In Hinduism, Chanda is a monster that Chamunda Devi killed. It is also a popular name in the Hindu community. It means "the moon", similar to Chandra.

In Pāli texts, Chanda is a sincere wish, or zeal - a mental factor that does not involve greed (lobha).

"Chandavato kim nāma kammam na sijjhati?"

Who has a serious wish to do, everything is possible.
