Sarvajiva (सर्वजीव, IAST: sarvajīva) is a Sanskrit-origin Hindu boy-name meaning “The life within all living beings”. From sarva (all) and jīva (the living principle, the soul), this name reveals Vishnu as the universal life-force animating every creature in existence.
Meaning, etymology & significance
Sarvajīva unites sarva, meaning all or every, with jīva, the individual life-principle or soul that enlivens each being. The name may be read as 'the jīva of all' — that is, Vishnu is the innermost life within every life, the source of all vitality and consciousness. This resonates powerfully with the Bhāgavata teaching that the Paramātmā (Supreme Self) dwells as witness and sustainer within each individual soul.
Vishnu is glorified by this name in the Sahasranama as the all-pervading life-giver whose presence is the very reason any being draws breath. Pronounced sar-va-JEE-va, it is a theologically rich name that works well as a devotional given name.
Scriptural source
Sarvajiva appears in the Vishnu Sahasranama, among the sacred names of Vishnu.
