Mythology / Philosophy / Spiritual:
** Detailed Meaning & Explanation 'Purusha' is one of the most majestic names in all of Sanskrit — derived from 'Pura' (city, body) + 'Sha' (one who dwells in), or from 'Pur' (to fill) — He who fills all. Vishnu is Purushah — the Cosmic Person, the indwelling Self of all bodies, the one who fills the universe, and simultaneously the transcendent Absolute Person. He is both the immanent Atman in every heart and the transcendent Brahman beyond all forms. ** Mythological Significance The Purusha Sukta of the Rig Veda (10.90) is the supreme mythological-cosmological text about Vishnu as Purusha. The Cosmic Purusha has a thousand heads, a thousand eyes, and a thousand feet — encompassing all of existence and extending ten fingers beyond it. From this Purusha, all creation was born: from His mind came the Moon, from His eye came the Sun, from His breath came the wind, from His navel came the middle space — the entire cosmos emerged from His sacrifice. ** Spiritual & Vedantic Meaning The Bhagavad Gita (Chapter 15) — called Purushottama Yoga — distinguishes between the Kshara Purusha (perishable, the world), the Akshara Purusha (imperishable, the Atman), and the Purushottama (Supreme Person, Vishnu) who transcends both. Vishnu as Purushah is simultaneously the Atman in every body and the transcendent Brahman. This is the non-dual vision of Vishnu that dissolves the apparent boundary between the individual soul and the Supreme.
