In Buddhism
Theravada (major branch of Buddhism)
Source: Pali Kanon: Manual of Buddhist Terms and DoctrinesVipatti (“aberration” or “deviation”), may be: deviation from morality (sīla-vipatti), or deviation from understanding (ditthivipatti).—“To deviate in deeds, or in words, or in both deeds and words: this is called deviation from morality. 'Alms and offerings are useless, there is no fruit and result of good and bad actions, there are no such things as this and the next life' .... Such wrong views are called deviation from understanding.” (Pug. 67, 68)
Theravāda is a major branch of Buddhism having the the Pali canon (tipitaka) as their canonical literature, which includes the vinaya-pitaka (monastic rules), the sutta-pitaka (Buddhist sermons) and the abhidhamma-pitaka (philosophy and psychology).
In Jainism
General definition (in Jainism)
Source: The University of Sydney: A study of the Twelve ReflectionsVipatti (विपत्ति) refers to “death”, according to the 11th century Jñānārṇava, a treatise on Jain Yoga in roughly 2200 Sanskrit verses composed by Śubhacandra.—Accordingly, “One of confused intelligence does not perceive his own death (vipatti—vipattiṃ svasya mūḍhadhīḥ) as [he does the death] of another like the one staying in a tree in a burning forest that is teeming with life. As the young so the old, as the rich so the poor, as the brave so the cowardly—Yama devours [all] equally”.
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.
