English Meaning
Meaning:
Om Amitavikramaya Namah।
Simple Meaning:
From amita (immeasurable, limitless) + vikrama (valor, stride, power); "He of Immeasurable Valor and Power" - the strength behind His divine stride covers the entire universe; His valor is absolutely without limit or measure.
Mythology / Philosophy / Spiritual:
**Reference<br> Trivikrama (three steps) demonstrates His unlimited power. **Interpretation<br> Amita means unlimited, immeasurable; vikrama means power, prowess, stride. Viṣṇu's power cannot be measured or contained. **Mythological Story<br> When Vāmana asked King Bali for three paces of land, Bali's guru Śukrācārya warned: "This is Viṣṇu - amitavikrama (immeasurably powerful). His 'three steps' will cover everything!" But Bali's pride made him grant the boon. Vāmana's first step (vikrama) covered the entire earth - mountains, oceans, continents vanished beneath His foot. Second step covered all celestial realms - planets, stars, heavens. For the third step, there was no space left in the entire universe. The amitavikrama showed that His power transcends all measurement - He could have taken one step and covered everything, but He used three to honor Bali's offer. Modern physics speaks of the universe as approximately 93 billion light-years in observable diameter, but the amitavikrama covered it in two steps! For devotees, this means: no problem is too big for His power. What seems impossible to us is less than one vikrama (stride) for the amitavikrama. We limit ourselves by measuring His power with our limitations.
