Mahapralayavishvaikadvitiyarivalangaraja (महाप्रलयविश्वैकद्वितीयारिवलनागराज, IAST: Mahāpralayaviśvaikadvitīyārivalanāgarāja) is a Sanskrit-origin Hindu boy-name meaning “King of serpents, sole refuge at great dissolution”. This majestic compound weaves together mahāpralaya (the great cosmic dissolution), viśva (universe), eka-dvitīya (the one without a second), ari (enemy/foe), vala (encircling strength), and nāga-rāja (king of serpents), proclaiming Vishnu—resting on Ādiśeṣa—as the unrivalled sovereign whose serpent-throne encircles all creation even at its end.
Meaning, etymology & significance
At the time of mahāpralaya, the entire universe dissolves into the primordial waters and Vishnu alone remains, reclining on the cosmic serpent Śeṣa. The phrase viśva-eka-dvitīya asserts his non-dual supremacy—he is 'the one without a second in the universe.' The ari-vala element may refer to the power that subdues all adversarial forces, while nāgarāja honours Śeṣa, the infinite serpent-king who serves as his eternal couch.
This elaborate epithet belongs to the tradition of expansive stotra compounds celebrating Vishnu's transcendence over cosmic time; as a given name it is impractical and is pronounced ma-haa-pra-la-ya-vish-vai-ka-dvi-tee-yaa-ri-va-la-naa-ga-raa-ja.
