Śakti (Energy) is the divine feminine in Hindu tradition, and those who worship her are called Śāktas. She is often called by the generic term Devī (Goddess). Hindus tell many stories about Devī — and her various manifestations are known by specific names, including Durgā, Kālī, Lakṣmī and Sarasvatī. Sometimes Śakti accompanies Śiva or Viṣṇu (as himself and in his incarnations as Rāma and Kṛṣṇa). But Śāktas tend to see the goddess as a powerfully independent figure.
