Source: Shodhganga: Drumavichitrikarnam—Plant mutagenesis in ancient IndiaJhaṭiti (झटिति) refers to the “instant production (of flowers fruits)”, which was accomplished using certain bio-organical recipes for plant mutagenesis, according to the Vṛkṣāyurveda by Sūrapāla (1000 CE): an encyclopedic work dealing with the study of trees and the principles of ancient Indian agriculture.—Accordingly, “If a seed is cultured in the oil of Alangium salviifolium, fish, Gangetic porpoise, human being, hog and crocodile and then dried up, sown in a good soil and nourished by coconut water (gale water?) the tree thereof produced flowers and fruits at once (jhaṭiti)”.

Traditional practice of Āyurveda in ancient India dates back to at least the first millenium BC. Literature is commonly written in Sanskrit using various poetic metres.
Vedanta (school of philosophy)

[viśanti jhaṭiti kroḍaṃ nirodhaikāgryasiddhaye] Seeing the desireless lion the elephants of the senses silently run away, or, if they cannot, serve him like courtiers. [...]”.
Vedanta (वेदान्त, vedānta) refers to a school of orthodox Hindu philosophy (astika), drawing its subject-matter from the Upanishads. There are a number of sub-schools of Vedanta, however all of them expound on the basic teaching of the ultimate reality (brahman) and liberation (moksha) of the individual soul (atman).
In Buddhism
Tibetan Buddhism (Vajrayana or tantric Buddhism)
Source: OSU Press: Cakrasamvara SamadhiJhaṭiti (झटिति) refers to “instant (transformation)”, according to the Kalaśa Pūjā [i.e., Kalasha Worship] ritual often performed in combination with the Cakrasaṃvara Samādhi, which refers to the primary pūjā and sādhanā practice of Newah Mahāyāna-Vajrayāna Buddhists in Nepal.—Accordingly, “Instantly (jhaṭiti) the letter Vaṃ transforms, into a Kalaśa made of various jewels, Observe the shape produced, the white residing inside the Dharmodayā”.
Source: MDPI Books: The Ocean of HeroesJhaṭiti (झटिति) refers to the “transformation”, according to the 10th-century Ḍākārṇava-tantra: one of the last Tibetan Tantric scriptures belonging to the Buddhist Saṃvara tradition consisting of 51 chapters.—Accordingly, “[...] Then, entreated with the song, Heruka has been aroused spontaneously. ‘oṃ,āh, the body, speech, and mind adamantine hūṃphaṭ hoh’—with recitation of this mantra, [the practitioner] performs the instantaneous transformation (jhaṭiti): the hero of all (Heruka), with [his consort] Yoginī (Vajravārāhī), by nature, instantly emerge by means of the mantra. [...]”.
Tibetan Buddhism includes schools such as Nyingma, Kadampa, Kagyu and Gelug. Their primary canon of literature is divided in two broad categories: The Kangyur, which consists of Buddha’s words, and the Tengyur, which includes commentaries from various sources. Esotericism and tantra techniques (vajrayāna) are collected indepently.
