Vedanta (school of philosophy)
: Wikisource: Ashtavakra GitaKheda (खेà¤�) refers to “distressâ€� (e.g., due to one’s body, tongue or mind), according to the Aá¹£á¹ÄvakragÄ«tÄ (5th century BC), an ancient text on spirituality dealing with Advaita-VedÄnta topics.—Accordingly, [as Janaka says to Aá¹£á¹avakra]: “The inner freedom of having nothing is hard to achieve, even with just a loin-cloth, but I live as I please abandoning both renunciation and acquisition. Sometimes one experiences distress (kheda) because of one's body, sometimes because of one's tongue [kutrÄpi °ì³ó±ð»å²¹á¸� kÄyasya jihvÄ kutrÄpi khidyate], and sometimes because of one's mind. Abandoning all of these, I live as I please in the goal of human existence. [...]â€�.

Vedanta (वेदानà¥à¤�, vedÄnta) refers to a school of orthodox Hindu philosophy (astika), drawing its subject-matter from the Upanishads.

What are those sixty-four? [...] (29) spiritual friends is included in the wish to listen and serving; (30) adequately grasping is included in the lightness of body and thought; (31) intensive reflection is included in being free from lassitude (kheda) and desire; (32) heroic reflection is included in never neglecting causes or effectsâ€�.

In Jainism
General definition (in Jainism)
: The University of Sydney: A study of the Twelve ReflectionsKheda (खेà¤�) refers to “distressâ€�, according to the 11th century JñÄnÄrṇava, a treatise on Jain Yoga in roughly 2200 Sanskrit verses composed by Åšubhacandra.—Accordingly, “If children, wives, wealth, relations [and] bodies will inevitably go away [com.â€�therefore, no distress (°ì³ó±ð»å²¹á¸�) is to be created (°ìÄå°ù²â²¹á¸�)], then why is one distressed uselessly for the sake of them?â€�.

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.
India history and geography
: archive.org: Personal and geographical names in the Gupta inscriptions°³ó±ðá¸a (खेà¤�) or °³ó±ðá¹a is analogous to °³ó±ðá¹á¹²¹: the Prakrit form of °á¹£e³Ù°ù²¹: a name-ending for place-names mentioned in the Gupta inscriptions (reigned from 3rd century CE). Analogous to °ì³ó±ðá¹á¹²¹ is the word â€�°ì³ó±ðá¸aâ€� or â€�°ì³ó±ðá¹aâ€� which means ‘a city surrounded by rivers and mountainsâ€�. °³ó±ðá¹a meaning ‘a small hamletâ€� is also found in PÄṇini (VI. 2. 126). The SamarÄá¹…gaṇasÅ«tradhÄra defines â€�°ì³ó±ðá¹aâ€� as the half of a city and the grÄma as the half of a â€�°ì³ó±ðá¹aâ€�. According to Monier Williams °ì³ó±ðá¹a means a village, residence of peasants and farmers, small town (half of a pura).

Ancient India enjoyed religious freedom and encourages the path of Dharma, a concept common to Buddhism, Hinduism, and Jainism.
