muṣṭika¦, also mauṣṭika, moṭṭ(h)ika (cf. Pali muṭ- ṭhika, app. only boxer, prize-fighter, assoc. with malla; from Skt. muṣṭi; AMg. muṭṭhiya, id.; Skt. muṣṭika, n. of a roaming despised caste who guard corpses and eat dog-flesh, acc. to Rām. comm. = ḍomba; Skt. Lex. also goldsmith), (1) perhaps = Skt. muṣṭika, n. of a gypsy- like low caste: SP 276.5 (prose) na caṇḍālān na mauṣṭikān na saukarikān…(considerably later in the list, na mallān nānyāni pareṣāṃ ratikrīḍāsthānāni tāni) nopasaṃkrā- mati; SP 279.2 (vs), cited Śikṣ 48.2, (kuryāt tehi na saṃsta- vam) caṇḍālamuṣṭikaiḥ śauṇḍais (so also Śikṣ, but WT cite Ḱ cāpi for śau°, and so Tib., gdol ba daṅ ni zol ba for entire pāda) tīrthikaiś…; but both these may be otherwise interpreted; Tib. for both zol ba, trickster; the Pali mg. boxer is also not out of the question (note malla in 276.6, with reference to entertainers; does Tib. zol ba mean here juggler, sleight-of-hand performer? see 2); (2) (cf. Tib. on SP under 1) mauṣṭikaḥ Mvy 3808, followed by vidūṣakaḥ, buffoon; acc. to Tib. zol pa, trickster (possibly in the sense of juggler); (3) possibly (= Pali muṭṭhika) boxer, fist-fighter: Mvy 7072 muṣṭikāḥ, v.l. mauṣṭikāḥ (Mironov, and pw 7.368, musuntikā, clearly corrupt) = Tib. khu tshur, fist (Skt. muṣṭi); Chin. also fist; Jap. fist, also trickster, low-class person (prob. based on Tib. on 3808); (4) (as in Skt.

The word mau- ṣṭika occurs, without preserved context, in Kalpanā- maṇḍitikā, see Lüders’ discussion, Kl. Skt. Texte 2, 44.
