In Hinduism
Shaktism (Shakta philosophy)
Source: Google Books: Manthanabhairavatantram1) Samutpannā (समुत्पन्ना) refers to the “origination (of Mantras)”, according to the Ṣaṭsāhasrasaṃhitā, an expansion of the Kubjikāmatatantra: the earliest popular and most authoritative Tantra of the Kubjikā cult.—Accordingly, “[...] The form she bears is desire and, tranquil, (she) is you, Kubjinī the mother of Kula. Mantras originate [samutpannā] from that and so her nature is desire. And as her form is (coiled like an) earring (kuṇḍalī), she is said to be Kubjinī (‘bent over’). She is the goddess with two arms and one face, or with many arms and faces. She should be thought of at all times as being in accord with the form of passion. Established in movement, she is in the midst of movement. The mistress of motion, her body is movement. Motion is said to be the wind. She is said to be its mistress”.
2) Samutpanna (समुत्पन्न) refers to the “arising” (of the universe), according to the Śrīmatottara-tantra, an expansion of the Kubjikāmatatantra: the earliest popular and most authoritative Tantra of the Kubjikā cult.—Accordingly, “Akula is said to be the principle that, self-existent, does not require Kula in order to exist. It is Śiva, the supreme cause. Kula is that from which the universe arises (samutpanna—yato viśvaṃ samutpannaṃ). It is that in which it is established and where it is dissolved away. That Kula is said to be Kaula”.
Shakta (शाक्त, śākta) or Shaktism (śāktism) represents a tradition of Hinduism where the Goddess (Devi) is revered and worshipped. Shakta literature includes a range of scriptures, including various Agamas and Tantras, although its roots may be traced back to the Vedas.
Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
Source: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English TranslationSamutpanna (समुत्पन्न) refers to the “birth” (of a son), according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.3.15 (“The penance and reign of Tārakāsura”).—Accordingly, as Tāraka said to Brahmā: “[...] O great lord, there should certainly be no man equal to me in strength in this entire universe created by you. If a son born of Śiva [i.e., samutpanna—śivavīryasamutpannaḥ putraḥ] becomes the commander-in-chief of an army and discharges weapons against me, let my death occur then”.
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.

Source: Wisdom Library: Brihat Samhita by VarahamihiraSamutpanna (समुत्पन्न) refers to “growing (crops)”, according to the Bṛhatsaṃhitā (chapter 15) (“On the nakṣatras—‘asterisms’”), an encyclopedic Sanskrit work written by Varāhamihira mainly focusing on the science of ancient Indian astronomy astronomy (Jyotiṣa).—Accordingly, “Those who are born on the lunar day of Anurādhā will be valiant; heads of parties; fond of the company of Sādhus, keep vehicles and grow every species of crop [i.e., śarad-samutpanna]. Those who are born on the lunar day of Jyeṣṭhā will be valiant, of good descent, wealthy, famous; disposed to cheat others of their property, fond of travelling, rulers of provinces or commanders of armies. [...]”.
Jyotisha (ज्योतिष, jyotiṣa or jyotish) refers to ‘astronomy’ or “Vedic astrology” and represents the fifth of the six Vedangas (additional sciences to be studied along with the Vedas). Jyotisha concerns itself with the study and prediction of the movements of celestial bodies, in order to calculate the auspicious time for rituals and ceremonies.
Shaivism (Shaiva philosophy)
Source: Brill: Śaivism and the Tantric TraditionsSamutpanna (समुत्पन्न) refers to “(that which has) arisen (from the seed of desire)”, according to the Vārāṇasīmāhātmya verse 1.114.—Accordingly, “The great tree of transmigration has arisen from the seed of desire (rāga-bīja-samutpanna). After cutting the tree with the axe of indifference, whose sharp blade is disattachment, they proceed on the Atimārga”.
Source: SOAS University of London: Protective Rites in the Netra TantraSamutpanna (समुत्पन्न) refers to the “arising” (of seventy-million mantras), according to the Netratantra of Kṣemarāja: a Śaiva text from the 9th century in which Śiva (Bhairava) teaches Pārvatī topics such as metaphysics, cosmology, and soteriology.—Accordingly, [verse 2.22cd-28ab]—“From this authority, the seventy-million mantras arise (samutpanna). The terminal letter shining with various light, [which is the] split belly of the moon [j], is placed upon a hook [u], and yoked with the last rising horizon [i.e., the wind or last labial nasalization] [ṃ]. That which is described is celebrated in the world as the supreme Amṛta [sa], this is the highest dwelling place. [...]”.
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.

Tibetan Buddhism (Vajrayana or tantric Buddhism)

In Jainism
General definition (in Jainism)
Source: The University of Sydney: A study of the Twelve ReflectionsSamutpanna (समुत्पन्न) refers to “that which is produced” (by the objects of the senses), according to the 11th century Jñānārṇava, a treatise on Jain Yoga in roughly 2200 Sanskrit verses composed by Śubhacandra.—Accordingly, “Fool, having formed a delight in pleasure which is produced by the objects of the senses (hṛṣīkārtha-samutpanna) [and is] continually transitory, the three worlds are destroyed”.
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.
