Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English Translationñپ (ज्ञाति) refers to “kinsmen�, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.2.40.—Accordingly, as Brahmā narrated to Nārada:—“[...] after going beyond , the capital of the king of Yakṣas and the Saugandhika park, they saw the fig-tree of Śiva. [...] Beneath that ṭa of yogic potentialities, Viṣṇu and other Devas saw Śiva seated. [...] He was being attended upon by his friend Kubera, the lord of Guhyakas and Rakṣas and particularly by his attendants and kinsmen (i.e., ñپ)�.

In Buddhism
Mahayana (major branch of Buddhism)
Source: Wisdom Library: Maha Prajnaparamita Sastrañپ (ज्ञाति, “relative�).—According to the 2nd century Mahāprañpāramitāśāstra (chapter XIV), “all beings obtained the mind of equanimity (samacitta) by thinking of one another with the feelings one would feel (for example) for one’s relatives (ñپ)�.
In the course of innumerable generations, all beings have been one’s relatives (ñپ), father, mother, elder brother, younger brother, elder sister, younger sister and relative. Furthermore, according to the true nature (ٲⲹṣaṇa) of dharmas, there is no father or mother, no elder or younger brother; but people who are submerged in the error of self believe in their existence and thus there is the question of father and mother, elder and younger brother. Therefore it is not a lie when, by virtue of a wholesome mind (śٳٲ), we consider one another with the feelings we would feel (for example) for one’s relatives (ñپ).

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 ūٰ of which some of the earliest are the various Prañpāramitā ūٰ.
