English Meaning
Meaning:
Om Purushottamaya Namah।
Simple Meaning:
From *purusha* (person/being) + *uttama* (highest/supreme); "The Supreme Person, the Highest of All Beings" — beyond both the perishable (*kshara*) and the imperishable (*akshara*), He is the utterly transcendent Purushottama declared in the Bhagavad Gita
Mythology / Philosophy / Spiritual:
**Gītā Chapter 15 — the Puruṣottama Yoga<br> This name is the subject of an entire chapter of the Bhagavad Gītā. ‘"Dvāv imau puruṣau loke kṣaraś cākṣara eva ca / kṣaraḥ sarvāṇi bhūtāni kūṭastho'kṣara ucyate / uttamaḥ puruṣas tv anyaḥ..."‘ (Gītā 15.16–18) — There are two puruṣas in the world: the perishable (all beings) and the imperishable (the unmanifest). But the supreme Puruṣa, Puruṣottama, transcends both. He pervades all three worlds and sustains them as the inexhaustible Lord. This knowledge of the Lord as Puruṣottama is declared by Kṛṣṇa to be the most secret and most liberating wisdom in the Gītā.
