In Hinduism
Shaktism (Shakta philosophy)
: Google Books: Manthanabhairavatantram峁岣峚艣补办补濒腻 (啶粪啶∴ざ啶曕げ啶�) refers to the 鈥渟ixteenth energy鈥� according to Abhinavagupta鈥檚 Par膩tri峁兣沬k膩vivara峁嘺:鈥擳he Lord (ever united with his power of emission) emanates the universe. The power of emission (惫颈蝉补谤驳补艣补办迟颈) extends from the Earth to 艢akti and from (the consonant) Ka to K峁. This is said to be (am膩 办补濒腻) the sixteenth energy (峁岣峚艣补办补濒腻) in the following verse: 鈥淲ith the Person made of consciousness, that is, 艢iva who consists of the sixteen energies (办补濒腻), the sixteenth energy is known as the 鈥榚nergy of nectar鈥� (补尘峁泃补办补濒腻)鈥�. This is not the view of either the S膩峁僰hya or the Ved膩nta, but only of the 艢aiva scriptures (艣腻蝉迟谤补). The supreme Lord's power of emission (惫颈蝉补谤驳补艣补办迟颈) is the seed of the highest beatitude.
