In Hinduism
Pancaratra (worship of Nārāyaṇa)
Sāmpradāyika (साम्प्रदायिक) refers to the “traditionally handing down (stotras—hymns of praise)”, as discussed in chapter 11 of the (fourth part of the) Śāṇḍilyasaṃhitā: a Pāñcarātra text comprising 3600 Sanskrit verses dealing with devotion towards Kṛṣṇa who is identified with the Supreme, as well as ethical behavior and pious practices to be observed by devotees (bhaktas).—Description of the chapter [sāmpradāyika-stotra-nirūpaṇa]: Here are given several (presumably traditional) stotras of praise: Puruṣottama-stotra (1-10), the Nārāyaṇa-stotra (11-19), the Nārada-stotra (38-46), the Śeṣa-stotra (20-28), the Tripurāri-stotra (29-37), the Vyāsa-stotra (47-55), the Pīṭha-stotra (56-87-including a discussion of pīṭhas).
Pancaratra (पाञ्चरात्र, pāñcarātra) represents a tradition of Hinduism where Narayana is revered and worshipped. Closeley related to Vaishnavism, the Pancaratra literature includes various Agamas and tantras incorporating many Vaishnava philosophies.
Natyashastra (theatrics and dramaturgy)
Sāmpradāyika (साम्प्रदायिक) refers to one of the four main varieties of Cālakas (“variety of hand-movements”), according to Kallinātha’s Kalānidhi commentary on the Saṅgītaratnākara 7.349 (Vol. IV, pp.110-125).—Kohala classifies the different varieties of cālakas viz. anvartha, nāmagamya, prāyogika and sāmpradāyika. Kohala says that there are several other varieties also which have been described by authorities like Bhaṭṭa Taṇḍu. He says that there are a hundred types of cālakas in the auspicious art of nṛtta. Nārada speaks of seven hundred cālakas, and in a work called Deśīnṛttasamudra, Śambhu (Lord Śiva) teaches Taṇḍu a thousand different varieties of cālakas. Kohala says that though there are infinite number of cālakas, the ones that are actively being used in lakṣya alone are being described by him.
Natyashastra (नाट्यशास्त्र, nāṭyaśāstra) refers to both the ancient Indian tradition (shastra) of performing arts, (natya—theatrics, drama, dance, music), as well as the name of a Sanskrit work dealing with these subjects. It also teaches the rules for composing Dramatic plays (nataka), construction and performance of Theater, and Poetic works (kavya).
