Samāyāta (समायात) refers to “(having) come near (someone)”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.3.24 (“Śiva consents to marry Pārvatī”).—Accordingly, as Śiva said to the Gods and others: “O great gods, Viṣṇu, Brahmā and others, why have you come [i.e., samāyāta] near me? Mention the reason for the same”.

Samāyāta (समायात) in the Sanskrit language is related to the Prakrit word: Samāyāya.

context information

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.
