In Hinduism
Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
Saṃgata (संगत).—(SAṄGATA). A King of the Maurya dynasty. He was the son of King Suyaśas and the father of King Śāliśūraka. (Bhāgavata, Skandha 12).
Saṃgata (संगत) refers to “having accrued (merit)” [?], according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.3.32 (“The seven celestial sages arrive”).—Accordingly, as the Seven Sages said to Śiva: “[...] Formerly we had performed three kinds of penance; we had studied the excellent Vedas; we had made offerings in the fire, we had visited many holy centres; thus whatever merit we have acquired verbally, mentally and physically that entire merit has now accrued to us (saṃgata—tatsarvaṃ saṃgataṃ cādya) by your blessing in remembering us. A man who worships you always shall be blessed. How can that merit be properly described, the merit of those whom you yourself remember? [...]”.
Saṅgata (सङ्गत).—A son of Suyaśas, and father of Śāliśūka.*
- * Bhāgavata-purāṇa XII. 1. 14.
The Purana (पुराण, purāṇas) refers to Sanskrit literature preserving ancient India’s vast cultural history, including historical legends, religious ceremonies, various arts and sciences. The eighteen mahapuranas total over 400,000 shlokas (metrical couplets) and date to at least several centuries BCE.
Chandas (prosody, study of Sanskrit metres)
Saṃgatā (संगता) is the name of a catuṣpadi metre (as popularly employed by the Apabhraṃśa bards), as discussed in books such as the Chandonuśāsana, Kavidarpaṇa, Vṛttajātisamuccaya and Svayambhūchandas.—Saṃgatā has 30 mātrās in each of its four lines, divided into the groups of [SII], [SII], [SII], [SII], [SII], [SII], [SII] and [S] mātrās.
Chandas (छन्दस्) refers to Sanskrit prosody and represents one of the six Vedangas (auxiliary disciplines belonging to the study of the Vedas). The science of prosody (chandas-shastra) focusses on the study of the poetic meters such as the commonly known twenty-six metres mentioned by Pingalas.
Kavya (poetry)
1)Saṃgata (संगत) refers to a “meeting” (e.g., ‘the ministers joining the chaplain’), according to Kālidāsa’s Raghuvaṃśa verse 19.54.—Accordingly: “The ministers joined by (saṃgata) the chaplain who knew the last rites placed him on the pyre in secret in the palace garden under the pretext of a ceremony that averts disease”.
2) Saṃgata (संगत) also refers to “(being) united”, according to the Raghuvaṃśa.—Accordingly, “The mantras of Vasiṣṭha, the Guru, and the arrows (sāyaka) of that archer—what is there to achieve that these two could not achieve when united (saṅgata)?”.
Kavya (काव्य, kavya) refers to Sanskrit poetry, a popular ancient Indian tradition of literature. There have been many Sanskrit poets over the ages, hailing from ancient India and beyond. This topic includes mahakavya, or ‘epic poetry’ and natya, or ‘dramatic poetry’.
Gitashastra (science of music)
Saṅgata (सङ्गत) refers to one of the twelve Tālas classified as Vibhaṅgatāla, which are associated with the Dhruvā-gāna.—[...] Though belonged to the mārga tradition, Dhrūvā-gāna included some tālas which were employed in nāṭya and yet not described in Nāṭyaśāstra. These tālas were classified as bhaṅga, upabhaṅga and vibhaṅga [e.g., saṅgata-tāla]. These have not been mentioned by Bharata, but they are still considered to be a part of mārga. They do not belong to the deśī tradition. M. R. Kavi also gives a list of tālas associated with Dhruvāgāna.
Gitashastra (गीतशास्त्र, gītaśāstra) refers to the ancient Indian science of Music (gita or samgita), which is traditionally divided in Vocal music, Instrumental music and Dance (under the jurisdiction of music). The different elements and technical terms are explained in a wide range of (often Sanskrit) literature.
Shaivism (Shaiva philosophy)
Saṅgata (सङ्गत) refers to “one who has indulged in” (sensual desires), 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, “Having damaged his stock of ashes, the earthen vessel, clothes, needle-and-clew, and the water vessel and the skull-bowl, he should observe a Cāndrāyaṇa vow. (8) One should never talk to one who, [even] after having renounced, has indulged in (saṅgata) [sensual] desires and their enjoyment; one should not touch his [belongings]. Whatever he has touched or has been in his possession, one should consider all that as not to be eaten. Having eaten [such food], he should observe a Cāndrāyaṇa vow. (9–10)”.
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.
