In Hinduism
Kavya (poetry)
Dhāṭī (धाटी) in Sanskrit (or Dhāḍī in Prakrit) refers to an “assault”, as is mentioned in the Vividhatīrthakalpa by Jinaprabhasūri (13th century A.D.): an ancient text devoted to various Jaina holy places (tīrthas).—(CDIAL 6772; Jacobi 1886 p. 118; Williams 1959 p. 363; ST p. 23, 70, 151; JOIB XXXIV p. 64).
Kavya (काव्य, kavya) refers to Sanskrit poetry, a popular ancient Indian tradition of literature. There have been many Sanskrit poets over the ages, hailing from ancient India and beyond. This topic includes mahakavya, or ‘epic poetry’ and natya, or ‘dramatic poetry’.
India history and geography
Dhāṭī.—(LP), campaign; cf. para-rāṣtṛ-opari datta-dhāṭyām, ‘in the course of an expedition led against a foreign country’. Note: dhāṭī 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.
