anātata

  The word "anātata" in Devanagari script is written as अनातत


The Sanskrit term "anātata" means "not stretched" 
or "not strung," indicating a state of being relaxed 
or not tense.

Literal Definition


According to Sanskrit-English dictionaries, anātata is an adjective 
formed from the prefix a- (meaning "not") and the root ātata, which 
relates to being stretched or strung. Thus, it literally signifies 
something that is not stretched, relaxed, or unstrung


Usage in Texts


In classical Sanskrit literature, the term appears in works like the
Yoga Vasistha (Verse 6.25.71), where it is used in a philosophical 
context: prāṇāpānarathārūḍhaṃ prāṇāpānamaanātatam, describing 
the state of prāṇa and apāna energies in yoga practice. Here, 
anātata conveys a sense of balance, steadiness, or unstrained 
movement within the yogic system

Philosophical Implication


While the literal meaning is "not stretched," in yogic and spiritual 
literature, this term can metaphorically imply a state of mental or 
energetic equanimity and freedom from tension, a quality desirable 
in meditation and inner focus 
Wisdom Library
.
In summary, "anātata" combines the ideas of calmness, relaxation, 
and lack of tension, whether physically, mentally, or energetically, 
and is used both in dictionary definitions and in classical Sanskrit
philosophical texts
