English Meaning
Meaning:
Om Sukhadaya Namah।
Simple Meaning:
From *sukha* (happiness, pleasure, ease) + *da* (giver); "The Bestower of Happiness and Bliss" - all genuine happiness in the universe ultimately flows from Him; He is the supreme giver of all joy.
Mythology / Philosophy / Spiritual:
**Explanation
*Sukha* = happiness/joy and *da* = giver. Vishnu is the ultimate giver of *sukha* — and specifically of the highest, most lasting happiness. He gives not merely the temporary pleasures of the world but the *Brahmananda* — the bliss of divine realization that is completely satisfying and eternally sustaining. **Spiritual Interpretation
The Bhagavad Gita (5.21-22) distinguishes between external pleasures (*vishaya-sukha*) which are "wombs of suffering" and the internal *Brahma-sukha* — the happiness born of the purified self in communion with Vishnu. Vishnu as Sukhada gives this supreme internal *sukha* that the outer world can neither provide nor take away. The Taittiriya Upanishad's vision of Brahma-Ananda — described in an ascending scale a hundred times greater than the next lower stage — culminates in *Brahmananda* (the bliss of Brahman/Vishnu). This infinite bliss is what Sukhada freely gives to those who turn to Him. **Puranic Reference
The Bhagavata Purana narrates the joy of the Gopis (devotees of Vrindavana) as the supreme example of Vishnu-granted *sukha* — a happiness so profound that they abandoned all external attachments. The sage Shuka, born in a state of perpetual *sukha* from his constant absorption in Vishnu, represents the living embodiment of Sukhada's gift.
