**Reference
Refers to Vishnu's association with Ananta-Shesha, the cosmic serpent. **Mythological Interpretation
Vishnu reclines on Ananta-Shesha (also called Adishesha), the thousand-headed serpent who represents eternity and cosmic time. The serpent floats on the cosmic ocean (Kshirasagara), symbolizing the transcendent state of Vishnu beyond the cycles of creation and dissolution. Shesha represents the residue (shesha means "remainder") that remains after the universe is dissolved. The serpent's hoods form a protective canopy over the Lord, and its endless coils represent infinite time and space. In His Krishna avatar, the Lord also subdued the serpent Kaliya, demonstrating mastery over all serpent beings.
