Buddhist Usage
I first encountered this term in Tibetan Buddhist literature, though I'm guessing it was appropriated by Vajrayana Buddhist traditions in India from earlier forms. I'll add this to my to-do list to extend this article in that direction as well, unless others would like to make an attempt first. I would love to see the full breadth of the term included. - Owlmonkey (talk) 02:52, 4 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Like so many other adapted practices and nomenclature, having read quite a bit of Buddhist literature myself, your assumption is most likely a safe bet. However; do not also forget to mention Kabīr, the Srī Gurū Granth Sāhib, and many other sources of दोहा. Also, I am out of my depth on the finer points here, but I wonder if a very brief comparison to another form of prominent South Asian couplet, the ghazal (غزل), would be appropriate here as well.
