In Hinduism
Shaktism (Shakta philosophy)
: Google Books: Manthanabhairavatantram1) 艢补惫补谤补 (啶多さ啶�) is the God associated with J膩landhara, one of the sacred seats (辫墨峁环补), according to the Manth膩nabhairavatantra, a vast sprawling work that belongs to a corpus of Tantric texts concerned with the worship of the goddess Kubjik膩.鈥擭ote: We observe that the Goddess in each seat is a 艢ava谤墨 and the god a 艢补惫补谤补. The 艢补惫补谤补s are one of a number of tribes who are commonly associated with the deities, major and minor, in many Tantric traditions of this sort, both 艢aiva and Buddhist. Implicit in these associations is that these deities [i.e., 艢补惫补谤补], in this case those of the sacred seats, are related to tribal ones.
2) 艢补惫补谤补 (啶多さ啶�) refers to one of the eight Servants (肠别峁璦-补峁ａ弓补办补) associated with P奴r峁嘺giri or P奴r峁嘺辫墨峁环补 (which is located in the northern quarter), according to the Manth膩nabhairavatantra.鈥擺...] The eight servants: Pulinda, 艢补惫补谤补, Unmatta, Pal膩艣ana, Ul奴ka, M膩谤墨ca, Sumatta, Bhaya峁僰ara.

Accordingly, 鈥渋n regard to Buddha鈥檚 mundane qualities (濒补耻办颈办补驳耻峁嘺), no one is able to attain them because he has rooted out dreadful things at their very roots. These dreadful things are: (2) a low place of birth (苍墨肠补箩腻迟颈-蝉迟丑腻苍补), for example: 颁丑枚-辫鈥檕-濒辞 (艢补惫补谤补, note by Kum膩raj墨va: 鈥榯he land of the naked ones鈥�)鈥�.

India history and geography

: Project Gutenberg: Castes and Tribes of Southern India, Volume 1Savara refers to one of the vernacular languages and dialects of Southern India.鈥擲avara is the language of the Savaras of Ganjam and Vizagapatam. One of the Munda languages. Concerning the Munda, linguistic family, Mr. Grierson writes as follows. 鈥淭he denomination Munda (adopted by Max M眉ller) was not long allowed to stand unchallenged. Sir George Campbell in 1866 proposed to call the family Kolarian. He was of opinion that Kol had an older form Kolar, which he thought to be identical with Kanarese Kallar, thieves. There is absolutely no foundation for this supposition. Moreover, the name Kolarian is objectionable, as seeming to suggest a connexion with Aryan which does not exist. The principal home of the Munda languages at the present day is the Chota Nagpur plateau. The Munda race is much more widely spread than the Munda languages. It has already been remarked that it is identical with the Dravidian race, which forms the bulk of the population of Southern India.
: Notices of Sanskrit Manuscripts, volume 3, part 1: SaduktikarnamritaSavara (啶膏さ啶�) (of Saka峁璱) is the name of a Poet mentioned in the 13th century Saduktikar峁嚹乵rita by 艢谤墨dhara D膩sa (son of Va峁璾 D膩sa) who was a chief over several districts (called a 尘补丑腻尘补峁囜笉补濒颈办补).鈥擳he Sadukti-Karnamrita is a collection of miscellaneous verses by different authors and on various subjects, five verses being devoted to each subject. There are 446 poets identified (for example, Savara) some of which in the feminine gender (intended for females) while others are of Buddhist monks etc.
The history of India traces the identification of countries, villages, towns and other regions of India, as well as mythology, zoology, royal dynasties, rulers, tribes, local festivities and traditions and regional languages. Ancient India enjoyed religious freedom and encourages the path of Dharma, a concept common to Buddhism, Hinduism, and Jainism.
