In Hinduism

Purana and Itihasa (epic history)

Source: archive.org: Puranic Encyclopedia

Baudhāyana (बौधायन).—A teacher-priest who acted according to Kalpa Sūtras (rituals of sacrifices).

context information

The Purana (पुराण, purāṇas) refers to Sanskrit literature preserving ancient India’s vast cultural history, including historical legends, religious ceremonies, various arts and sciences. The eighteen mahapuranas total over 400,000 shlokas (metrical couplets) and date to at least several centuries BCE.

Pancaratra (worship of Nārāyaṇa)

Source: Wisdom Library: Pancaratra (Samhita list)

Baudhāyana (बौधायन) or Baudhāyanasaṃhitā is the name of an ancient Pāñcarātra Saṃhitā mentioned in the Hayaśīrṣasaṃhitā: a large Pāñcarātra Āgama consisting of roughly 6500 verses dealing primarily with architecture, temple-building and consecration rituals and iconography.—The passage listing these titles concludes by saying that originally there were only these twenty-five. Later on, however, saṃhitā-works multiplied in numbers. But all of them are to be understood to be derived from the ones named above.

context information

Pancaratra (पाञ्चरात्र, pāñcarātra) represents a tradition of Hinduism where Narayana is revered and worshipped. Closeley related to Vaishnavism, the Pancaratra literature includes various Agamas and tantras incorporating many Vaishnava philosophies.

Baudhayana in German

context information

Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
