Source: Cologne Digital Sanskrit Dictionaries: Edgerton Buddhist Hybrid Sanskrit DictionaryDhūmagāra (धूमगार).—m. (acc. pl. °rān; so text with corr. for first hand ms. dhūpa-rāgān), some kind of torture in hell: Śikṣāsamuccaya 80.11 (verse), see s.v. kabhalli-; Bendall and Rouse suffocation; Tibetan cited as du bas bdug, fumigation by smoke. Possibly swallowing smoke? (but I find no noun gāra with this meaning); or houses of smoke? (gāra is used in AMg. for agāra, house; and here dhūmag° might be m.c. for dhūmāg°).
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.
