Pradakṣiṇāvartaikaroma (प्रदक्षिणावर्तैकरोम) or Pradakṣiṇāvartaikaromatā refers to “each hair arises singly and turns to the right” and represents the sixteenth of the “thirty-two marks of a great man” (lakṣaṇa) as defined in the Dharma-saṃgraha (section 83). The Dharma-samgraha (Dharmasangraha) is an extensive glossary of Buddhist technical terms in Sanskrit (e.g., pradakṣiṇāvartaika-roma). The work is attributed to Nagarguna who lived around the 2nd century A.D.
