It is a Sanskrit word defined in the Dhanurveda-sa峁僪it膩, which contains a list of no less than 117 weapons. The Dhanurveda-sa峁僪it膩 is said to have been composed by the sage Vasi峁ａ弓ha, who in turn transmitted it trough a tradition of sages, which can eventually be traced to 艢iva and Brahm膩.
Dhanurveda (啶оえ啷佮ぐ啷嵿さ啷囙う) refers to the 鈥渒nowledge of warfare鈥� and, as an upaveda, is associated with the 峁歡veda. It contains instructions on warfare, archery and ancient Indian martial arts, dating back to the 2nd-3rd millennium BCE.

Shaiva (啶多啶�, 艣aiva) or Shaivism (艣aivism) represents a tradition of Hinduism worshiping Shiva as the supreme being. Closely related to Shaktism, Shaiva literature includes a range of scriptures, including Tantras, while the root of this tradition may be traced back to the ancient Vedas.
Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English Translation艢腻蝉迟峁� (啶多ぞ啶膏啶む) refers to the 鈥渞uler鈥� and is used to describe Brahm膩, according to the 艢ivapur膩峁嘺 2.3.16 (鈥淏rahm膩 consoles the gods鈥�).鈥擜ccordingly, as the Gods said to Brahm膩: 鈥淸...] The regions of our three worlds have been forcibly taken, O Brahm膩, by this T膩raka of sinful and ruthless temperament. O lord of the worlds, we were in heaven but now that we have been turned out by that demon we shall go to any place which you may kindly suggest. You are our final resort. You are our ruler [艣腻蝉迟峁�], creator [诲丑腻迟峁�], and protector [迟谤腻迟峁�]. But we are scorched in the fire of the name T膩raka. We are extremely agitated. [...]鈥�.
The Purana (啶啶班ぞ啶�, pur膩峁嘺s) refers to Sanskrit literature preserving ancient India鈥檚 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.
Yoga (school of philosophy)
: Google Books: The Khecarividya of Adinatha艢腻蝉迟峁� (啶多ぞ啶膏啶む) is the name of a village deity from the Tamil region, according to the Matsyendrasa峁僪it膩. [...] Evidence helpful in dating the text is scant, but there are clues as to where some parts of it were composed. [...] There is strong evidence for other parts of the text having been composed in the Tamil region of south India. At 55.3 the frame story mentions a king from the south whose city is called All奴谤补. The city has not been identified, but the suffix -奴谤补 suggests the Tamil region. References to the predominantly south Indian 辫补艣肠颈尘腻尘苍腻测补 stream of 艢aivism are found throughout the text. Southern origins can also be inferred from the injunction at 8.31 to worship the god 艢腻蝉迟峁�, a village deity found only in the Tamil region. Furthermore the yoga taught in the text is often described as 艣腻尘产丑补惫补, a name commonly used in south India to describe 艢aiva yoga.
Yoga is originally considered a branch of Hindu philosophy (astika), but both ancient and modern Yoga combine the physical, mental and spiritual. Yoga teaches various physical techniques also known as 膩sanas (postures), used for various purposes (eg., meditation, contemplation, relaxation).

Gaganaga帽ja said: 鈥業f you conceive the concept of this open space as your teacher (艣腻蝉迟峁�-sa峁僯帽膩), with respect and reverence, son of good family, then you will listen to the treasury of hearing the dharma鈥�.
