In Hinduism
Ayurveda (science of life)
Source: Wisdom Library: 膧yurveda and botany碍耻肠别濒腻 (啶掂啶む啶班ぞ啶椸啶�) is a Sanskrit word referring to a vegetable (艣腻办补), according to Caraka in his Carakasa峁僪it膩 s奴trasth膩na (chapter 27), a classical Ayurvedic work. It is sometimes identified as P膩峁環膩, which is the Sanskrit name for Cissampelos pareira (velvetleaf), from the Menispermaceae family, but Caraka specifically lists 碍耻肠别濒腻 as being part of the 艢膩kavarga group of vegetables.
膧yurveda (啶嗋く啷佮ぐ啷嵿さ啷囙う, ayurveda) is a branch of Indian science dealing with medicine, herbalism, taxology, anatomy, surgery, alchemy and related topics. Traditional practice of 膧yurveda in ancient India dates back to at least the first millenium BC. Literature is commonly written in Sanskrit using various poetic metres.
Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
: archive.org: Puranic EncyclopediaKucela (啶曕啶氞啶�).鈥擲ud膩man, better known as Kucela was a brahmin class-mate of 艢r墨 K峁涐梗峁嘺 at the 膧艣rama of sage S膩nd墨pani. One day S膩nd墨pani鈥檚 wife deputed Kucela and K峁涐梗峁嘺 to collect fire-wood from the forest, and they had to stay the whole night there as they could not find out the way back to the 膩艣rama due to heavy rain, thunder etc. After their education was over these two thick friends left the 膩艣rama and went their different ways in life.
艢r墨 K峁涐梗峁嘺 became the lord of Dv膩rak膩, and Kucela a house-holder with many children, and starvation gripped the family. One day, at the instance of his wife, Kucela started for Dv膩rak膩 to visit K峁涐梗峁嘺 with a packet of rice flakes as a present to him. K峁涐梗峁嘺 received his old classmate most cordially, and ate one handful of rice flakes from the packet brought by Kucela. Rukmi峁嚹� prevented him from a second helping of the flakes. After spending some time most happily with his old friend, Kucela started homewards. Only on his way back did he think that K峁涐梗峁嘺 had not given him any monetary help. But, by the time he reached home his old dilapidated house had converted itself into a beautiful mansion, and his wife and children were in great happiness. 艢r墨 K峁涐梗峁嘺鈥檚 blessings thus converted poor Kucela into a very rich person. (Bh膩gavata, 10th Skandha).

[Sanskrit to German]
Sanskrit, also spelled 啶膏啶膏啶曕啶むぎ啷� (蝉补峁僺办峁泃补尘), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
