General definition (in Hinduism)
Source: archive.org: Vedic index of Names and SubjectsBekurā (बेकुरा) occurs in the Pañcaviṃśa Brāhmaṇa, where it may mean “voice” or “sound”, the sense assigned to the word in the Naighaṇṭuka. It is, however, possibly, like Bakura, the name of a musical instrument. In the Taittirīya and the Kāṭhaka Saṃhitās the words Bekuri and Vekuri occur as epithets of Apsarases, or celestial nymphs, meaning, perhaps, “melodious”; in the Vājasaneyi Saṃhitā and the Śatapatha Brāhmaṇa the variations Bhakuri and Bhākuri are found.

[Sanskrit to German]
Sanskrit, also spelled संस्कृतम् (saṃskṛtam), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
