In Hinduism
Vedanta (school of philosophy)
: WikiPedia: Vedanta碍补谤补峁嘺艣补谤墨谤补 (啶曕ぐ啶｀ざ啶班啶�) or the 鈥渃ausal body鈥� is merely the cause or seed of the subtle body and the gross body. It has no other function than being the seed of the subtle and the gross body. It is nirvikalpa rupam, "undifferentiated form". It originates with avidhya, "ignorance" or "nescience" of the real identity of the atman, instead giving birth to the notion of jiva. The causal body is considered as the most complex of the three bodies. It contains the impressions of experience, which results from past experience.
Vedanta (啶掂啶︵ぞ啶ㄠ啶�, ved膩nta) refers to a school of orthodox Hindu philosophy (astika), drawing its subject-matter from the Upanishads. There are a number of sub-schools of Vedanta, however all of them expound on the basic teaching of the ultimate reality (brahman) and liberation (moksha) of the individual soul (atman).
Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English TranslationK膩ra峁嘺艣腻谤颈谤补 (啶曕ぞ啶班ぃ啶多ぞ啶班た啶�) refers to the 鈥渃ausal body鈥�, representing one of the three types of the body (艣腻谤颈谤补), as defined in the 艢ivapur膩峁嘺 1.18. Accordingly, 鈥渢he body (艣补谤墨谤补) is of three types: the gross (蝉迟丑奴濒补), the subtle (蝉奴办峁补) and the causal (办腻谤补峁嘺). [...] The causal body (办腻谤补峁嘺艣腻谤颈谤补) is for the sake of experiencing the good and bad results of the activities of the J墨va. [...] The J墨va experiences happiness as a result of virtue and misery as a result of sin. The J墨va bound by the rope of activities revolves round and round for ever like a wheel by means of the three types of body and their activities鈥�.
The Purana (啶啶班ぞ啶�, pur膩峁嘺s) refers to Sanskrit literature preserving ancient India鈥檚 vast cultural history, including historical legends, religious ceremonies, various arts and sciences. The eighteen mahapuranas total over 400,000 shlokas (metrical couplets) and date to at least several centuries BCE.
