Mahadavaikapujita (महादेवैकपूजित, IAST: Mahādevaikapūjita) is a Sanskrit-origin Hindu boy-name meaning “Worshipped solely by the great god Shiva”. From mahādeva (the great god), eka (alone/solely), and pūjita (worshipped), this name reveals Vishnu as the singular supreme reality before whom even Lord Shiva bows in exclusive veneration.
Meaning, etymology & significance
The epithet is built from mahādeva (महादेव, the great god, a name of Shiva), eka (एक, one or sole), and pūjita (पूजित, adored or worshipped). Together these syllables proclaim that even Shiva—himself the destroyer and one of the highest divinities—reserves his deepest, exclusive worship for Lord Vishnu alone. This reflects the exalted Vaishnava vision of Vishnu as Para-Brahman, the ultimate godhead.
As an epithet in the Vishnu Sahasranama, it honors the profound mutual reverence between Hari and Hara while asserting Vishnu's ultimate supremacy. The name is long for everyday use, but 'Pujita' or 'Ekapujita' can serve as usable short forms.
Scriptural source
Mahadavaikapujita appears in the Vishnu Sahasranama, among the sacred names of Vishnu.
