“Let us be committed to cultivating ( nam o) spiritual understanding ( bhagav a te), and so move towards ( ā ya aaya) Presence of Deity as our dwelling place and resting place ( V a sudeva).” Taking the first bhaga as an example, our mantra can mean. ā ya (aaya) can mean - “is our Goal,” “move towards”, “start building”.Soraya sings this as two words - V ā sudev ā ya, where the V ā sudev ā ya (Vaasudevaaya) is the dative form of the noun Vāsudeva, and it means “moving towards Vāsudeva”. Vasudeva can mean Presence that surrounds and envelopes us in the spiritual Qualities, in a protective way.Vasudeva can also mean - the support and resting place for Presence (of Deity), or.The Udyoga Parva of the Mahabharata gives further description – Vasudeva can mean - Deity that we “dwell within.”.Vasudeva can mean - the Deity “dwelling within” us, or.Vasudeva is another Name for Vishnu, and the last book of the Vishnu Purana (or stories about Vishnu), chapter 5, describes Vasudeva as Deity that “dwells in all beings, and all beings dwell in Vasudeva.” Thus.

Nam o = nama h = namas means “bow, obeisance, reverential salutation, adoration” as a word in the dictionary.
