The plant Priyaṅgu is part of the Śūkadhānyavarga group of medicinal plants, referring to the “group of awned grains”. Caraka defined such groups (vargas) based on the dietic value of the plant. Priyaṅgu is similar to Śyāmāka in properties, which it is said to be astringent-sweet and light in character. It also aggravates vāta and alleviates kapha and pitta. It is cold, constipating and absorbent.

The synonym was identified in the Rājanighaṇṭu (verse 16.121), which is a 13th century medicinal thesaurus.

General definition (in Hinduism)
Source: Sanskrit Literature: The Priyangu CreeperThe Priyaṅgu is one of literature’s favourite creepers and is often associated with women, as several of its names – mahilā, aṅganā and kāntā, all of which refer to a lady – suggest. Although associated with śiśira, the Priyaṅgu appears too in vasanta and hemanta in the Ṛtusaṃhāra, so possibly straddles those seasons. Like the proverbial whiteness of the kunda, the Priyaṅgu flower is, according to Rājaśekhara, known for being yellow (pīta). The Priyaṅgu also appears as a type of honey, as in book 4 of the Rāmāyaṇa. One variant of the plant was known for its scent as another of its names, gandhaphalī (‘the fragrant fruited one’), attests.
The Priyaṅgu is often referred to as the śyāma or the phalinī in Sanskrit. The Amarakośa lists a total of 14 synonyms which gives a sense of how popular it was – most plants get three or four. In addition to the names above, these are: Mahilā, Latā, Govindinī, Gundrā, Phalī, Viśvaksenā, Gandhaphalī, Kārambhā and Priyaka. It can also be called Kāntā or Aṅganā. Its botanical name is, according to the Pandanus Indian Plants Database, callicarpa macrophylla. However, Monier Williams gives several alternative identifications – none of which associate the Priyaṅgu with callicarpa macrophylla – panicum italium or panic seed; aglaia odorata and sinapis ramosa or Indian mustard.

General definition (in Jainism)
Source: Wisdom Library: Jainism1) Priyaṅgu (प्रियङ्गु) is the name of the caitya-tree (identified with Panicum italicum) under which the parents of Sumati are often depicted in Jaina iconography, according to both the Śvetāmbara and Digambara tradition. The term caitya refers to “sacred shrine”, an important place of pelgrimage and meditation in Jainism. Sculptures with such caitya-trees generally shows a male and a female couple seated under a tree with the female having a child on her lap. Usually there is a seated Jina figure on top of the tree.
Sumati is the fifth of twenty-four tīrthaṅkaras: enlightened beings who, having conquered saṃsāra (cycle of birth and death), leave a path behind for others to follow. His father is Megha according to Śvetāmbara but Meghaprabha according to Digambara and his mother is Maṅgalā, according to the Ācāradinakara (14th century work on Jain conduct written by Vardhamāna Sūri).
2) Priyaṅgu (प्रियङ्गु) refers to the caityavṛkṣa (sacred-tree) associated with the Vidyut or Vidyutkumāra class of the bhavanavāsin species of Devas (gods), according to Jain cosmology. They are defined according to the cosmological texts, such as the Saṃgrahaṇīratna in the Śvetāmbara tradition, or the Trilokasāra in the Digambara tradition.
Source: archive.org: Economic Life In Ancient India (as depicted in Jain canonical literature)Priyaṅgu (प्रियङ्गु) refers to a kind of tree (vṛkṣa) commonly found in the forests (vaṇa) of ancient India, mentioned in the 1st century Uvavāiya-sutta (sanksrit: Aupapātika-sūtra). Forests have been a significant part of the Indian economy since ancient days. They have been considered essential for economic development in as much as, besides bestowing many geographical advantages, they provide basic materials for building, furniture and various industries. The most important forest products are wood and timber which have been used by the mankind to fulfil his various needs—domestic, agricultural and industrial.
Different kinds of trees (e.g., the Priyaṅgu tree) provided firewood and timber. The latter was used for furniture, building materials, enclosures, staircases, pillars, agricultural purposes, e. g. for making ploughs, transportation e. g. for making carts, chariots, boats, ships, and for various industrial needs. Vaṇa-kamma was an occupation dealing in wood and in various otherforest products. Iṅgāla-kamma was another occupation which was concerned with preparing charcoal from firewood.

Dhānya represents one of the classes of the external (bahya) division of attachment (parigraha) and is related to the Aparigraha-vrata (vow of non-attachment).
Source: archive.org: The Jaina IconographyPriyaṃgu (प्रियंगु) refers to the tree associated with Sumatinātha: the fifth of twenty-four Tīrthaṃkaras or Jinas, commonly depicted in Jaina iconography.—Sumatinātha is known from the Jaina Literature to be associaledwith the symbol of a curlow (Krauñca) or a red goose. The Kevala tree, in his case, is Priyaṃgu. The Yakṣa and Yakṣī attending upon him in the image are named Tumbaru and Mahākālī. His chowribearer is called Mitravīrya.
Source: archive.org: TrisastisalakapurusacaritraPriyaṅgu (प्रियङ्गु) is the wife of king Viśvanandin, according to chapter 4.1 [śreyāṃsanātha-caritra] of Hemacandra’s 11th century Triṣaṣṭiśalākāpuruṣacaritra: an ancient Sanskrit epic poem narrating the history and legends of sixty-three illustrious persons in Jainism.
Accordingly:—“Now in the city Rājagṛha King Viśvanandin had a son, Viśākhanandin, by his wife Priyaṅgu. Viśvanandin had a younger brother, crown prince, Viśākhabhūti, intelligent, heroic, well-bred, politic. Marīci’s jīva became the son of Viśākhabhūti by his wife Dhāriṇī because of rewards gained in a former birth. His parents gave him the name Viśvabhūti and he gradually grew up, cherished by nurses. He learned all the arts and acquired all the virtues and gradually attained youth—the embodied ornament of the body”.
Jainism is an Indian religion of Dharma whose doctrine revolves around harmlessness (ahimsa) towards every living being. The two major branches (Digambara and Svetambara) of Jainism stimulate self-control (or, shramana, ‘self-reliance’) and spiritual development through a path of peace for the soul to progess to the ultimate goal.
India history and geography
Source: Shodhganga: Cultural history as g leaned from kathasaritsagaraPriyangu is the name of a tree mentioned in the Kathasaritsagara by Somadeva (10th century A.D).—Priyangu is mentioned always for its black-colored flowers. A lady is always mentioned as dark as a priyangu flower.
Somadeva mentions many rich forests, gardens, various trees (e.g., Priyangu), creepers medicinal and flowering plants and fruit-bearing trees in the Kathasaritsagara. Travel through the thick, high, impregnable and extensive Vindhya forest is a typical feature of many travel-stories. Somadeva’s writing more or less reflects the life of the people of Northern India during the 11th century. His Kathasaritsagara (‘ocean of streams of story’), mentioning Priyangu, is a famous Sanskrit epic story revolving around prince Naravahanadatta and his quest to become the emperor of the vidyadharas (celestial beings).
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.
