Sarvayogavinihsrita (सर्वयोगविनिःसृत, IAST: Sarvayogaviniḥsṛta) is a Sanskrit-origin Hindu boy-name meaning “One who transcends and is freed from all bondage”. From sarva (all), yoga (union, but here meaning connection or binding attachment), and viniḥsṛta (fully emerged from, set free), the name proclaims Vishnu as the one who has completely transcended every form of conditional connection while remaining the source of all yoga.

Meaning, etymology & significance

While yoga in its liberating sense means union with the divine, in compound with viniḥsṛta it denotes transcendence of every entangling relationship — the Lord is not bound by māyā, karma, or any limiting condition. The prefix vi-ni intensifies the root sṛ (to flow or move), indicating a complete and absolute emergence, not merely a partial release. Vishnu thus embodies the paradox of the yogi's goal: the very freedom that yogins strive to attain is His natural, unacquired state.

This philosophical epithet of Vishnu from the Vishnu Sahasranāma is more at home in theological discourse and chanting than as a given personal name, given its grammatical length and complexity. It is deeply cherished in Vaishnava Vedāntic commentary.
