I think the word literally means "denier", the opposite of aastika which means

Basically that is it. (IMHO) Naastika the word derived from na+astha+ik,
literally meaning someone who has no "faith"(upon something, or someone).
And same for the opposite, Aastika .. where the negative-"shandhi-syllable"(na)
is absent.
