My translation is not what one would consider academic but its based on my findings. You will not find this explanation expressed directly in any book. I gathered this from extensive study of languages, spiritual enlightenment, and realizing that the same words span across many languages... The various definitions of a partial word in each language is actually the piece of whole to a larger meaning...Sherika is connected to Sherita... Sher can mean dear, loved one, but more precisely a female lover or female ruler... Women are associated with the cat / panther goddesses of the world..
Sher means lion, tiger, large cat and Rika / Rita means rule, order, law, wheel, flower, energy flow, wind direction, cause and effect >>>>> Chevron Vector V arrows...So Sherika / Sherita would mean Lion Rule or Tiger Rule or Panther Law or Women Rule or Woman Wheel or Panther Wheel... Panther Law is Women Rule... The ancient world understood that feminine energy of the feline panther spirit is what is ruling over the planet and even men. Men do not rule this world. The Female Panther energy does and the Hindu call her Durga / Durgha (tiger lion goddess) and the Egyptians call her Sekhmet / Sekmet (lion panther goddess). She is also the goddess of sex, desire, and war called Ishtar Inanna, Venus, as well as the Goddess Aphrodite... These goddesses rule over the sexual urges of men and inspire men to desire women which ultimately give women power and dominance over men... For the weakness of every man is ultimately a woman, his wife, his girlfriend, his mother.https://www.britannica.com/topic/rita-Hinduism
