Vyakarana (Sanskrit grammar)
Source: Wikisource: A dictionary of Sanskrit grammarGopīnātha (गोपीनाथ).—A Bengali scholar of Katansutra Grammar who is believed to have written Katantraparisistapraddyota.
Vyakarana (व्याकरण, vyākaraṇa) refers to Sanskrit grammar and represents one of the six additional sciences (vedanga) to be studied along with the Vedas. Vyakarana concerns itself with the rules of Sanskrit grammar and linguistic analysis in order to establish the correct context of words and sentences.
Chandas (prosody, study of Sanskrit metres)
Source: Shodhganga: a concise history of Sanskrit Chanda literatureGopīnātha (गोपीनाथ) or Gopīnātha Pātra (C. 1704-1780 C.E.), author of Kavicintamaṇi was the son of Vāsudeva and father of Cakrapāṇi and Dāmodara. He received the patronage of Gajapati king Jagannātha Nārāyaṇadeva of the erstwhile princely kingdom of Pāralākhimuṇḍi (now Paralakhemundi). Gopīnātha Pātra was born in Kāyastha family (Karaṇa caste, a caste meant to maintain accounts of the kings and Zamindars). He received the title Kavibhūṣaṇa.
Chandas (छन्दस्) refers to Sanskrit prosody and represents one of the six Vedangas (auxiliary disciplines belonging to the study of the Vedas). The science of prosody (chandas-shastra) focusses on the study of the poetic meters such as the commonly known twenty-six metres mentioned by Pingalas.
Vaishnavism (Vaishava dharma)
Source: Pure Bhakti: Brhad BhagavatamrtamGopīnātha (गोपीनाथ) refers to:—A name of Śrī Kṛṣṇa; the Lord of the gopīs; one of whom the gopīs are the lords. (cf. Glossary page from Śrī Bṛhad-bhāgavatāmṛta).
Vaishnava (वैष्णव, vaiṣṇava) or vaishnavism (vaiṣṇavism) represents a tradition of Hinduism worshipping Vishnu as the supreme Lord. Similar to the Shaktism and Shaivism traditions, Vaishnavism also developed as an individual movement, famous for its exposition of the dashavatara (‘ten avatars of Vishnu’).
India history and geography
Source: Wisdom Library: Teachers, Saints and SagesGopinatha refers to one of the “nine saints” (Navnath), according to Jogendra Nath Bhattacharya in his Hindu Castes and Sects and G. W. Briggs in his Gorakhnath and the Kanphata Yogis.—These nine teachers form the basis of the Navnath Sampradaya (the lineage of the nine Gurus). They are worshipped collectively as well as individually. [...] The nine teachers [e.g., Gopinatha] are considered representative of great teachers in this tradition or Parampara tradition—a succession of Teachers (Gurus) and Disciples (Shishyasa) in Indian-origin religions such as Hinduism, Jainism, Sikhism and Buddhism.
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.

[Sanskrit to German]
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.
