Resurrection

CRITICAL: NEVER पुनर्जन्म. This is not a vague popular idea in Sanskrit — it is the precise technical mechanism of transmigration developed across multiple systematized darśanas: Sāṃkhya-Yoga’s theory of karmāśaya/vāsanā (latent karmic impressions carried across lives) and Vedānta’s liṅga-śarīra (subtle body) that migrates at death. पुनरुत्थानम् (‘rising again’) is a doctrinally neutral compound describing a single bodily event, not a mechanism of repeated embodiment, and must always carry a note distinguishing it from this fully theorized transmigration doctrine.
