ٱṣṭ� (द्वेष्टृ) refers to “those who have aversion� (towards the sense-objects), according to the Aṣṭāvakragītā (5th century BC), an ancient text on spirituality dealing with Advaita-Vedānta topics.—Accordingly, [as Aṣṭavakra says to Janaka]: “[...] When the mind is freed from such pairs of opposites as, ‘I have done this�, and ‘I have not done that�, it becomes indifferent to merit, wealth, sensuality and liberation. One man is abstemious and averse to the senses (ṣaⲹ-屹ṣṭ�), another is greedy and attached to them [virakto viṣayadveṣṭā rāgī viṣayalolupa�], but he who is free from both taking and rejecting is neither abstemious nor greedy. [...]�.
