anabhiṣaṅga

 The Sanskrit term "anabhiṣaṅga" in Devanagari script is written as: अनभिषङ्ग


Anabhiṣaṅga refers to "non-attachment" or the absence of 
clinging, describing a state in which the mind is free from 
binding attachments or fetters.

Etymology: 

The Sanskrit/Pali term anabhiṣaṅga can be broken 
down as follows:

  • An-: a negation prefix meaning "non-" or "without"
  • Abhiṣaṅga: attachment, clinging, or being bound to something

Thus, anabhiṣaṅga literally means "not attached" or "free from clinging."


Related Concepts:

  • Upādāna (clinging or grasping), which anabhiṣaṅga opposes.
  • States like upekkhā (equanimity) or vairāgya (dispassion) 
  • in Hindu philosophy are closely aligned with the meaning 
  • of anabhiṣaṅga.

In essence, anabhiṣaṅga is the quality of being unbound, unattached, 
and free from mental fetters, serving as a key milestone on the 
path to liberation.
