In Hinduism
Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English TranslationBhāsita (भासित) refers to “having said”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.3.24 (“Śiva consents to marry Pārvatī”).—Accordingly, as Viṣṇu said to Śiva: “O Śiva, all the gods have come here to submit to you their misery perpetrated mysteriously by Tāraka. O Śiva, the demon Tāraka will be killed only by your self-begotten son and not otherwise. Ponder over what I have said [i.e., bhāsita] and take pity on me. Obeisance, O great lord, to you. O lord, redeem the gods from the misery brought about by Tāraka. Hence, O lord Śiva, Pārvatī shall be accepted by you and grasped with your right hand. Accept her hand as offered in marriage by the lord of mountains. She is full of noble attributes”.
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.

Mahayana (major branch of Buddhism)
Source: Wisdom Library: Maha Prajnaparamita SastraBhāṣita (भाषित) refers to “that which has been said”, according to Mahāprajñāpāramitāśāstra (chapter 3).—Accordingly, “[...] Skillful words (nipuṇa), well spoken (su-bāṣita) come forth everywhere in the buddhadharma. Thus the Buddha said in the Vinaya: “What is the buddhadharma? The buddhadharma is that which has been spoken by five kinds of people: 1. that which the Buddha himself has spoken (buddha-bhāṣita); 2. that which the disciples of the Buddha have spoken (śrāvaka-bhāṣita); 3. that which the sages have said (ṛṣi-bhāṣita); 4. that which has been said by the gods (deva-bhāṣita); 5. that which apparitional beings have spoken (upapāduka-bhāṣita)’.”.
