In Hinduism
Shaktism (Shakta philosophy)
: Google Books: Manthanabhairavatantram1) ³§²¹á¹ƒd´Ç³ó²¹ (संदोà¤�) refers to “meeting groundsâ€�, according to the ÅšrÄ«matottara-tantra, an expansion of the KubjikÄmatatantra: the earliest popular and most authoritative Tantra of the KubjikÄ cult.—Accordingly, as Bhairava says to the Goddess:—“First generate in the land of BhÄrata the astonishing emanation of (your) mind, namely, (every kind of) sacred seat (i.e., ±èīṻ·²¹), primary and secondary, (every kind of) meeting ground (²õ²¹á¹ƒd´Ç³ó²¹), (every) primary and secondary sacred field, the confluence of rivers, the cremation ground(s), crossroad(s) and forest(s), lake(s), valley(s), and cave(s). (Create) many (such) places (where) Siddhas (practice) (²õ¾±»å»å³ó²¹²õ³Ù³óÄå²Ô²¹), the many kinds of sacred bathing places (³ÙÄ«°ù³Ù³ó²¹) and the rest [...]â€�
The first ²õ²¹á¹ƒd´Ç³ó²¹ of the YoginÄ«s was emanated near to ÅšrÄ«giri and the second near the town of UjjayinÄ«. The others are TrikÅ«á¹a, Tripura, Gopura, Bhadrakarṇa ([Manuscript] Kh: Bhadrakaá¹£á¹a; [Manuscript] G: BhadrakÄ«rṇa), KirÄta, the region of KaÅ›mÄ«ra, Sauvala (kh: Sauvara, g: ÅšaivÄla) and SindhudeÅ›a.â€�(cf. ÅšrÄ«matottara verse 3.135-138).
Note: The terms ²õ²¹á¹ƒd´Ç³ó²¹ and upa²õ²¹á¹ƒd´Ç³ó²¹ are of uncertain derivation. They are also terms in common usage in the Buddhist Tantras in this or a similar form (such as chandoha). See Hevajratantra verse 1.7.10-18. Jayaratha derives the term from the root ²õ²¹á¹ƒd³Ü³ó, meaning to milk, suck, or ooze (milk). Thus he says that: a ²õ²¹á¹ƒd´Ç³ó²¹ka (is what has been milked) because it consists mainly of the exuded secretion of the secondary seats.
2) ³§²¹á¹ƒd´Ç³ó²¹ (संदोà¤�) refers to “essenceâ€�, according to the JayadrathayÄmala verse 1.12.456-459.—Accordingly, “By reflecting on ultimate reality, (the energy of the goddess) wanders throughout the whole universe, including the gods, demons and men as the division of pervasion and the pervader. Through the Yoga (lit. ‘unionâ€�), by means of which (this energy) is checked (and so appropriated); and by the unfolding of its essential nature, the yogi becomes of that nature, endowed with the very essence [i.e., ²õ²¹á¹ƒd´Ç³ó²¹] of accomplishment. By attaining oneness in this way, Yoga—Āṇava, ÅšÄkta and ÅšÄmbhava—has been explained, which illumines the meaning of the teacher’s (instruction)â€�.

Shakta (शाकà¥à¤�, Å›Äkta) or Shaktism (Å›Äktism) represents a tradition of Hinduism where the Goddess (Devi) is revered and worshipped. Shakta literature includes a range of scriptures, including various Agamas and Tantras, although its roots may be traced back to the Vedas.
In Buddhism
Tibetan Buddhism (Vajrayana or tantric Buddhism)
: OSU Press: Cakrasamvara Samadhi³§²¹á¹ƒd´Ç³ó²¹ (संदोà¤�) refers to “abundantâ€� (omniscient knowledge), according to the Guru Mandala Worship (³¾²¹á¹‡á¸²¹±ôÄå°ù³¦²¹²Ô²¹) ritual often performed in combination with the Cakrasaṃvara SamÄdhi, which refers to the primary ±èÅ«ÂáÄå and ²õÄå»å³ó²¹²ÔÄå practice of Newah MahÄyÄna-VajrayÄna Buddhists in Nepal.—Accordingly, â€�°¿á¹� abundant omniscient knowledge (sarvajñajñÄna-²õ²¹á¹ƒd´Ç³ó²¹), gladdening for the world's sake, Come forth like a wish fulfilling gem, ÅšrÄ« Saṃvara, I give homageâ€�.

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’s words, and the Tengyur, which includes commentaries from various sources. Esotericism and tantra techniques (±¹²¹Âá°ù²¹²âÄå²Ô²¹) are collected indepently.
India history and geography
: Cologne Digital Sanskrit Dictionaries: Indian Epigraphical GlossarySandoha.—cf. a-puṣpa-kṣīra-sandoha (IE 8-5), realisation or levy (cf. a-puṣpa-kṣīra-grahaṇīya). Note: sandoha is defined in the “Indian epigraphical glossary� as it can be found on ancient inscriptions commonly written in Sanskrit, Prakrit or Dravidian languages.

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.

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.
