Dyuta (द्युत, IAST: Dyuta) is a Sanskrit-origin Hindu boy-name meaning “The radiant, luminous one; divine brilliance”. From the root dyut meaning to shine or to be brilliant, Dyuta names Vishnu as pure self-luminous radiance, the divine light that illuminates all of existence.
Meaning, etymology & significance
The Sanskrit root dyut (to shine, to gleam) gives rise to dyuta, meaning radiance, brilliance, or luminosity. As a name of Vishnu, it affirms that He is svayaṃjyotis — self-luminous — requiring no external light since He is the very source of all light in the cosmos. This name is cognate with the root of the famous Gāyatrī Mantra's dhīmahi, evoking the divine solar brilliance that awakens the intellect.
Dyuta honors Vishnu's identity with transcendent light and is related etymologically to the word dyaus (sky, heaven); pronounced DYOO-ta, it is rare as a personal name but carries profound luminous symbolism.
Scriptural source
Dyuta appears in the Vishnu Sahasranama, among the sacred names of Vishnu.
