Dear Sebas, wondering were you got the Sanskrit from?

Stefan and me think we should start adopting the academic practice of putting a * in front of a reconstructed Sanskrit word which is not attested in any sources. It could be that Dakini Karmendrani is also found in some of the sarma tantras, but I doubt it, and so it seems highly unlikely that the name is attested since I'm not aware of any surviving Sanskrit manuscripts of Nyingma tantras.
