Śrutisīmantasindūrīkṛtapādābjadhūlikā (श्रुतिसीमन्तसिन्दूरीकृतपादाब्जधूलिका, IAST: Śrutisīmantasindūrīkṛtapādābjadhūlikā) is a Sanskrit-origin Hindu girl-name meaning “She whose lotus-foot dust adorns the Vedas' parting as vermilion”. A supremely poetic compound: the dust of Lalitā's lotus feet (pādābja-dhūlikā) is so sacred that it reddens the parting in the hair of the Śrutis (the Vedas personified as women), as though it were bridal sindūra.
Meaning, etymology & significance
Śruti (the Vedas), sīmanta (the parting of the hair, the auspicious mark of a married woman), sindūrīkṛta (made vermilion-red), pādābja (lotus feet), and dhūlikā (the dust or pollen) together form a deeply devotional image. The Vedas themselves are envisioned as devoted women who wear the dust of Lalitā's feet in their hair-parting as the most sacred adornment. This imagery places her above all Vedic knowledge—she is its very source and crown.
This is one of the most celebrated and poetic epithets in the Lalitā Sahasranāma, evoking her supreme sovereignty over revelation itself; due to its length it is never used as a standalone given name. A devotee may meditate on the shorter form Dhūlikā or Pādābjadhūlikā as a devotional given name.

Śrutisīmantasindūrīkṛtapādābjadhūlikā appears in the Lalitha Sahasranama, among the sacred names of Lalitha.
