In Hinduism
Shaivism (Shaiva philosophy)
Source: Wisdom Library: Kubjik膩mata-tantra笔补帽肠补肠补办谤补 (啶啷嵿啶氞啷嵿ぐ):鈥擱epresents of the five internal mystic centres, according to the 办耻产箩颈办腻尘补迟补-迟补苍迟谤补 (or, 办腻诲颈辫谤补办补谤补峁嘺).
- the 顿别惫墨肠补办谤补,
- the 顿奴迟墨肠补办谤补,
- the 惭腻迟峁沜补办谤补,
- the 驰辞驳颈苍墨肠补办谤补,
- and the 碍丑别肠补谤墨肠补办谤补.
In structure these five cakras follow the general principle of a cakra (inward representation of a 尘补峁囜笉补濒补, the representation of cosmic creation). Their centre is the seat of 艢iva in his manifestation as the Nav腻迟尘补苍, accompanied by his 艢akti in her manifestation as Kubjik膩.
In addition, the Brahmanic gods Brahm膩, Vi峁ａ箛u/Ananta, 艢iva, 莫艣vara and Sad膩艣iva are also represented in the centre. The centre symbolizes the (partial) identification of the individual soul with the divine and is, therefore, also the seat of the 辫耻谤耻峁 or 腻迟尘补苍, although this is not always indicated. From this centre outwards a structure of predominantly female deities eveolves who symbolize different aspects of the phenomenal and phonic creation.
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.

It has come forth from the venerable seat of O岣嶀笉iy膩na and is offered to all the Yogin墨s. It has emerged from the oral tradition in order to (impart) the knowledge of the Mah膩rthakrama鈥�.
