In Hinduism
Vaishnavism (Vaishava dharma)
Source: Scribd: Sri Brihad BhagavatamritaHāhārava (हाहारव) refers to “cries of lamentation” according to the Śrī Bṛhad-bhāgavatāmṛta 2.5.242-243.—Accordingly, “there in Gokula the pure devotees always feel humility and pure love for the Lord. In that mood, they see the forests, rivers, and hills as if an empty wilderness. Those devotees, their mouths filled with cries of lamentation (hāhārava), their hearts burning in absolute grief, are always searching for their beloved”.
Vaishnava (वैष्णव, vaiṣṇava) or vaishnavism (vaiṣṇavism) represents a tradition of Hinduism worshipping Vishnu as the supreme Lord. Similar to the Shaktism and Shaivism traditions, Vaishnavism also developed as an individual movement, famous for its exposition of the dashavatara (‘ten avatars of Vishnu’).
In Buddhism
Tibetan Buddhism (Vajrayana or tantric Buddhism)

Accordingly, the jñānacakra refers to one of the three divisions of the saṃbhoga-puṭa (‘enjoyment layer’), situated in the Herukamaṇḍala. Hāhārava is associated with the tree (vṛkṣa) named Kuṇḍala and with the direction-guardian (dikpāla) named Ravitana.

Their primary canon of literature is divided in two broad categories: The Kangyur, which consists of Buddha’s words, and the Tengyur, which includes commentaries from various sources. Esotericism and tantra techniques (vajrayāna) are collected indepently.
