Durasada (दुरासद, IAST: Durāsada) is a Sanskrit-origin Hindu boy-name meaning “He who is difficult to approach or attain”. From dur (with difficulty) and āsada, derived from ā + sad (to approach, to reach), Durāsada proclaims Viṣṇu as the Supreme who cannot be easily approached without purification, devotion, and grace.
Meaning, etymology & significance
The prefix dur indicates that which is done with great difficulty or hardship; āsada is the act of approaching and reaching. Together they convey that the Lord, though ever-present, is not realized by the casual or the impure — His direct experience requires the sincere effort of sādhana, the grace of a guru, and the ripening of past merit. This name is at once humbling and inspiring: it acknowledges the heights of divine reality while beckoning the sincere seeker onward.
Durāsada is a Viṣṇu Sahasranāma epithet that reminds devotees of the preciousness and profundity of spiritual attainment. Pronounced 'Du-RA-sa-da,' it is usable as a given name and carries a quiet, dignified philosophical weight.
Scriptural source
Durasada appears in the Vishnu Sahasranama, among the sacred names of Vishnu.
