Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
Utsarga (उत्सर्ग).—A son of Mitra and Revatī*
- * Bhāgavata-purāṇa VI. 18. 6.
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.
Vyakarana (Sanskrit grammar)
Utsarga (उत्सर्ग).—A general rule as contrasted with a special rule which is called अपवाद (apavāda) or exception; cf. उत्सर्गापवादयो-रपवादो बलीयान् (utsargāpavādayo-rapavādo balīyān) Hema. Pari.56; प्रकल्प्य वापवादविषयं तत उत्सर्गोभिनिविशते (prakalpya vāpavādaviṣayaṃ tata utsargobhiniviśate) Par.Śek. Pari.63, Sīra. Pari.97; cf. also उत्सर्ग-समानदेशा अपवादा (utsarga-samānadeśā apavādā);. For the बाध्यबाधकभाव (bādhyabādhakabhāva) relation between उत्सर्ग (utsarga) and अपवाद (apavāda) and its details see Nāgeśa's Paribhāṣenduśekhara on Paribhāṣās 57 to 65: cf. also न्यायैर्मिश्रान् अपवादान्प्रतीयात् (nyāyairmiśrān apavādānpratīyāt) explained by the commentator as न्याया उत्सर्गा महाविषया विधयः अपवादा अल्प-विषया विधयः । तान् उत्सर्गेण भिश्रानेकीकृतान् जानीयात् । अपवादविषयं मुक्त्वा उत्सर्गाः प्रवर्तन्ते इत्यर्थः (nyāyā utsargā mahāviṣayā vidhayaḥ apavādā alpa-viṣayā vidhayaḥ | tān utsargeṇa bhiśrānekīkṛtān jānīyāt | apavādaviṣayaṃ muktvā utsargāḥ pravartante ityarthaḥ) R.Pr.I.23.
Vyakarana (व्याकरण, vyākaraṇa) refers to Sanskrit grammar and represents one of the six additional sciences (vedanga) to be studied along with the Vedas. Vyakarana concerns itself with the rules of Sanskrit grammar and linguistic analysis in order to establish the correct context of words and sentences.
Shaivism (Shaiva philosophy)
Utsarga (उत्सर्ग) or Utsargavidhi refers to “that which supersedes (the general rule)”, according to Tantrālokaviveka commentary on the Tantrāloka verses 4.230ab-232ab.—Accordingly, “[...] So, if you properly consider the procedure of invalidation, then (you will realize that) no injunction whatever loses reality. To explain: the rule that is the exception—by nature specific because it is (generally) void of any occasion (for application)—supersedes the general rule (utsarga-vidhi), which, being one that always has met with its occasion (for application), is by nature generally applicable. This is what those who know language say:—[‘Moreover, purity and impurity, which are generally enjoined, are simply superseded when a man knows reality. This is how it has been explained here (in the Mālinīvijayottara)’]”.
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.
Natyashastra (theatrics and dramaturgy)
Utsarga (उत्सर्ग) refers to “passing of urine” which should be avoided on a stage (where a dramatic play is performed).—A Nāṭaka should contain pañcasandhis which indicate five successive stages of the drama. This criterion also is present in the Mudrārākṣasa. [...] In the Sāhityadarpaṇa, Viśvanātha gives a list of certain actions which should not be presented on the stage. These are [e.g., passing of urine (utsarga)] [...].
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).
Kama-shastra (the science of Love-making)
Utsarga (उत्सर्ग) refers to the “dismissal of a singer (after one’s audition)” (i.e., the decision to “send away” a singer after their audition), according to chapter 1.4 of Vātsyāyana’s Kāmasūtra: a Sanskrit text from the 2nd century dealing with eroticism, sexuality and emotional fulfillment in life belonging to Kāmaśāstra (the ancient Indian science of love-making).—Accordingly [while describing the routine-duties of a citizen with respect to festivals]: “On some particular auspicious day, an assembly of citizens should be convened in the temple of Saraswati. There the skill of singers, and of others who may have come recently to the town, should be tested, and on the following day they should always be given some rewards. After that they may either be retained or dismissed (utsarga), according as their performances are liked or not by the assembly. [tato yathāśraddham eṣāṃ darśanam utsargo vā] [...]”.
Kamashastra (कामशास्त्र, kāmaśāstra) deals with ancient Indian science of love-making, passion, emotions and other related topics dealing with the pleasures of the senses.
In Buddhism
Mahayana (major branch of Buddhism)
Utsarga (उत्सर्ग) refers to “renounce”, according to the Gaganagañjaparipṛcchā: the eighth chapter of the Mahāsaṃnipāta (a collection of Mahāyāna Buddhist Sūtras).—Accordingly, as Gaganagañja said to Ratnapāṇi: “Son of good family, the thirty-two dharmas are included in sixty-four dharmas. What are those sixty-four? [...] (13) harmlessness is included in love and having faith in the maturation of action; (14) contentment with one’s own possessions is included in little desire and knowing satisfaction; (15) self-control is included in no agitation and no dispute; (16) calmness is included in renounce (utsarga) and eliminating the concept of mine; [...]’”.
Utsarga (उत्सर्ग) refers to the “sending forth (of rain)”, according to the Vajratuṇḍasamayakalparāja, an ancient Buddhist ritual manual on agriculture from the 5th-century (or earlier), containing various instructions for the Sangha to provide agriculture-related services to laypeople including rainmaking, weather control and prescriptions for the use of specially empowered pesticides to eliminate crop damage.—The Vajratuṇḍa-samayakalparāja consists of six chapters, e.g., (2) vaiśramaṇabhavanapraveśanāgasamaya nāma varṣaṇa-m-utsarga—The Sending forth of Rain, called Entry into the Residence of Vaiśramaṇa Nāga Vow.
Mahayana (महायान, mahāyāna) is a major branch of Buddhism focusing on the path of a Bodhisattva (spiritual aspirants/ enlightened beings). Extant literature is vast and primarely composed in the Sanskrit language. There are many sūtras of which some of the earliest are the various Prajñāpāramitā sūtras.
In Jainism
General definition (in Jainism)
Utsarga (उत्सर्ग) or Utsargasamiti (also known as Pratiṣṭhāpana) refers to “(the care) in regard to sanitation”, and represents one of the five Samiti (“five kinds of carefulness”), according to chapter 1.1 [ādīśvara-caritra] of Hemacandra’s 11th century Triṣaṣṭiśalākāpuruṣacaritra: an ancient Sanskrit epic poem narrating the history and legends of sixty-three illustrious persons in Jainism.—Accordingly, in the sermon of Sūri Dharmaghoṣa:—“[...] the gift of supporting dharma (dharmopagrahadāna) is five-fold: purity of giver, receiver, gift, time, and thought. [... ] That gift would have purity of receiver, whose receiver is such a man [who] observes the five kinds of carefulness (samiti) [viz., utsarga-samiti], [...]”.
Utsarga (उत्सर्ग) or Kāyotsarga refers to “abandonment (of the body)”, according to the 11th century Jñānārṇava, a treatise on Jain Yoga in roughly 2200 Sanskrit verses composed by Śubhacandra.—Accordingly, “On a flat piece of wood or stone, on the ground or on sandy soil, the wise [person] should adopt a stable posture for the accomplishment of absorption. Thus, sitting cross-legged, sitting half cross-legged, thunderbolt, hero posture and the previously mentioned pleasant and lotus [postures] as well as abandonment of the body (kāya-utsarga) is highly thought of. [...]”.
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.

Utsarga (उत्सर्ग) in the Sanskrit language is related to the Prakrit word: Ussagga.
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.
