In Buddhism
Tibetan Buddhism (Vajrayana or tantric Buddhism)
Source: Wisdomlib Libary: VajrayanaSaroruha or Sakara is the name of a mahāsiddha, of which eighty-four in total are recognized in Vajrayāna (tantric buddhism). His title is “the lotus-born”. He lived somewhere between the 8th and the 12th century AD.
These mahāsiddhas (e.g., Saroruha) are defined according to the Abhayadatta Sri (possibly Abhayākaragupta) tradition. Its textual origin traces to the 11th century caturāsiti-siddha-pravṛtti, or “the lives of the eighty-four siddhas”, of which only Tibetan translations remains. Saroruha (and other Mahāsiddhas) are the ancient propounders of the textual tradition of tantric or Vajrayana Buddhism.
Source: MDPI Books: The Ocean of HeroesSaroruha (सरोरुह) (also called Padmavajra) is the author of the Bohitā: an extensive commentary on the Ḍākārṇava-tantra: one of the last Tibetan Tantric scriptures belonging to the Buddhist Saṃvara tradition consisting of 51 chapters.—Note: There were multiple Tantric masters who were named Padmavajra, Saroruhavajra, and Saroruha. It seems unlikely that the author of the Bohitā, named Padmavajra, was identical to the famous Siddha Padmavajra or Padmavajra of the Hevajra scriptural tradition.
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, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!).
