Saṃsiktā (संसिक्ता) means “sprinkled” (e.g., sprinkled by a stream of nectar), according to the Manthānabhairavatantra, a vast sprawling work that belongs to a corpus of Tantric texts concerned with the worship of the goddess Kubjikā.—Accordingly, “O you who reside at the End of the Eighteen! (You are) also beyond the state of the Transmental. You are Śāmbhavī who awakens Śambhu. [...] (At the same time) you are on the plane of the current of the state beyond the Transmental. (Your) nature is subtle; your form is that of the beautiful and radiant energy which is the Half Moon. Encompassed by the Triangle, you are in the centre. Born from the limbs of the three lines (of the Triangle), you are completely full and reside in the sacred seat in the centre. O Kubjī, you are Mālinī who awakens (Bhairava) the Gander (haṃsa). (When you are) in the Cavity (in the centre), you are sprinkled inwardly by the stream of nectar of the Śiva principle [i.e., śivatattva-pīyūṣadhārā-anta-saṃsiktā]”

Saṃsikta (संसिक्त) refers to “pervading (souls)” [?], according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.3.29 (“Śivā-Śiva dialogue”).—Accordingly, as Śiva said to Pārvatī: “[...] O gentle lady, I, the independent, have been made subservient by you. You alone are the great illusory power, the Primordial nature that creates. This entire universe has been made of illusion; it is held by the supreme soul with His great intellect. It is united and enveloped by the Gaṇas of the nature of pervading souls (saṃsikta—saṃsiktamātmani gaṇaḥ) of meritorious deeds, akin to the nature of supreme soul. [...]”.

Saṃsikta (संसिक्त) refers to “soaking (ingredients) in the blood of animals”, according to the Vṛkṣāyurveda by Sūrapāla (1000 CE): an encyclopedic work dealing with the study of trees and the principles of ancient Indian agriculture.—Accordingly: “A healthy seed of a properly ripened Mangifera indica should be soaked in the blood (asra-saṃsikta) of a tortoise and a hare [kūrmaśaśāsrasaṃsiktaṃ] and then should be dried in the direct heat of the sun. After a month it should be planted in a pit, previously prepared as per the method described before. Thereafter it should be showered with the milk of a she-goat. Then it blossoms into a tree with thousands of branches and produces lovely flowers and fruits round the year. This is no wonder”.
