English Meaning

Mythology / Philosophy / Spiritual:
**Significance
‘Niyama’ means rule, regulation, constraint, and in Patañjali's Yoga Sūtras, it is the second of the eight limbs of yoga — the personal disciplines of purity, contentment, austerity, self-study, and surrender to the Lord. Viṣṇu as Niyamaḥ is the source and embodiment of all cosmic regulation. Every natural law — gravitational, biological, karmic, moral — is a specific expression of Viṣṇu as Niyamaḥ operating in a particular domain. The universe is not random; it is governed by Niyama, and Niyama itself is the Lord.
