In Buddhism
Tibetan Buddhism (Vajrayana or tantric Buddhism)
Source: Wisdom Library: Vajrayana碍峁涐梗峁嚹乧腻谤测补 or K膩nhapa is the name of a 尘补丑腻蝉颈诲诲丑补, of which eighty-four in total are recognized in Vajray膩na (tantric buddhism). His title is 鈥渢he dark siddha鈥�. He lived somewhere between the 8th and the 12th century AD.
These 尘补丑腻蝉颈诲诲丑补s (e.g., 碍峁涐梗峁嚹乧腻谤测补) are defined according to the Abhayadatta Sri (possibly 础产丑补测腻办补谤补驳耻辫迟补) tradition. Its textual origin traces to the 11th century 肠补迟耻谤腻蝉颈迟颈-蝉颈诲诲丑补-辫谤补惫峁泃迟颈, or 鈥渢he lives of the eighty-four siddhas鈥�, of which only Tibetan translations remains. 碍峁涐梗峁嚹乧腻谤测补 (and other Mah膩siddhas) are the ancient propounders of the textual tradition of tantric or Vajrayana Buddhism.
Tibetan Buddhism includes schools such as Nyingma, Kadampa, Kagyu and Gelug. Their primary canon of literature is divided in two broad categories: The Kangyur, which consists of Buddha鈥檚 words, and the Tengyur, which includes commentaries from various sources. Esotericism and tantra techniques (惫补箩谤补测腻苍补) are collected indepently.

They are often associated with teachings belonging to Hinduism, Buddhism, Ajivikism and Jainism such as the Nath Tradition.
The history of India traces the identification of countries, villages, towns and other regions of India, as well as mythology, zoology, royal dynasties, rulers, tribes, local festivities and traditions and regional languages. Ancient India enjoyed religious freedom and encourages the path of Dharma, a concept common to Buddhism, Hinduism, and Jainism.
