Jnanavijnanapurada (ज्ञानविज्ञानपारद, IAST: Jñānavijñānapārada) is a Sanskrit-origin Hindu boy-name meaning “Bestower of the shore of knowledge and wisdom”. Combining jñāna (scriptural or theoretical knowledge), vijñāna (direct experiential wisdom), pāra (the far shore, ultimate attainment), and da (giver), this name honours Viṣṇu as the one who ferries devotees to complete realisation.
Meaning, etymology & significance
In Vedāntic thought, jñāna and vijñāna are complementary: jñāna is the understanding of sacred texts and principles, while vijñāna is the living, intimate experience of truth. Pārada literally means 'one who takes to the other shore,' evoking the image of crossing the ocean of saṃsāra. Together they describe a Lord whose grace alone grants both intellectual clarity and transcendent realisation.
Viṣṇu is addressed by this compound epithet in the Sahasranāma as the ultimate teacher who unites theory and realisation in His own being. The name is philosophically profound but lengthy for everyday use; it may be shortened to Jñānapārada or Vijñānapārada in practice.
Scriptural source
Jnanavijnanapurada appears in the Vishnu Sahasranama, among the sacred names of Vishnu.
