The Purana (पुराण, purāṇas) refers to Sanskrit literature preserving ancient India’s vast cultural history, including historical legends, religious ceremonies, various arts and sciences. The eighteen mahapuranas total over 400,000 shlokas (metrical couplets) and date to at least several centuries BCE.

Source: Wisdom Library: Nāṭya-śāstraVāsita (वासित) is another name (synonym) of bhāva, referring to “psychological states” (eg. permanent, involuntary, transitory), according to the Nāṭyaśāstra chapter 7.
Natyashastra (नाट्यशास्त्र, nāṭyaśāstra) refers to both the ancient Indian tradition (shastra) of performing arts, (natya—theatrics, drama, dance, music), as well as the name of a Sanskrit work dealing with these subjects. It also teaches the rules for composing Dramatic plays (nataka), construction and performance of Theater, and Poetic works (kavya).
Kavya (poetry)
Source: archive.org: Naisadhacarita of SriharsaVāsita (वासित) refers to “perfumed”, and is mentioned in the Naiṣadha-carita 8.77.—(“candanavāsitā dik”); 21.119 (“purified”, “edified”—“saṃprajñātavāsitatamaḥ”). Cāṇḍūpaṇḍita says “saṃskṛtatamaḥ”. Nārāyaṇa says “atitarāṃ saṃbhāvitamanāḥ”.
Kavya (काव्य, kavya) refers to Sanskrit poetry, a popular ancient Indian tradition of literature. There have been many Sanskrit poets over the ages, hailing from ancient India and beyond. This topic includes mahakavya, or ‘epic poetry’ and natya, or ‘dramatic poetry’.
In Buddhism
Tibetan Buddhism (Vajrayana or tantric Buddhism)
Source: archive.org: The Indian Buddhist IconographyVaśitā (वशिता) refers to a group of twelve deities, commonly depicted in Buddhist Iconography, and mentioned in the 11th-century Niṣpannayogāvalī of Mahāpaṇḍita Abhayākara.—The Vaśitās according to Buddhism, are the controls or disciplines which lead to the spiritual regeneration of its followers. The Vajrayānists recognized twelve Vaśitās, each with a special name and conceived them in the form of deities with heads, arms, weapons and special symbols. These Vaśitās are collectively taken to be the spiritual daughters of the Dhyāni Buddha Amitābha.
The description of the Vaśitā goddesses is not found in the existing original literature and thus it is of unusual interest. Their iconographic interest becomes all the more attractive since in China there are statuettes in metal which correctly represent the Vaśitā goddesses. Statues of these are not found anywhere in India, but their statuettes in the Chinese collection of Buddhist deities at Peiping are illustrated in the Two Lamaistic Pantheons of W. E. Clark.
Source: eScholarship: The Development of Esoteric Buddhist Scholasticism in Early Medieval JapanVaśitā (वशिता) refers to “control (over all dharmas)”, according to the Mahāvairocana-sūtra (Cf. Taishō 18.14c15-19).—Accordingly, “Then the World-honored One Śākyamuni entered the samādhi ‘Place of Jewels’ and uttered his own heart[-mantra] and the mantras of his attendants: ‘namaḥ samantabuddhānāṃ, sarva kleśaniṣūdana sarvadharma vaśitāprāpta gaganasamāsama svāhā’—(Homage to all Buddhas! O you who destroy all defilements! you who have won control [i.e., vaśitā-prāpta] over all dharmas! you who are equal to the sky and unequaled! svāhā!)”—(Cf. Giebel 2005, 61).
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’s words, and the Tengyur, which includes commentaries from various sources. Esotericism and tantra techniques (vajrayāna) are collected indepently.
Mahayana (major branch of Buddhism)
Source: Wisdom Library: Maha Prajnaparamita SastraVaśita (वशित) refers to “(obtaining) mastery (over all the dhyānas of the heretics)”, according to Mahāprajñāpāramitāśāstra (chapter 8).—Accordingly, “[Question: How does the Bodhisattva fulfill the virtue of meditation (dhyānapāramitā)?]—[Answer]—When he obtains mastery (vaśita) over all the dhyānas of the heretics (tīrthika). Thus king Śaṅkhācārya, seated in meditation, had no in- (āna) or out- (apāna) breath. A bird came and laid her eggs in his top-knot which was in the form of a conch (śaṅkhaśikhā); the Bodhisattva remained motionless (acala) until the fledglings flew away”.
Source: academia.edu: A Study and Translation of the GaganagañjaparipṛcchāVaśitā (वशिता) refers to “mastery (of the arising of birth and death)”, according to the Gaganagañjaparipṛcchā: the eighth chapter of the Mahāsaṃnipāta (a collection of Mahāyāna Buddhist Sūtras).—Accordingly, “[...] Then, the bodhisatva, the great being, Gaganagañja addressed himself to the Lord: [...] (27) [How do the Bodhisattvas] purify their own realm (svaviṣaya) after having obtained the realm of the Buddha? (28) [How do the Bodhisattvas] obtain memory without forgetfulness? (29) [How are the Bodhisattvas] always supported by the presence of the Buddha and thus having unhindered eloquence? (30) [How do the Bodhisattvas] attain the mastery (vaśitā-prāpta) of the arising of birth and death? [...]’”.
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 sūtras of which some of the earliest are the various Prajñāpāramitā sūtras.
