cArika
-cārika , adj. or subst. m. (= Skt. and Pali -cārin, ifc. ; see also piṇḍa-cārika ), moving; practising : pattracārikā ṛddhyā harita-cārikā bhājana-cārikāś cāgatāḥ Divy 45.17 ; similarly 45.20 ; it seems clear that the reference [Page228-b] is to persons who magically ride or move thru the air on leaves , some sort of plants or trees (harita, cf. Skt. haritaka), and jars (bhājana), cf. 45.27—30 . Acc. to Burnouf, Introd. 261 note 2 , Tib. renders -cārikā(ḥ) by ḥdri ma , which the Dictt. of Tib. do not interpret satisfactorily; I suggest dri bo , magician . Tib. renders harita by śiṅ tshe , apparently some tree or shrub. There is a v.l. -vārika, which pw 7.365 adopts for bhājana-cārika, identifying it with °vārika in Mvy 9069 , which however means something like superintendent of vessels and cannot be intended in the Divy passage. In Śikṣ 332.4 cārika seems to mean practiser, follower ( cf. Skt. and Pali cārin), sc. of a heretical religion.
