Book: A Student's Guide to the History and Philosophy of Yoga
Chapter: Sectarian Developments: Saivism, Saktism and Tantra
Blurb:
The development of yoga philosophy continued outside of Vedānta and Vaisnavism in the various schools of Śaivism and Śāktism, both of which have a more ambivalent relation to brāhmanical orthodoxy than does Vaisnavism. These three traditions and their respective deities dominate, medieval and modern Hinduism.
