General definition (in Jainism)

Source: archive.org: Trisastisalakapurusacaritra

Adīpta (अदीप्त) refers to one who is “unagitated”, according to chapter 3.7 [suvidhinātha-caritra] of Hemacandra’s 11th century Triṣaṣṭiśalākāpuruṣacaritra: an ancient Sanskrit epic poem narrating the history and legends of sixty-three illustrious persons in Jainism.

Accordingly, as Śakra bowed and praised Lord Suvidhinātha: “[...] If you are merciful, why did you suppress love? If you are devoid of fear, why do you fear existence? If you are devoted to indifference, why are you beneficent to all? If you are unagitated (adīpta), why do you have a blazing halo? If you are tranquil by nature, then why have you practiced penance for a long time? [...]”

context information

Jainism is an Indian religion of Dharma whose doctrine revolves around harmlessness (ahimsa) towards every living being. The two major branches (Digambara and Svetambara) of Jainism stimulate self-control (or, shramana, ‘self-reliance’) and spiritual development through a path of peace for the soul to progess to the ultimate goal.
