tasarikA
tasarikā (from Skt. tasara, shuttle ), in Divy 83.24 (prose), acc. to Index weaving , as operation of the shuttle ; this force of the suffix would seem peculiar, but the context gives little help: (Śacy api …) tasarikāṃ kartum ārabdhā. In the preceding sentence Śakra, in disguise, vastraṃ vāyitum ārabdhaḥ. Perhaps tasarikāṃ kartum, to make the (little) shuttle , means only to operate the shuttle .
