English Meaning
Meaning:
Om Nivrittatmane Namah।
Simple Meaning:
From nivrittaa (turned away, withdrawn) + atma (self); "He Whose Self Is Turned Away from All Worldly Attachments" - perfectly detached, His inner nature is never entangled in or tainted by the world He sustains.
Mythology / Philosophy / Spiritual:
**Meaning<br> "He whose Self is completely withdrawn from the modifications of Prakṛti" — the utterly transcendent, self-contained Self. **Vedantic interpretation<br> While *Āvartanaḥ* (229) expresses the Lord's immanent involvement in cosmic cycles, *Nivṛttātmā* expresses His absolute transcendence. He is never entangled in what He creates. His nature is eternally withdrawn from saṃsāra's flux, resting in pure, self-luminous Awareness. **Philosophical significance<br> This name encapsulates the Upaniṣadic teaching of the Witness-Consciousness (Sākṣī-Caitanya). The Kaṭha Upaniṣad (2.1.1) says: *"Parāñci khāni vyatṛṇat svayambhūḥ"* — The Self-born one pierced outward-facing senses; therefore most beings see only the outer world. But the wise one, turning the gaze inward, beholds the immortal Ātman — which is Nivṛttātmā, the Self that has "returned" from all outwardness. **Bhagavad Gītā connection<br> In Gītā 14.23, the Lord describes the guṇātīta (one who has transcended the three guṇas) as one who "remains like a witness, undisturbed." Viṣṇu Himself is the supreme Guṇātīta — eternally Nivṛttātmā — serving as the ideal and the goal of all sādhanā.
