals absorption, yogic powers and liberation.āThe Amanaska referred to (or qualified) SamÄdhi with several terms, which are all negative; [e.g., it is devoid of all desire (²õ²¹°ł±¹²¹°ģÄå³¾²¹);] [...] The fact that such terminology is found in the Amanaska indicates that descriptions of Åiva and the void-like meditative states in Mantramargic Åaivism, were the basis of the descriptions of SamÄdhi and Paratattva (the highest reality) in this treatise. The Amanaska Yoga was consistent with the PÄtaƱjala YogaÅÄstraās definition of Yoga, yet it described SamÄdhi in terms different to those of PÄtaƱjalayoga; such as Acalaāāthat which is devoid of all desire (²õ²¹°ł±¹²¹°ģÄå³¾²¹)ā�.
