Purana and Itihasa (epic history)

Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English Translation

1) Bhajana (भजन) refers to “worshipping” (Śiva), according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.3.28 (“Description of the fraudulent words of the Brahmacārin”).—Accordingly, as Pārvatī said to Śiva (in guise of a Brahmacārin): “[...]  With the threefold Energies, Śiva blesses those who worship Him always as the lord of Energies. Every individual soul becomes fearless and conquers death by worshipping (bhajana) Him. Hence His designation ‘the conqueror of death’ is famous in all the three worlds. Viṣṇu attains and retains his Viṣṇu-hood by His favour. Similarly Brahmā his Brahma-hood and the gods their godhood. [...]”.

2) Bhājana (भाजन) refers to a “meal” (i.e., taking food), according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.3.52 (“The bridegroom’s party is fed and Śiva retires to bed”).—Accordingly, as Brahmā narrated to Nārada: “[...] Then the mountain invited all the gods and others along with the lord for taking food, through his sons and others. [...] The sages and Brahmins, Bhṛgu and other sages sat in separate rows and took their food with pleasure. The Gaṇas of Caṇḍī took their meals (kṛta-bhājana) and then cracked jokes and talked merrily. [...]”.

Vaishnavism (Vaishava dharma)

Source: Pure Bhakti: Bhagavad-gita (4th edition)

Bhajana (भजन) refers to “(1) Service (2) Spiritual practice, especially hearing, chanting, remembering and meditating on the holy name, form, qualities and pastimes of Śrī Kṛṣṇa”. (cf. Glossary page from Śrīmad-Bhagavad-Gītā).

Source: Pure Bhakti: Bhajana-rahasya - 2nd Edition

Bhajana (भजन) refers to:—(1) activities performed with the consciousness of being a servant of Śrī Kṛṣṇa, (2) in a general sense bhajana refers to the performance of spiritual practices, especially hearing, chanting and meditating upon Śrī Kṛṣṇa’s name, form, qualities and pastimes. (cf. Glossary page from Bhajana-Rahasya).

Source: Pure Bhakti: Arcana-dipika - 3rd Edition

Bhajana (भजन) refers to “internal devotional service”, according to the Arcana-dīpikā (manual on deity worship).—[...] By advancing in the process of arcana, a person enters the realm of bhajana (internal devotional service). [...]—Bhajana includes: Service, or worship; performance of the nine limbs of devotion to the Supreme lord: hearing, chanting, remembering, serving the lotus feet, worshipping, offering prayers, becoming a servant, making friendship and surrendering everything.

There is a basic difference between arcana and bhajana. Arcana is executed on the path of rules and regulations, and bhajana by taking shelter of the holy name. Although bhajana may externally appear to transgress the path of rules and regulations, it is a complete process of exclusive devotional service to Śrī Bhagavān.

Mahayana (major branch of Buddhism)

Source: Wisdom Library: Maha Prajnaparamita Sastra

1) Bhājana (भाजन) refers to a “jar”, according to Mahāprajñāpāramitāśāstra (chapter 21).—Accordingly, “If the immoral man takes the monastic robes, these are like burning brass for him, like an iron ring around his body; his alms bowl (pātra) is like a jar (bhājana) filled with melted copper; when he takes his food, it is as if he were swallowing balls of burning iron or drinking boiling brass; the people paying homage to him with their offerings are like the guardians of hell watching over him; when he enters the monastery, it is as though he were entering the great hell; when he sits on the monastic benches, it is as if he were taking his place on a bed of burning iron”.

2) Bhājana (भाजन) refers to “special utensils”, according to Mahāprajñāpāramitāśāstra (chapter 41).—Accordingly, “[Digression on a case brought against the Buddha; B. The defense].—[6. Use of a Stone Bowl].—‘The Buddha forbade the Bhikṣus to use eight kinds of bowls (pātra)’.—[...] Furthermore, the Buddha does not allow the use of stone bowls because fine ones are hard to find and because thick ones retain grease. The Buddha’s bowl arose spontaneously on the four summits of the mountains on which the four kings of the gods dwell. But other people do not have these bowls that arise by themselves; to try to make one would be very difficult and very complicated. This is why the Buddha did not allow [the Bhikṣus] to have stone bowls but used one himself to distinguish himself from his disciples, in the same way that the king venerated by people uses special utensils (bhājana) himself. Seeing the Buddha use a special bowl, people’s veneration and respect is increased and they develop pure faith. [...]”.
