Solution(By Examveda Team)

In ancient scripts, pipilika referred to Ants.
Sant Gyaneshwar (12 - 13th century), who can be credited with inspiring bhakti movement in India, mentioned pipilika-pth. He propounded three ways of spiritual transmission-pipilika (ant), market (monkey) and vihangam (bird).
Saktavedha (penetration of energy) is ant-like. The movement of energy produces a sensation of crawling ants across body.
