Om Parardhaye Namah।

Mythology / Philosophy / Spiritual:
** Detailed Meaning & Explanation 'Para' (supreme, beyond) + 'Riddhi' (prosperity, abundance, excellence, auspiciousness). Vishnu is Pararddhih — He who possesses the absolutely highest abundance of all divine qualities. His knowledge, bliss, power, beauty, and auspiciousness are all at their maximum, supreme level — beyond any conceivable limit. He is the apex of all excellence. ** Mythological Significance In the Vishnu Purana's description of Vaikuntha, the abode of Vishnu is described as Parardha — beyond measure, beyond all else, filled with supreme effulgence. Everything in Vaikuntham is of the highest quality — the trees, the rivers, the light — because Vishnu as Pararddhih pervades every atom of His abode with His supreme excellence. Even the great sage Narada, upon visiting Vaikuntham, was struck speechless by its para-riddhi (supreme abundance). ** Spiritual & Vedantic Meaning The Upanishads speak of Brahman as Bhuma — the All-Abundant, the Infinitely Full. 'Yatra naanyat pashyati — where one sees nothing other than Brahman — sa Bhuma' (Chandogya Upanishad). Vishnu as Pararddhih is this Bhuma — supreme abundance not of material goods but of Sat-chit-ananda (Being-Consciousness-Bliss) in its most perfect, unlimited form. Spiritual practice is the journey from the apparent poverty of ego-consciousness toward the Pararddhih of Vishnu-consciousness.
