In Hinduism

Shaktism (Shakta philosophy)

Uḍḍīnā (उड्डीना) means “in ascent”.—Śitikaṇṭha, who was a teacher of the Kashmiri Kālīkrama, derives the name of this seat [i.e., Uḍḍiyāna/Oḍḍiyāna] in a similar way: here in (this) sacred seat Śakti flies up by the outpouring of energy (pīṭhe śakter ullāsanena śaktir atra uḍḍīnā [Mahānayaprakāśa by Śitikaṇṭha.] p. 49). Sanderson himself quotes the line that follows in the same passage which he translates as: “The (name) Oḍḍiyāna is appropriately applied because the Śakti of the residents of this Pīṭha is seen to be very, i.e. permanently, “in ascent” (uḍḍīnā, i.e. vibrant)”.

Ayurveda (science of life)

Uḍḍīna (उड्डीन) or Uḍḍīnatantra is the name of a work related to Ayurveda and medicine referenced by the “cikitsa bidhane tantrasastra”—a Bengali work authored by ‘Krishna Chaitanya Thakur’ in three volumes dealing with the treatments for diseases and disorders collected from Tantric and Ayurvedic texts.—Eastern India is one of the major strongholds of Tantrism in South Asia, and this region, particularly Bengal, has played and still plays a prominent role in the development of Āyurveda. It is indeed a fact that much medically relevant material is to be found in [the Uḍḍīna-tantra, or other] Tantric texts. The “cikitsā bidhāne tantraśāstra” (by Kṛṣṇacaitanya Ṭhākur) contains wealth of medicines and remedies for a large variety of diseases and disorders, arranged according to the individual diseases or disorders. The material presented is culled from a variety of texts [e.g., uḍḍīna-tantra], [most of which] seem to be classed as Tantric, but some are quite obviously not so, though their material may be related to that to be found in Tantric texts.

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.
