Source: SOAS University of London: Protective Rites in the Netra TantraVīravīreśī (वीरवीरेशी) refers to “one who commands heroes”, according to the Svacchanda-tantra.—Accordingly, [verse 4.13-16, while describing auspicious dreams]—“After [the dreamer] has seen these [images listed above], he is successful. Likewise, [success comes to those who] obtain the Earth and a [battle] wound. Victory in battle and crossing the battle field, which is an ocean of blood and blazes like a place of the departed [are auspicious]. [Someone who] commands heroes (vīravīreśī) and persons who rule [with] victory [are fortunate signs]. [...]”.
