Simple Meaning:
From *sat* (the real, the good, the true) + *gati* (path, movement, destination); "The True Path and the True Destination of All" - the entire journey of the soul through countless lives has only one true direction and one true destination: Him. *Sadgatih* - the good path and the good goal - are both the same: Vishnu.
Mythology / Philosophy / Spiritual:
**Explanation<br> Sat = true/righteous/good; Gati = goal/path/refuge. Vishnu is the supreme goal and refuge for all virtuous and righteous souls — the destination toward which all genuine spiritual effort moves. **Mythological<br> All the great sages, kings, and devotees of Hindu tradition — Prahlada, Dhruva, Ambarisha, Gajendra — received Sadgati through Vishnu's grace. Even sinners who called Vishnu's name at death were given Sadgati — the highest destination. **Spiritual<br> Sadgati is contrasted with Durgati (unfortunate rebirth). Vishnu as Sadgatih ensures that sincere devotees attain liberation or at minimum a higher birth that continues the journey. No effort in devotion to Vishnu is ever wasted or forgotten. **References<br> Bhagavad Gita 8.15–16 | Bhagavata Purana 6.2 | Vishnu Sahasranama Phala Shruti
