In Buddhism
Mahayana (major branch of Buddhism)
Source: Wisdom Library: Maha Prajnaparamita Sastra1) Auddhatya (औद्धत्य, “agitation”) refers to one of ten types of manifestly active defilements (paryavasthāna) according to Mahāprajñāpāramitāśāstra chapter 13.—The Bodhisattvas (accompanying the Buddha at Rājagṛha on the Gṛdhrakūṭaparvata) excelled in destroying various these ten manifestly active defilements (e.g., Auddhatya).
2) Auddhatya (औद्धत्य, “excitement”) according to the 2nd century Mahāprajñāpāramitāśāstra (chapter XXVIII). Accordingly, “the obstacle of excitement (auddhatya) and regret (kaukṛtya).—Excitement is a dharma that harms the mind of the monastic (pravrajyā-citta): if a person with concentrated mind (saṃgṛhita-citta) cannot remain faithful, then what can be said of a person with a scattered mind (vikṣipta-citta)? The excited person is as uncontrollable as a mad elephant (gandhagaja) without a hook or a camel (uṣṭra) with pierced nose”.
Source: academia.edu: A Study and Translation of the GaganagañjaparipṛcchāAuddhatya (औद्धत्य) refers to “desirous excitement”, according to the Gaganagañjaparipṛcchā: the eighth chapter of the Mahāsaṃnipāta (a collection of Mahāyāna Buddhist Sūtras).—Accordingly, as Gaganagañja said to Ratnapāṇi: “Son of good family, those sixty-four dharmas are included in one hundred twenty-eight dharmas. What are those one hundred twenty-four? [...] (37) the mind without modification is included in the thought which is the same as earth and giving up aversion and attachment; (38) the absence of mental agitation is included in giving up desirous excitement and regret (auddhatya-kaukṛtya) and investigating impermanently; (39) being the same as a mountain is included in being neither conceited nor depressed; (40) the undisturbed is included in never forgetting any promise and perseverance to keep vows; [...]’”.
