English Meaning
Meaning:
Om Pradhanapurusheshvaraya Namah।
Simple Meaning:
From *pradhaana* (primordial matter/prakriti) + *purusha* (the conscious principle) + *ishvara* (lord); "The Lord Over Both Primordial Matter and the Conscious Principle" — the supreme ruler who transcends and governs both the material and the spiritual.
Mythology / Philosophy / Spiritual:
**Philosophical significance<br> This name directly addresses the Sāṃkhya cosmological framework. ‘Pradhāna’ (also called Prakṛti) is the unmanifest matrix of all matter — the primordial nature from which the universe evolves. ‘Puruṣa’ is pure consciousness. In Sāṃkhya, these two are independent and co-eternal. Viṣṇu as Pradhāna-Puruṣeśvaraḥ transcends both — He is not identical with either but is their supreme Lord, the one whose will sets Prakṛti into motion and who presides over all Puruṣas (individual souls). The Bhagavad Gītā (9.10): ‘"Mayādhyakṣeṇa Prakṛtiḥ sūyate sacarācaram"‘ — "Under My supervision, Prakṛti produces the moving and unmoving."
