In Buddhism
Mahayana (major branch of Buddhism)
: academia.edu: A Study and Translation of the Gaganaga帽japarip峁沜ch膩Aviruddha (啶呧さ啶苦ぐ啷佮う啷嵿ぇ) refers to 鈥�(one who is) unobstructed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, 鈥淸...] If he is in the state of concentration, but ends up inan unpleasant situation, he is not irritated. Even thought he always manifests peacefulness to noble beings, he makes flaming efforts in order to bring ordinary people to maturity. Being in the state of sameness in concentration, he still teaches those with irregular behaviour by means of various kinds of teachings. He does not see the irregular in terms of sameness, and he does not obstruct the irregular with sameness. Since he is unobstructed (aviruddha), he is called the meditator whose thought is just like open space, without any obstruction, he is called a meditator with great insight, and he is called the meditator who is not dependent on consciousness. When meditation is understood in this way, then the meditation of the Bodhisattva is like the expanse of open space, which is not dependent on anything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.
Tibetan Buddhism (Vajrayana or tantric Buddhism)
: Brill: 艢aivism and the Tantric Traditions (tantric Buddhism)Aviruddha (啶呧さ啶苦ぐ啷佮う啷嵿ぇ) refers to 鈥渨ithout obstacle鈥�, according to Kuladatta鈥檚 Kriy膩sa峁僩rahapa帽jik膩, a text within Tantric Buddhism representing a construction manual for monasteries.鈥擜ccordingly, [办补濒补艣腻诲丑颈惫腻蝉补苍腻, chapter 3]鈥斺�淚f an 膧c膩rya does not have a strong conviction in the Vajradh膩tu, there is no obstacle (aviruddha) to his doing all the rites from purification of the site to consecration [of images etc.] with a strong conviction in his own chosen deity鈥�.
Tibetan Buddhism includes schools such as Nyingma, Kadampa, Kagyu and Gelug. Their primary canon of literature is divided in two broad categories: The Kangyur, which consists of Buddha鈥檚 words, and the Tengyur, which includes commentaries from various sources.

In Jainism
General definition (in Jainism)
: SOAS Research Online: Prek峁Ｄ� meditation: History and MethodsAviruddha (啶呧さ啶苦ぐ啷佮う啷嵿ぇ) or 鈥渇ree鈥� refers to 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 free (aviruddha)] [...] 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.
