Devarshiraja (देवर्षिराज, IAST: Devarṣirāja) is a Sanskrit-origin Hindu boy-name meaning “King among divine sages”. Compounded from deva (divine), ṛṣi (sage), and rāja (king), this name exalts Vishnu as the sovereign ruler over all celestial seers.
Meaning, etymology & significance
The name Devarṣirāja unites three luminous Sanskrit roots: deva, the radiant one; ṛṣi, the inspired seer who perceives cosmic truth; and rāja, the majestic king. Together they proclaim Vishnu as the supreme overlord of every divine sage who inhabits the higher realms of existence. His omniscience surpasses even the enlightened vision of the greatest ṛṣis, for He is their very source and sustainer.
As an epithet in the Vishnu Sahasranama, Devarṣirāja honors the Lord's sovereignty over luminaries such as Nārada and Vasiṣṭha; the name is pronounced deh-var-shee-RAA-ja, with stress on the long rāja syllable.
