Shaktism (Shakta philosophy)
: Google Books: ManthanabhairavatantramTrirekha (तà¥à¤°à¤¿à¤°à¥‡à¤�) (Cf. °Õ°ù¾±°ì´Çṇa) refers to a “triangleâ€�, according to the ManthÄånabhairavatantra, a vast sprawling work that belongs to a corpus of Tantric texts concerned with the worship of the goddess KubjikÄå.—Accordingly, “O you who reside at the End of the Eighteen! (You are) also beyond the state of the Transmental. You are ÅšÄåmbhavÄ« who awakens Åšambhu. [...] Born from the limbs of the three lines (of the Triangle) [i.e., ³Ù°ù¾±°ù±ð°ì³ó²¹-²¹á¹…g²¹-²õ²¹á¹ƒb³óÅ«³ÙÄå], you are completely full and reside in the sacred seat in the centre. O KubjÄ«, you are MÄålinÄ« who awakens (Bhairava) the Gander. (When you are) in the Cavity (in the centre), you are sprinkled inwardly by the stream of nectar of the Åšiva principleâ€�

Shakta (शाकà¥à¤�, Å›Äåkta) or Shaktism (Å›Äåktism) represents a tradition of Hinduism where the Goddess (Devi) is revered and worshipped. Shakta literature includes a range of scriptures, including various Agamas and Tantras, although its roots may be traced back to the Vedas.
In Buddhism
Tibetan Buddhism (Vajrayana or tantric Buddhism)
: MDPI Books: The Ocean of HeroesTrirekha (तà¥à¤°à¤¿à¤°à¥‡à¤�) refers to “three linesâ€� (drawn on a circle), according to the 10th-century ḌÄåkÄårṇava-tantra: one of the last Tibetan Tantric scriptures belonging to the Buddhist Saṃvara tradition consisting of 51 chapters.—Accordingly, [while describing the Merit Circle (²µ³Üṇa³¦²¹°ì°ù²¹)]: “[...] The second [layer’s outermost] circle (the Earth Circle) [has] three lines (trirekha). The third [layer’s outermost circle, viz., the Knowledge Circle, has] four lines. The fourth [layer’s outermost circle, i.e., the Body Circle] has five lines. Charnel grounds are on all [outermost circles] in order. He should make [the first, second, and third outermost circles] round in shape. [They are] understood to have grounds such as the outer [ground]. The circle with five lines (the Body Circle) is square [in shape] and is resplendent. [...]â€�.

Tibetan Buddhism includes schools such as Nyingma, Kadampa, Kagyu and Gelug. Their primary canon of literature is divided in two broad categories: The Kangyur, which consists of Buddha’s words, and the Tengyur, which includes commentaries from various sources. Esotericism and tantra techniques (±¹²¹Âá°ù²¹²âÄå²Ô²¹) are collected indepently.

Sanskrit, also spelled संसà¥à¤•ृतमà¥� (²õ²¹á¹ƒs°ìá¹›t²¹³¾), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
