In Hinduism
Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English Translationṃyٲ (संयत) refers to “perfect control� (over one’s sense-organs), according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.3.13 (“Śiva-Pārvatī dialogue�).—Accordingly, after Śiva permitted Pārvatī to stay by his side: “[...] On seeing her with perfect control over her sense-organs [i.e., ṃyٲ-Ի] and engrossed in serving Him always, the lord mercifully thought. ‘I shall take her only when the last seed of ego goes away from her; when she herself performs a penance�. Thinking thus, the lord of the Bhūtas reverted to meditation. The lord who could indulge in great sports became a great Yogin. [...]�.

The Purana (पुरा�, purāṇas) refers to Sanskrit literature preserving ancient India’s vast cultural history, including historical legends, religious ceremonies, various arts and sciences. The eighteen mahapuranas total over 400,000 shlokas (metrical couplets) and date to at least several centuries BCE.
In Jainism
General definition (in Jainism)
: The University of Sydney: A study of the Twelve Reflectionsṃyٲ (संयत) refers to “control (of one’s self)�, according to the 11th century Jñānārṇava, a treatise on Jain Yoga in roughly 2200 Sanskrit verses composed by Śubhacandra.—Accordingly, “That which is evidently cessation of action causing the cycle of rebirth is to be considered as the mental stopping of the influx of karma by those who know about that from the most excellent scripture. Like the hero who is well-clad in armour is not pierced by arrows in the difficulty of battle, the one who has subdued his senses, whose self is restrained (ṃvṛtٳ; var.�ṃyٲ-ٳ—‘whose self is controlled�), is not pierced by arrows which are made of non-restraint�.
Synonyms: Saṃvṛta.

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, ‘self-reliance�) and spiritual development through a path of peace for the soul to progess to the ultimate goal.
