In Jainism
General definition (in Jainism)
: archive.org: Jaina Yoga骋峁浢眏补苍补 (啶椸啶炧啶溹え) is the name of an edible root which is classifed as 补苍补苍迟补-办腻测补, or 鈥減lants that are inhabited by an infinite number of living organisms鈥�, and therefore are abhak峁a (forbidden to consume) according to Hemacandra (in his Yoga艣膩stra 3.44-46). Those plants which are classified as 补苍补苍迟补-办腻测补s (e.g., amaya-valli) seem to be chosen because of certain morphological peculiarities such as the possession of bulbs or rhizomes orthe habit of periodically shedding their leaves; and in general theyare characterized by possibilities of vegetative reproduction.
