In Hinduism

Purana and Itihasa (epic history)

Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English Translation

Sāmagrī (सामग्री) refers to “appendages”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.3.27 (“Description of the fraudulent words of the Brahmacārin”).—Accordingly, as Śiva (in guise of a Brahmacārin) said to Pārvatī: “[...] Where the inauspicious sound of double drum and where the sound of his throat? There is no matching beauty between you both. If He had money to spare how could He have been a naked being? His vehicle is a bull. He has no other appendages [i.e., sāmagrī]. There is not even a single quality in the odd-eyed Śiva out of the innumberable qualities pleasing to women and expected in bride-grooms. [...]”.

Mahayana (major branch of Buddhism)

Source: Wisdom Library: Maha Prajnaparamita Sastra

Sāmagrī (सामग्री) refers to a “complex ([assemblage?])” (of causes and conditions), according to Mahāprajñāpāramitāśāstra (chapter 41).—Accordingly, “[The Non-existence of Time According to the Mahāyāna].—[...] Furthermore, the Buddha has two kinds of paths (pratipad): (1). The path of merit (puṇyapratipad), if a person, hearing about the ten powers of the Buddha, his four fearlessnesses, his four unhindered knowledges and his eighteen special attributes, produces minds of veneration and faith. (2). The path of wisdom (prajñāpratipad), if a person hearing that dharmas coming from the complex of causes and conditions (hetupratyaya-sāmagrī-utpanna) are without self-nature, abandons all these dharmas, but does not become attached in mind to emptiness. [...]”.

In Jainism

General definition (in Jainism)

Source: The University of Sydney: A study of the Twelve Reflections

Sāmagrī (सामग्री) refers to the “entirety” (of life-span of the self), according to the 11th century Jñānārṇava, a treatise on Jain Yoga in roughly 2200 Sanskrit verses composed by Śubhacandra.—Accordingly, “[com.—Next he says that the acquisition in its entirety of life-span, etc. (āyuṣkādisāmagrīprāptiḥ) of the self (jīvasya) here is an unexpected cause (atarkitahetuḥ)]—Also when there is duration of life, completeness of all the senses (sarvākṣa-sāmagrī), a good mind [and] tranquillity of mind for embodied souls in the human state, that is unexpected. Then if the mind is devoid of any sense object [and] influenced by restraint and tranquillity by means of virtue still there is no ascertainment of reality”.

context information

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.
