Simple Meaning:
From bha (to shine); "The Radiant One, the Sun" - He is the light behind all lights, the brilliance of the cosmic sun.
Mythology / Philosophy / Spiritual:
**Reference
Viṣṇu is called Bhānu - the source-light from which sun derives its brilliance. **Interpretation
Bhānu means light, sun, ray, brilliance. Viṣṇu is the primordial light. **Mythological Story
The Puruṣa Sūkta states: "candrāmā manaso jātaś cakṣoḥ sūryo ajāyata" (from His mind the moon was born; from His eyes the sun emerged). The physical sun (sūrya) is the Bhānu's eye! When we see sunlight, we're seeing the Bhānu's vision manifested. When plants photosynthesize, they're capturing the Bhānu's energy. When solar panels generate electricity, they're harnessing the Bhānu's power. But deeper than physical sun: the Bhānu is consciousness-light - the awareness illuminating all experience. Physical sun lights physical world; the Bhānu lights both physical and mental worlds. When the Gītā describes jñāna-dīpa (lamp of knowledge), it's metaphor - but the Bhānu is the reality behind the metaphor. For devotees, recognizing sun as the Bhānu's manifestation transforms simple sunrise into sacred moment. The practice: during sunrise, meditate "This physical light emerging is the Bhānu's smallest manifestation. The real Bhānu illuminates my consciousness right now." Let physical sunrise remind you of the inner Bhānu always shining.
