In Buddhism
Mahayana (major branch of Buddhism)
Source: academia.edu: A Study and Translation of the GaganagañjaparipṛcchāAcchedya (अच्छेद्य) refers to the “uncuttable (characteristic of open space)”, according to the Gaganagañjaparipṛcchā: the eighth chapter of the Mahāsaṃnipāta (a collection of Mahāyāna Buddhist Sūtras).—Accordingly, “Son of good family, the morality of the Boddhisatvas becomes purified by these eight qualities. [...] Further, as for the purity of morality, [...] open space is all-pervasive, so is the morality; open space is uncuttable and unbreakable (acchedya—acchedyābhedyaṃ gaganam), so is the morality; open space is united in the sameness, so is the morality; open space is essentially beyond impurity, so is the morality. Son of good family, the morality in which the Bodhisattvas are established becomes like open space in such a way. [...]”.
Mahayana (महायान, mahāyāna) 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 sūtras of which some of the earliest are the various Prajñāpāramitā sūtras.
