Visrabdha (विस्रब्ध) refers to “fearless” (large wild animals), according to the Rāmāyaṇa chapter 2.28. Accordingly:—“[...] soothening with kind words to Sītā, when eyes were blemished with tears, the virtuous Rāma spoke again as follows, for the purpose of waking her turn back: ‘[...] Large wild animals (mahāmṛga) which are fearless (visrabdha) and intoxicated sporting in the desolate forest; come forward, after seeing. Oh, Sītā! That is why living in forest is uncomfortable’”.

Viśrabdha (विश्रब्ध) refers to “trustful”, and is mentioned in verse 2.26 of the Aṣṭāṅgahṛdayasaṃhitā (Sūtrasthāna) by Vāgbhaṭa.—Accordingly, “(One shall be) smiling (all) over the face, greeting first, amiable in conduct, and soft with pity; one shall not be happy alone, nor (shall one be) trustful [viśrabdha] and afraid of everybody”.

Note: Viśrabdha (“trustful”) has been reproduced by yid brtan, which properly signifies “firm as to one’s mind”. The corresponding noun is, however, frequently employed in the sense of “confidence” or “reliance” (Das, Dict. p. 1135).—For yid N has a miscarved yin; for źin NP write, less correctly, ciṅ.
