In Buddhism
Tibetan Buddhism (Vajrayana or tantric Buddhism)
Source: MDPI Books: The Ocean of HeroesSaṃvarodayatantra (संवरोदयतन्त्र) (or simply Saṃvarodaya) was probably composed in Nepal after the compilation of the Kālacakra in India.—The death signs introduced in the Ḍākārṇava-tantra are very likely to be extended or developed versions of the discourses of the same topic found in the Saṃvarodayatantra. The teachings of the chakras (cakra) and inner channels (nāḍī) in the Ḍākārṇava are more detailed and appear to be more developed than the teaching of the same topic in the Saṃvarodayatantra. The Saṃvarodaya was translated into Tibetan (D 373/P 20) by Gzhan la phan pa mtha’ yas (Indian) and Rgyus ban de smon lam grags (Tibetan). Their translation was finalized by Gzhon nu dpal (late 14th–15th century), who used Vanaratna’s (mid-14th to mid-15th century) Sanskrit manuscript of this scripture. Ratnarakṣita, who composed the Padminī commentary on the Saṃvarodaya, was active around 1200 CE.
Tibetan Buddhism includes schools such as Nyingma, Kadampa, Kagyu and Gelug. Their primary canon of literature is divided in two broad categories: The Kangyur, which consists of Buddha’s words, and the Tengyur, which includes commentaries from various sources. Esotericism and tantra techniques (vajrayāna) are collected indepently.

[Sanskrit to German]
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.
