From Sanskrit आस्तिक (āstika, “orthodox, believing, pious, faithful”), from अस्ति (asti, “to be, exist”) + -क (-ka).
astika (uncountable)
The definition of astika is not universally agreed upon. A prime example is Buddhism; many consider it to be nastika since it denies the authority of the Vedas and the Hindu priesthood, while other schools go as far as to consider Gautama Buddha as an avatar of the god Vishnu.
