Jagadekasphuradveerya (जगदेकस्फुरद्वीर्य, IAST: Jagadekasphuradv īrya) is a Sanskrit-origin Hindu boy-name meaning “He whose singular valour blazes forth throughout the universe”. This compound — 'jagat' (universe), 'eka' (alone, singular), 'sphurat' (blazing forth, pulsating), and 'vīrya' (heroic power, virility) — proclaims Vishnu as the one and only being whose might radiates through every corner of existence.

Meaning, etymology & significance

The participial form 'sphurat' from the root 'sphur' (to quiver, to flash, to throb with life) conveys a dynamic, living quality to the Lord's power — not static omnipotence but an ever-pulsating cosmic vigour. 'Vīrya' in the Vedic sense encompasses both physical heroism and the creative energy of the divine, linking the name to Vishnu's role as the śaktimat, the one supremely endowed with power. Together, the compound evokes the image of a sun whose light no corner of the cosmos can evade.

This elaborate compound is a liturgical epithet in the Vishnu Sahasranāma tradition and is not used as a given name; it is better appreciated as a theological declaration recited in worship.
