From *beeja* (seed) + *avyaya* (imperishable); "The Imperishable Seed of All Creation" - the eternal seed that never exhausts itself no matter how many universes it produces; the inexhaustible source-point of all existence.
Mythology / Philosophy / Spiritual:
** Detailed Meaning & Explanation 'Beeja' means seed, the original cause, the source. 'Avyaya' means imperishable, inexhaustible, undying. Vishnu is Beejamavyayam — the imperishable seed from which all of existence sprouts. Unlike a physical seed that perishes in the act of germinating, Vishnu's creative power is inexhaustible — He is the eternal, inexhaustible source that gives rise to infinite universes without Himself being diminished. ** Mythological Significance The Puranas describe how at the beginning of each Kalpa (cosmic cycle), Vishnu breathes out the seed of creation — the Hiranyagarbha (golden embryo) — from which Brahma emerges to begin the work of manifesting the universe. Vishnu Himself remains unchanged, undiminished. This is like the image of a candle lighting a thousand other candles — it loses nothing of its own flame. Vishnu's creative Beeja is thus Avyaya — imperishable even through unlimited acts of creation. ** Spiritual & Vedantic Meaning The Bhagavad Gita (7.10) states: 'BIjam mam sarva-bhutanam — I am the seed of all beings.' In Vedic symbolism, the seed (beeja) of a mantra is its essential, concentrated sound-power — the monosyllable that contains the entire mantra's energy. The Vishnu-beeja mantra ('Om Namo Narayanaya') is the eternal, imperishable sound-seed of all creation. Planting this beeja in the heart through regular chanting grows the tree of devotion, knowledge, and liberation. References: Bhagavad Gita
