Arciṣmatībhūmi (अर्चिष्मतीभूमि) refers to the “radiance level”, according to the 10th-century Ḍākārṇava-tantra: one of the last Tibetan Tantric scriptures belonging to the Buddhist Saṃvara tradition consisting of 51 chapters.—Accordingly, [while describing the Space Circle (ākāśacakra)]: “Now, the Space Circle outside [this] is like a dark blue lotus [in color]. Sky-going Yoginīs are in the middles of the thirty-six spokes [of the circle], as follows—[...] [They] dwell in the upakṣetra (“near to the field”) [holy sites], are [inhabitants of] the third continent, and are excellent. Residing in this continent, they belong to the class of sky-going females. It is the Radiance Level (arciṣmatībhūmi) [bhūmi arciṣmatī sā tu]. [All twelve levels are] connected with their respective [classes of holy] sites such as the pīṭha.  [...]”.
