Meaning:
Om Nivrittatmane Namah।
Simple Meaning:
From nivrittaa (withdrawn, turned inward) + atma (self); Repeated from name 230; "He Whose Inner Self Is Turned Away from All Worldly Attachment" - perfectly detached from all that He has created, His innermost self remains forever free and unentangled.
Mythology / Philosophy / Spiritual:
**Explanation<br> *Nivritti* = turning away/withdrawal and *Atma* = self. Vishnu as Nivrittaatma is the one whose inner nature is completely turned away from all external dependency — completely self-sufficient, requiring nothing from creation to be complete, content, or blissful. He is the ultimate example of *Vairagya* (dispassion) and *Nivritti* (withdrawal from worldly attachment). **Spiritual Interpretation<br> The two fundamental orientations in spiritual life are *Pravritti* (engagement with the world) and *Nivritti* (withdrawal from worldly attachment). Vishnu, while fully engaged in cosmic activity (*Pravritti*), is simultaneously completely *Nivritti* in His inner nature — the perfect paradox of divine action without attachment. This is the *Nishkama-Karma* (desireless action) that the Bhagavad Gita teaches as the highest path. **Puranic Reference<br> The Bhagavata Purana's *Uddhava Gita* (11th Skandha) contains Krishna's (Vishnu's) final teachings to Uddhava — including the model of the Avadhuta (the supreme renunciant) who is Nivrittaatma — completely unattached within, while moving freely through the world. This is Vishnu's own inner nature expressed through the Avadhuta archetype.
