Ayurveda (science of life)
: Journal of the European Ayurvedic Society, Volume 4: Reviews and Notices³Û´Ç²µ¾±²ÔÄ«³Ù²¹²Ô³Ù°ù²¹ (योगिनीतनà¥à¤¤à¥à¤°) is the name of a work related to Ayurveda and medicine referenced by the â€�cikitsa bidhane tantrasastraâ€â€”a Bengali work authored by ‘Krishna Chaitanya Thakurâ€� in three volumes dealing with the treatments for diseases and disorders collected from Tantric and Ayurvedic texts.—Eastern India is one of the major strongholds of Tantrism in South Asia, and this region, particularly Bengal, has played and still plays a prominent role in the development of Ä€yurveda. It is indeed a fact that much medically relevant material is to be found in [the ³Û´Ç²µ¾±²ÔÄ«³Ù²¹²Ô³Ù°ù²¹, or other] Tantric texts. The â€�cikitsÄ bidhÄne tantraÅ›Ästraâ€� (by Kṛṣṇacaitanya ṬhÄkur) contains wealth of medicines and remedies for a large variety of diseases and disorders, arranged according to the individual diseases or disorders. The material presented is culled from a variety of texts [e.g., ²â´Ç²µ¾±²ÔÄ«³Ù²¹²Ô³Ù°ù²¹], [most of which] seem to be classed as Tantric, but some are quite obviously not so, though their material may be related to that to be found in Tantric texts.

Ä€yurveda (आयà¥à¤°à¥à¤µà¥‡à¤¦, ayurveda) is a branch of Indian science dealing with medicine, herbalism, taxology, anatomy, surgery, alchemy and related topics. Traditional practice of Ä€yurveda in ancient India dates back to at least the first millenium BC. Literature is commonly written in Sanskrit using various poetic metres.
Shaivism (Shaiva philosophy)
: Notices of Sanskrit Manuscripts: Volume 12 (1898) (shai)³Û´Ç²µ¾±²ÔÄ«³Ù²¹²Ô³Ù°ù²¹ (योगिनीतनà¥à¤¤à¥à¤°) refers to one of the Tantras mentioned in the ²Ñ²¹³óÄå³¾´Ç°ìá¹£a-°Õ²¹²Ô³Ù°ù²¹, a Sanskrit manuscript collected in volume 12 of the catalogue “Notices of Sanskrit Manuscripts (second series)â€� by Mahamahopadhyaya Haraprasad Shastri.—The MahÄmoká¹£atantra manuscript, consisting of 3,024 Å›lokas (metrical verses), is deposit: Dhaka, Vikramapura Majhapada, Babu Rasavihari Raya. It deals with the salvation, cosmogony (i.e., the order of cosmic regions) and contains a bibliography of Tantric literature.—The catalogue includes the term—YoginÄ«-tantra in its ‘subject-matter listâ€� or Viá¹£aya (which lists topics, chapters and technical terms).

Shaiva (शै�, śaiva) or Shaivism (śaivism) 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.

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.
