Any principle, system, method, tool, technique, or practice that is comprehensively and systematically presented is referred to as Tantra.
The term “Tantra” is highly sacred and has many meanings in Sanskrit literature. According to our Vedic texts, the entire science of Tantra is broadly divided into five main categories:
- Vaishnava Tantra: Related to the worship of Vishnu/Narayana.
- Saura Tantra: Related to the worship of the Sun.
- Ganapatya Tantra: Related to the worship of Ganesha.
- Shaiva Tantra: Related to the worship of Shiva.
- Shakta Tantra: Related to the worship of the Goddess.
