In Hinduism
Vedanta (school of philosophy)
Samādhimat (समाधिमत्) refers to “one who is in meditation”, according to the Aṣṭāvakragītā (5th century BC), an ancient text on spirituality dealing with Advaita-Vedānta topics.—Accordingly, [as Aṣṭavakra says to Janaka]: “[...] Not distracted in distraction, in mental stillness not poised (samādhimat) [vikṣepe'pi na vikṣiptaḥ samādhau na samādhimān], in stupidity not stupid, that blessed one is not even wise in his wisdom. The liberated man is self-possessed in all circumstances and free from the idea of ‘done’ and ‘still to do’. He is the same wherever he is and without greed. He does not dwell on what he has done or not done. [...]”.
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).

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.
