Śaiva
शैव
/SHAHY-vah/Tantra
The tradition centered on Śiva — pure consciousness, the unchanging witness. Śaiva tantra recognizes consciousness as fundamentally static, luminous, and free. The KALKI system integrates both Śākta and Śaiva perspectives: Śakti as the transformative power, Śiva as the witnessing awareness that observes the transformation.
