Vyakarana (व्याकरण, vyākaraṇa) refers to Sanskrit grammar and represents one of the six additional sciences (vedanga) to be studied along with the Vedas. Vyakarana concerns itself with the rules of Sanskrit grammar and linguistic analysis in order to establish the correct context of words and sentences.
Pancaratra (worship of Nārāyaṇa)
Source: archive.org: Catalogue of Pancaratra Agama TextsRāmakṛṣṇa (रामकृष्ण) or Rāmakṛṣṇamantra is the name of a Mantra discussed in the twenty-fourth chapter of the Parāśarasaṃhitā: a Pañcarātra work of some 2000 verses dealing withe the composition and applications of Mantras, the characteristics of devotees (prapanna) and initiation.—Accordingly, in this chapter Bhagavān quotes the Vedic verses that provide the source for such mantras [such as the rāmakṛṣṇa-mantra], [...] (1-17). These Vedic-originated mantras may be used only by Brahmins, not by Śūdras. To uphold this rule, as well as others, is a necessity in order to make one fit for any activity (18-22).
Pancaratra (पाञ्चरात्र, pāñcarātra) represents a tradition of Hinduism where Narayana is revered and worshipped. Closeley related to Vaishnavism, the Pancaratra literature includes various Agamas and tantras incorporating many Vaishnava philosophies.
In Jainism
General definition (in Jainism)
Source: academia.edu: Tessitori Collection IRāmakṛṣṇa (रामकृष्ण) or “Ṛṣi Rāmakṛṣṇa” is the author of the Śāntināthastavana (dealing with various Jinas in Jain literature), which is included in the collection of manuscripts at the ‘Vincenzo Joppi’ library, collected by Luigi Pio Tessitori during his visit to Rajasthan between 1914 and 1919.—The Śāntināthastavana represents a devotional, descriptive and narrative hymn to the sixteenth Jina which was composed in VS 1867 (1810 CE). The author was probably a Sthānakavāsin or a lonkāgaccha monk but no further information could be traced so far. The last line as given in the Koba manuscripts seems to include the name of the place of composition.
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.

Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
