Kashyapa

Za Budinog učenika, pogledajte Mahākāśyapa.

Prema hinduističkoj mitologiji, Kashyapa [Kašjapa] (Kaśyapa) bio je drevni indijski mudrac, koji je spomenut u mnogim hinduističkim spisima.^[1]^[2]^[3] Njegovo ime na sanskrtu znači „kornjača” te je — prema Michaelu Witzelu — povezano s avestičkom riječju kasiiapa i perzijskom riječju kašaf. Možda je Kašmir dobio ime po Kashyapi.^[4] U starogrčkim tekstovima, Kašmir je poznat kao Kasperia.
