In Hinduism
Shaivism (Shaiva philosophy)
Parivarjana (परिवर्जन) refers to “having given up (one’s vessel—Pātra)”, according to the Pātravidhi—a manual of the Lakulīśa Pāśupata school of Śaivism dealing with purification of the initiate’s vessel (pātra) and other concerned issues.—Accordingly, “Whoever, after having renounced, swerves even once [from his state], he is banished, and certainly becomes untouchable, because of giving up (parivarjana) the vessel. When he does not give up the vessel [though he has fallen from the state], then he becomes [even] unfit for conversation. He will go to hell by the use of the vessel so far. (11–12)”.
Shaiva (शैव, śaiva) or Shaivism (śaivism) represents a tradition of Hinduism worshiping Shiva as the supreme being. Closely related to Shaktism, Shaiva literature includes a range of scriptures, including Tantras, while the root of this tradition may be traced back to the ancient Vedas.
In Buddhism
Mahayana (major branch of Buddhism)
Parivarjana (परिवर्जन) refers to “rejection”, according to the 2nd century Mahāprajñāpāramitāśāstra chapter XLII.—Accordingly, “[...] furthermore, great wisdom has as its nature the relinquishment (parityāga), the rejection (parivarjana) of dharmas; great loving-kindness and great compassion have as their nature pity for (anukampā) and service (upakāra) to beings. This pity and service are loved by all beings; that is why they call them great loving-kindness and great compassion of the Buddha”.
Parivarjana (परिवर्जन) refers to “avoiding (bad friends)”, according to the Gaganagañjaparipṛcchā: the eighth chapter of the Mahāsaṃnipāta (a collection of Mahāyāna Buddhist Sūtras).—Accordingly, “How, son of good family, does the Bodhisattva obtain the mastery (vaśitāprāpta) in the arising of birth and death? When the Bodhisattva is endowed with twelve dharmas, son of good family, he attains the mastery in the arising of birth and death. What are the twelve? To wit, (1) he avoids bad friends (pāpamitra-parivarjana) and serves spiritual friends; (2) he completely purifies erroneous view-points; (3) he purifies the mass of moral discipline which is authorized by the Buddha; (4) he knows the entrance into concentration; [...]”.
Mahayana (महायान, mahāyāna) is a major branch of Buddhism focusing on the path of a Bodhisattva (spiritual aspirants/ enlightened beings). Extant literature is vast and primarely composed in the Sanskrit language. There are many sūtras of which some of the earliest are the various Prajñāpāramitā sūtras.
