English Meaning
Meaning:
Om Bhartre Namah।
Simple Meaning:
From *bhri* (to bear, to maintain, to support); "The Sustainer and Supporter of All" — He Who carries the entire weight of creation, maintaining every being in existence moment by moment.
Mythology / Philosophy / Spiritual:
**Three senses
(1) ‘Bhartā’ as supporter — Viṣṇu bears the entire cosmos, as declared in the Gītā (15.13): "Entering the earth, I sustain all beings by My energy." (2) ‘Bhartā’ as husband — Viṣṇu is the cosmic husband (‘pati’) of all souls, who are conceived in the Vaiṣṇava bhakti tradition as feminine (‘jīva’) in relation to the masculine Lord (‘Īśvara’). (3) ‘Bhartā’ as lord/master — the one who holds sovereignty over all. The Bhāgavata Purāṇa's ‘gopī-bhāva’ tradition elevates the husband metaphor to its supreme devotional height: the soul's relationship with the Lord is the most intimate possible — that of the beloved to her Lord.
