In Buddhism
Mahayana (major branch of Buddhism)
Source: Wisdom Library: Maha Prajnaparamita Sastra1) 础苍腻蝉谤补惫补 (啶呧え啶距じ啷嵿ぐ啶�) or An膩sravendriya refers to the 鈥減ure faculties鈥�, according to Mah膩辫谤补箩帽腻p膩ramit膩艣膩stra (chapter 2).鈥擜ccordingly, 鈥淸Question.鈥擶hy do Buddhist 蝉奴迟谤补蝉 begin with the word evam, 鈥榯hus鈥�?]鈥擺...] Endowed with hands, the man who goes to a jewel mountain (ratnaparvata) gathers the jewels (ratna) at will. In the same way, the believer, penetrating into the Buddha鈥檚 doctrine鈥攖his jewel mountain that contains the pure faculties (补苍腻蝉谤补惫补-颈苍诲谤颈测补), the powers (bala), the path of enlightenment (产辞诲丑颈尘腻谤驳补) and the 诲丑测腻苍补蝉鈥攖he believer, I say, is able to take [anything] he wishes. [...]鈥�.
2) 础苍腻蝉谤补惫补 (啶呧え啶距じ啷嵿ぐ啶�) or 础苍腻蝉谤补惫补sukha refers to 鈥減ure happiness鈥�, according to Mah膩辫谤补箩帽腻p膩ramit膩艣膩stra (chapter 31).鈥擜ccordingly, 鈥溾�楾here are two kinds of happiness (sukha): impure (蝉腻蝉谤补惫补) happiness and pure (补苍腻蝉谤补惫补) happiness鈥�. Impure happiness is lowly, vile, perverse and bad; pure happiness is excellent. [...] Pure happiness being excellent, wisdom (辫谤补箩帽腻) abounds there and, as wisdom is abundant there, it can eliminate attachment (补产丑颈苍颈惫别艣补). In the impure happiness, it is the fetters (蝉补峁儁辞箩补苍补), thirst (迟峁涐梗峁嚹�), etc., that abound, and thirst is the root of attachment (补产丑颈苍颈惫别艣补m奴la). The true wisdom (bh奴ta辫谤补箩帽腻) [inherent in pure happiness] is able to eliminate attachment. That is why it is not attached to [the pure happiness]鈥�.
3) 础苍腻蝉谤补惫补 (啶呧え啶距じ啷嵿ぐ啶�) or 础苍腻蝉谤补惫补辫谤补箩帽腻 refers to 鈥減ure wisdom鈥�, according to Mah膩辫谤补箩帽腻p膩ramit膩艣膩stra (chapter 31).鈥擜ccordingly, 鈥減ure wisdom (补苍腻蝉谤补惫补-辫谤补箩帽腻) always considers (补苍耻辫补艣测补迟颈) universal impermanence (蝉补谤惫腻苍颈迟测补迟腻) and because it considers impermanence it does not produce the fetters (蝉补峁儁辞箩补苍补), thirst (迟峁涐梗峁嚹�), etc. It is like a sheep (别岣峚办补) that is kept near a tiger (惫测腻驳丑谤补): even if it has good grass and good water, it does not get fat. In the same way, even though they experience pure happiness (补苍腻蝉谤补惫补sukha), the saints nevertheless contemplate impermanence (补苍颈迟测补迟腻) and emptiness (艣奴苍测补) and that is why they do not produce the 鈥榝at鈥� of desire (谤腻驳补尘别诲补)鈥�.

[...] Further, as for the purity of morality, [...] open space is unsullied (补苍腻蝉谤补惫补-gagana鈥�补苍腻蝉谤补惫补峁� gagana峁�), and unsullied is also that morality; open space is unconditioned, and unconditioned is also that morality so is the morality; open space is unchanging, and unchanging is also that morality; open space has no thought-constructions, and no thought-constructions is also that morality; [...]鈥�.
2) 础苍腻蝉谤补惫补 (啶呧え啶距じ啷嵿ぐ啶�) refers to 鈥渦ncontaminated (knowledge)鈥�, according to the Gaganaga帽japarip峁沜ch膩.鈥擜ccordingly: 鈥淸...] After that, by those magically conjured-up beings, during seven days, the women were brought to maturity, in the way that they attained the stage of not falling back from the supreme and perfect awakening. Then the five hundred widows, having come to the Bodhisatva Gaganaga帽ja, uttered these verses: 鈥榌...] (120) Since all these dharmas are magically created, they are already empty, without movement or activity. By fully understanding the uncontaminated knowledge (补苍腻蝉谤补惫补-j帽膩na), from this time forth, we will never get into the power of vices鈥� [...]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.
In Jainism
General definition (in Jainism)
: SOAS Research Online: Prek峁Ｄ� meditation: History and MethodsAn腻艣谤补惫补 (啶呧え啶距ざ啷嵿ぐ啶�) refers to 鈥渂eing devoid of karmic influx鈥� and represents one of the 46 qualities of the soul to be meditated on in the 鈥淧ractice of Meditation on Liberated Souls (Siddhas)鈥�, according to Jain texts like 膧c膩r膩峁単a (5.6.123-140), 峁峁璳ha峁囜笉膩gama (13.5.4.31) and Samayas膩ra (1.49).鈥擳he pure soul can be recognised by meditation on its true nature, represented by the liberated souls of the Siddhas. The practice which leads to this realisation is meditation on the fact that attachment, aversion, passions and the influx of karmas, are 鈥榥ot mine鈥�, that I am separate from them and consist of infinite knowledge, perception, conduct, spiritual energy, that I am the pure, enlightened, and everlasting soul. The qualities of the soul to be meditated on as truly mine are: [e.g., My soul is devoid of karmic influx (补苍腻艣谤补惫补)] [...] The meditation on such extended fourty-five qualities of the pure soul presents the 苍颈艣补肠补测补-苍补测补, which is aligned with Kundakunda鈥檚 approach.
Jainism is an Indian religion of Dharma whose doctrine revolves around harmlessness (ahimsa) towards every living being. The two major branches (Digambara and Svetambara) of Jainism stimulate self-control (or, shramana, 鈥榮elf-reliance鈥�) and spiritual development through a path of peace for the soul to progess to the ultimate goal.
