Source: Cologne Digital Sanskrit Dictionaries: Indian Epigraphical GlossaryAṣṭabhoga-tejaḥsvāmya.—(IA 8), unbridled ownership endowed with all the rights associated with the enjoyment of property; translated as ‘with the eight rights of full possession’ though aṣṭa probably means ‘all’ and not merely ‘eight’ (cf. aṣṭādaśa, etc.); cf. aṣṭabhoga-tejaḥsvāmyaṃ ca krayeṇ = ādāya (EI 23), ‘having secured the aṣṭabhoga-tejaḥsvāmya rights by pur- chase’; (IA 19), translated as ‘the proprietorship of all the glory of the aṣṭa-bhoga’, and aṣṭa-bhoga explained as ‘the deposits of buried treasure (nidhi-nikṣepa), water, stones, the akṣīṇī, that which may accrue, that which has been made property, that which may be made property, and augmen- tation’. But there is probably no justification for taking nidhi-nikṣepa as a single unit. Cf. aṣṭabhoga-tejassvāmya-daṇḍaśulka-yukta (Ind. Ant., Vol. XIX, p. 247, text line 102), mentioned along with nidhi- nikṣepa-pāṣāṇa-arām-ādi-catuṣ-prakāra-bīravaṇa-pārikha-aya-sahita. The separate mention of these two groups shows that aṣṭa-bhoga vaguely indicated all kinds of proprietary rights. Note: aṣṭabhoga-tejaḥsvāmya is defined in the “Indian epigraphical glossary” as it can be found on ancient inscriptions commonly written in Sanskrit, Prakrit or Dravidian languages.
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.
