In Buddhism
Mahayana (major branch of Buddhism)
Source: academia.edu: A Study and Translation of the GaganagañjaparipṛcchāVisāmagrī (विसामग्री) refers to “(those who are) beyond the fruition of causes”, according to the Gaganagañjaparipṛcchā: the eighth chapter of the Mahāsaṃnipāta (a collection of Mahāyāna Buddhist Sūtras).—Accordingly: “[...] That is to say, this dharma is produced as a result from causes and conditions, but even so there is no activity nor agent in them. Those who perceive things thus are beyond the fruition of causes (visāmagrī). Why is that? This is because the Lord said that understanding defilements is purification but suppressing defilements is not purification as the essential character of defilement is purification. [...]”.
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.

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.
