The words mentioned here have several meanings with scriptural interpretations. The provided meanings in the English language may not be apt to describe those scriptural meanings.
I want to know the scriptural meanings/interpretations for the words I bolded in the list. Suppose Vritti can be taken as the work/profession done a person daily: like studying for a student. But, I don't know whether it is apt in the context.
What are the scriptural meanings for the bolded forms?
