Spelling confusion
SahasRa[6] is the correct prefix that means "a thousand", not SahasTRa. However, it is invariably misspelled as sahasTRadhara (even on traffic signs in Dehradun). Notice how the same prefix is spelled when referring to the crown chakra: "Sahasrara Chakra" or when it occurs in family names (example: Sahasrabuddhe[7]) without a T. Also see Sahasralinga. The confusion arises because "sa" (स) merges with "ra" (र) in (स्र) which looks like "tra" (त्र).
