Rasashastra (रसशास्त्र, rasaśāstra) is an important branch of Ayurveda, specialising in chemical interactions with herbs, metals and minerals. Some texts combine yogic and tantric practices with various alchemical operations. The ultimate goal of Rasashastra is not only to preserve and prolong life, but also to bestow wealth upon humankind.

They should be worshipped with either the five upācāras or perfume and flowers.
Her mantra is as follows:
ॐ ऋद्ध्यै नमः

Ayurveda (science of life)
Source: Shodhganga: Edition translation and critical study of yogasarasamgrahaṚddhi (ऋद्धि) refers to the medicinal plant known as “Habenaria edgeworthii Hook. f. ex Collett.” and is dealt with in the 15th-century Yogasārasaṅgraha (Yogasara-saṅgraha) by Vāsudeva: an unpublished Keralite work representing an Ayurvedic compendium of medicinal recipes. The Yogasārasaṃgraha [mentioning ṛddhi] deals with entire recipes in the route of administration, and thus deals with the knowledge of pharmacy (bhaiṣajya-kalpanā) which is a branch of pharmacology (dravyaguṇa).
Source: WorldCat: Rāj nighaṇṭuṚddhi (ऋद्धि) is the Sanskrit name for an unidentified medicinal plant, according to verse 5.28-33 of the 13th-century Raj Nighantu or Rājanighaṇṭu. Notes: Also see Vṛddhi. On the name of Ṛddhi and Vṛddhi the Habenaria species are being supplied in the market (Th. B.S. et al. and P.V.S.). Th. B.S. suggests another species for consideration and investigation i.e. Ciraiyākanda or Mālākanda (Eulophia nuda Lindl.).—The tuberous roots of Ṛddhi and Vṛddhi are covered in a sheath. These tubers are white, hairy, porous. The main plant is a creeper.
Ṛddhi is mentioned as having eleven synonyms: Siddhi, Prāṇadā, Jīvadātrī, Siddhā, Yogyā, Cetanīyā, Rathāṅgī, Maṅgalyā, Lokakāntā, Yaśasyā and Jīvaśreṣṭhā.
Properties and characteristics: “Both Ṛddhi and Vṛddhi are sweet, bitter, cold and unctuous. They improve appetite and mental power. Both are good anthelmintics and control kuṣṭha (leprosy and allied skin diseases) and kapha. In the preparations of fomularies any one of these may serve the purpose according to needs. Their simultaneous use is advised, where both of these are available”.

Indian Medicinal Plants, Arya Vaidya Sala 3:110, 1993-96.).—Habenaria edgeworthii Hook.f. ex Collett is a synonym of Platanthera edgeworthii (Hook.f. ex Collett) R.K.Gupta.—(Cf.

Pañcābhijña represents one of the qualities possessed by the Bodhisattvas that accompanied the Buddha.
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.

Source: Wisdom Library: Dharma-samgrahaṚddhi (ऋद्धि) refers to “spiritual power” and represents one of the “five deep knowledges” (pañcābhijñā) as defined in the Dharma-saṃgraha (section 20). The Dharma-samgraha (Dharmasangraha) is an extensive glossary of Buddhist technical terms in Sanskrit (e.g., pañca-abhijñāu and ṛddhi). The work is attributed to Nagarjuna who lived around the 2nd century A.D.

General definition (in Jainism)
Source: archive.org: Jaina YogaṚddhi (ऋद्धि, “wealth”) as in ṛddhi-mada refers to “pride in one’s wealth” and represents one of the eight forms of vainglory (mada), according to Samantabhadra in his Ratna-Karaṇḍa-śrāvakācāra (with commentary of Prabhācandra). These eight madas are included in the twenty-five blemishes (dṛg-doṣas), which are generally held to be the eight madas, the three mūḍhatās, the six anāyatanas, and the eight doṣas.
Source: archive.org: TrisastisalakapurusacaritraṚddhi (ऋद्धि) or Ṛddhigaurava refers to “(the vanity of) riches”, according to chapter 1.1 [ādīśvara-caritra] of Hemacandra’s 11th century Triṣaṣṭiśalākāpuruṣacaritra (“lives of the 63 illustrious persons”): a Sanskrit epic poem narrating the history and legends of sixty-three important persons in Jainism.—Accordingly, in the sermon of Sūri Dharmaghoṣa:—“[...] the gift of supporting dharma (dharmopagrahadāna) is five-fold: purity of giver, receiver, gift, time, and thought. [... ] That gift would have purity of receiver, whose receiver is such a man [who is] lacking in three vanities (gaurava) [viz., ṛddhi-gaurava], [...]”.—(Cf. Samavāyāṅgasūtra 3, p. 9a. Uttarādhyayana 31.4).
Source: Encyclopedia of Jainism: Tattvartha Sutra 3: The Lower and middle worldsṚddhi (ऋद्धि).—How many types of “extraordinary powers” (ṛddhis) are there? Some ascetics attain extraordinary powers to produce worldly miracles. Such attainments are called ṛddhi.
Ṛddhi (extraordinary powers) is of eight types, namely:
- intellect (buddhi),
- activity (kriyā),
- change of form (vikriyā),
- austerity (tapas),
- might (bala),
- healing power (auṣadhi),
- occult power to change food (rasa).
- power to ensure inexhaustible food and space (kṣetra).
The word extraordinary is attached as a prefix to each of these eight types.
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.

Source: Cologne Digital Sanskrit Dictionaries: Indian Epigraphical GlossaryṚddhi.—(EI 3), supernatural power. Note: ṛddhi 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 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, 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.
