Mythology / Philosophy / Spiritual:
**Upaniṣadic basis
The Śvetāśvatara Upaniṣad (6.19): ‘"Niṣkalaṃ niṣkriyaṃ śāntaṃ niravadyaṃ nirañjanam / amṛtasya paraṃ setuṃ dagdhendhanam ivānalam"‘ — "Without parts, without action, tranquil, blameless (‘niravadyam’), without blemish (‘nirañjanam’) — the supreme bridge to immortality, like fire without fuel." The ‘niravadya-nirañjana’ of this Upaniṣadic verse is precisely Viṣṇu as Anaghaḥ. **Devotional significance
Anaghaḥ is the purifier of sinners — and He can purify because He Himself is completely pure. The Bhāgavata Purāṇa (6.2) — the story of Ajāmila — is the supreme illustration: even a man of terrible sins, by accidentally calling the name of Viṣṇu (he called his son "Nārāyaṇa"), was liberated. The reason? Viṣṇu as Anaghaḥ is so utterly free from sin that even accidental contact with His name dissolves karmic impurity. Darkness cannot touch the sun; sin cannot touch Anaghaḥ.
