In Hinduism
Vedanta (school of philosophy)
Antargalita (अन्तर्गलित) refers to “having shed all desires within” (by those seeking liberation), according to the Aṣṭāvakragītā (5th century BC), an ancient text on spirituality dealing with Advaita-Vedānta topics.—Accordingly, [as Aṣṭavakra says to Janaka]: “Unmoved and undistressed, realising that being, non-being and transformation are of the very nature of things, one easily finds peace. At peace, having shed all desires within (antargalita), and realising that nothing exists here but the Lord, the Creator of all things, one is no longer attached to anything [antargalitasarvāśaḥ śāntaḥ kvāpi na sajjate]. [...]”.
Vedanta (वेदान्त, vedānta) refers to a school of orthodox Hindu philosophy (astika), drawing its subject-matter from the Upanishads. There are a number of sub-schools of Vedanta, however all of them expound on the basic teaching of the ultimate reality (brahman) and liberation (moksha) of the individual soul (atman).
