Source: Cologne Digital Sanskrit Dictionaries: Edgerton Buddhist Hybrid Sanskrit DictionaryPalīkṛta (पलीकृत).—(?) , in Avadāna-śataka ii.136.10 (verse) ādīptaṃ kānanaṃ sarvaṃ parvatā pi °kṛtā, perhaps even the mountains are made into straws (pala, Sanskrit Lex., straw). Speyer, a-glowing, with little if any support, and evidently thinking the word must have a meaning similar to ādīptaṃ; but this is quite unnecessary; two entirely separate situations are referred to, related only in that they are things hard to conceive as accomplished. Speyer cites Tibetan as ser bo, which he identifies with ser po, yellow; this, even if justified, does not give the meaning he assumes.
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.
