(cakrika, cakrika)
cakrika¦, adj., or subst. m., (1) some sort of prefessional entertainer, perh. a juggler who does tricks with wheels or discs (cf. BR s.v. cakrin, 7; a Skt. Lex. possibly gives this mg., but it is uncertain): Mv iii.113.2 (mss. here corrupt); 442.8; (2) (a) tricky, crafty (person): °kaḥ Mvy 7326; this seems to be the mg. indicated by Tib. (five renderings), Chin., and Jap., and supported by the ad- joining words (jihma, kuṭila, Mvy 7324--5); cf. Skt. (Rājat.) cakrikā, Ränke (BR); (3) see s.v. cākrika.
