In Hinduism
Natyashastra (theatrics and dramaturgy)
Source: Wisdom Library: N膩峁瓂a-艣膩stra笔谤补肠腻谤补 (啶啶班啶距ぐ) refers to a set of three rules used in the playing of drums (辫耻峁补谤补) [with reference to M峁沝a峁単a, Pa峁嘺va and Dardura] according to the N膩峁瓂a艣膩stra chapter 33.
The following are the three 辫谤补肠腻谤补蝉:
- 厂补尘补-辫谤补肠腻谤补,
- 痴颈峁尘补-辫谤补肠腻谤补,
- 厂补尘补惫颈峁尘补-辫谤补肠腻谤补.
Natyashastra (啶ㄠぞ啶熰啶ざ啶距じ啷嵿い啷嵿ぐ, 苍腻峁瓂补艣腻蝉迟谤补) refers to both the ancient Indian tradition (shastra) of performing arts, (natya鈥攖heatrics, drama, dance, music), as well as the name of a Sanskrit work dealing with these subjects. It also teaches the rules for composing Dramatic plays (nataka), construction and performance of Theater, and Poetic works (kavya).
Vedanta (school of philosophy)
: ORA: Amanaska (king of all yogas): (Advaita Vedanta)笔谤补肠腻谤补 (啶啶班啶距ぐ) refers to the 鈥渕ode鈥� (of mind or no-mind), according to the M膩峁囜笉奴kyopani峁tk膩rik膩 3.37.鈥擜ccordingly, while discussing the no-mind state: 鈥淭he mode (辫谤补肠腻谤补) of [this no-mind] mind which is restrained, free of thought and intelligent should be known. The other [mode of mind] in deep sleep is not the same as that鈥�.
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).
Yoga (school of philosophy)
: ORA: Amanaska (king of all yogas): A Critical Edition and Annotated Translation by Jason Birch笔谤补肠腻谤补 (啶啶班啶距ぐ) refers to the 鈥渕ovement (of the breath)鈥�, according to the Yogat膩r膩val墨: a short Yoga text of twenty-nine verses presenting Ha峁環ayoga as the means to R膩jayoga (i.e., Sam膩dhi).鈥擜ccordingly, while describing the no-mind state: 鈥淲hen the movement of the breath (艣v膩sa-辫谤补肠腻谤补) is quashed through the prolonged restraint of the mind and senses, the bodies of the best Yogins become still like a lamp in a windless place and their minds are immersed in the no-mind [state]鈥�.
Yoga is originally considered a branch of Hindu philosophy (astika), but both ancient and modern Yoga combine the physical, mental and spiritual. Yoga teaches various physical techniques also known as 膩sanas (postures), used for various purposes (eg., meditation, contemplation, relaxation).
In Buddhism
Mahayana (major branch of Buddhism)
: academia.edu: A Study and Translation of the Gaganaga帽japarip峁沜ch膩1) 笔谤补肠腻谤补 (啶啶班啶距ぐ) (Cf. A辫谤补肠腻谤补) refers to 鈥渁ctivity鈥�, according to the Gaganaga帽japarip峁沜ch膩: the eighth chapter of the Mah膩sa峁僴ip膩ta (a collection of Mah膩y膩na Buddhist S奴tras).鈥擜ccordingly, 鈥淪on of good family, the morality of the Boddhisatvas becomes purified by these eight qualities. [...] Further, as for the purity of morality, [...] open space has no distinguished marks, and no distinguished marks is also that the morality; open space has no activity (a辫谤补肠腻谤补-gagana鈥�a辫谤补肠腻谤补峁� gagana峁�), and no activity is also that morality; open space is beyond discursive thinking, and the beyond discursive thinking is also that morality; [...]鈥�.
2) 笔谤补肠腻谤补 (啶呧お啷嵿ぐ啶氞ぞ啶�) refers to 鈥淸mental] activity鈥� (as opposed to A辫谤补肠腻谤补鈥斺�榳ithout [mental] activity鈥�), according to the Gaganaga帽japarip峁沜ch膩: the eighth chapter of the Mah膩sa峁僴ip膩ta (a collection of Mah膩y膩na Buddhist S奴tras).鈥擜ccordingly, 鈥淲hat then, son of good family, is the recollection of renunciation (迟测腻驳补-补苍耻蝉尘峁泃颈), which is authorized by the Lord for the sake of the Bodhisattvas? What we called renunciation (迟测腻驳补) is to abandon and renounce any material thing. Why is that? [...] That which is without haughtiness is without apprehending. That which is without apprehending is without [mental] activity (a辫谤补肠腻谤补). That which is without [mental] activity is without information by thinking. [...]鈥�.
Mahayana (啶す啶距く啶距え, mah膩y膩na) is a major branch of Buddhism focusing on the path of a Bodhisattva (spiritual aspirants/ enlightened beings). Extant literature is vast and primarely composed in the Sanskrit language. There are many 蝉奴迟谤补蝉 of which some of the earliest are the various Praj帽膩p膩ramit膩 蝉奴迟谤补蝉.
