Shaktism

Shaktism is a major tradition within Hinduism that emphasizes the worship of Shakti, the divine feminine energy and power. Hindus who practice Shaktism believe that Shakti is the source of all creation, transformation, and destruction in the universe. This tradition often celebrates various goddesses, such as Durga and Kali, who embody different aspects of Shakti. Devotees engage in rituals, prayers, and meditation to connect with this powerful divine energy, believing that it can lead to spiritual liberation and empowerment. Shaktism highlights the importance of the feminine principle in the spiritual and material worlds.
