Source: SOAS University of London: Protective Rites in the Netra TantraFicus glomerata (in Sanskrit: Uḍumbara) represents one of the four types of Kṣīravṛkṣa (“milk-tree”), according to the Netratantra of Kṣemarāja: a Śaiva text from the 9th century in which Śiva (Bhairava) teaches Pārvatī topics such as metaphysics, cosmology, and soteriology.—[Cf. verse 6.9-15ab]—The mṛtyuvañcana rite begins with a preparatory fire oblation. It consists of standard ritual offerings such as honey, milk, and ghee. The fire is fueled by the wood of milk trees (kṣīravṛkṣa). Milk trees come in four types [e.g., Uḍumbara (Ficus glomerata), ...]. All have white sap. They are used in rites of pacification and prosperity.
