Sanskrit dictionary
Source: Cologne Digital Sanskrit Dictionaries: Edgerton Buddhist Hybrid Sanskrit DictionaryHeluka (हेलुक).—(m. or nt.), a high number: Gaṇḍavyūha 106.3; probably a doublet for the next, for which the same line also has loka (read aloka or āl°), before this, and separated from it only by indriya which no other list contains; this, like heluga in Mahāvyutpatti 7741, is followed by durbuda (Mahāvyutpatti dra- buddha), and then by haruṇa (in both alike).
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.
