'Vrk' is a word from the language of Sanskrit whose meaning is to 'take' to 'seize' and this expands to become 'vrka' whose primal meaning is that which 'tears' and whose secondary meanings are wolf, thunderbolt, plough, hyena, jackal and warrior, all of which are known to 'rip' to 'tear'.

We find many words throughout the Indo/european languages whose meanings can only be explained through the language of Sanskrit, words such as 'mother' and 'father' and here we find 'vrka' a word from the language of Sanskrit whose meaning is 'tearer' and whose meaning is only found within Sanskrit as observed by Edwin Francis Bryant in his book  'The Indo  -  Aryan Controversy'.

 

“Such descriptive formations are common in Indo/European, but Sanskrit is often the only Indo/european language in which the descriptive origin of words is still visible, which may indicate its high age. In all other Indo/European languages “wolf” is exclusively the name of this animal, in Sanskrit 'vrka' is treated as part of a continuum with the verb 'vrk' meaning to 'tear'."

"For a Vedic rishi 'vrka' meant 'tearer' you can see the word itself gives the vibration 'vrik' and 'vrika' as in 'tearing' so 'vrika' meant 'tearer' and therefore amongst other applications of the sense it means 'wolf'." Sri Aurobindo.

 

"You could apply 'vrka' to a human being if he is a 'tearer' it is not based on analogy, similie or metaphors, it is the reality and this is the problem when the modern mind approaches the Sanskrit language it sees it as symbols, similies, metaphors, they are not, they are the thing itself described." Sri Aurobindo.

 

“Every one of its vowels and consonants has a particular and inalienable force which exists by the nature of things and not by development or human choice… the basis of Sanskrit is universal and eternal.”  Sri Aurobindo.
