ॐ धृतात्मने नमः।
विवेचन:
जो स्वतःच्या स्वरूपात स्थिर राहतो आणि विकारांच्या आधीन होत नाही, तो धृतात्मा. संसारातील बदलांचा त्याच्या मूलस्वरूपावर परिणाम होत नाही. अढळ आत्मस्थिती आणि अंतर्बल यांचे हे श्रेष्ठ नाव आहे.

धैर्यशील, स्थिर मनाचा, संयमी.
English Meaning
Meaning:
Om Dhritatmane Namah।
Simple Meaning:
From *dhrita* (held, sustained) + *atma* (self); "He Whose Self Is Perfectly Steady and Sustained" — eternally self-composed, His inner nature never wavers, trembles, or loses its composure.
Mythology / Philosophy / Spiritual:
**Significance
‘Dhṛta’ (held, sustained, firm) + ‘ātmā’ (Self) = He who holds His own Self in perfect, immovable stability. Unlike bound beings whose sense of self is fragile, dependent on external circumstances, easily disturbed by pleasure or pain — Viṣṇu's Self is eternally, immovably ‘dhṛta’ (held firm). This name is the supreme expression of divine ‘sthitatā’ (steadiness) — the quality that the Bhagavad Gītā's 2nd chapter describes as characteristic of the ‘sthita-prajña’ (one of steady wisdom). Viṣṇu is the original, absolute Sthita-Prajña — His wisdom, His Self, is eternally and perfectly firm.
