Ḍikkārikā (डिक्कारिका) refers to “auspicious damsels”, according to Tantric texts such as the Kubjikāmata-tantra, the earliest popular and most authoritative Tantra of the Kubjikā cult.—Accordingly, as the Goddess (i.e., Kubjikā) said to Kāmeśvarī: “[...] When the Age of Strife (kaliyuga) comes your consort (pati) (will be) Candrānanda. [...]. There will be thirteen daughters endowed with (all good) qualities. Yoginīs born of Yoga, (they will be) your auspicious damsels (ḍikkārikā). In the same way (you will have) thirteen sons and these seven attendants. They will be lamps for the universe and (will fill) the universe with bliss”.

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.
