Urvashisrija (उर्वशीसृज, IAST: Urvaśīsṛja) is an Sanskrit-origin Hindu boy-name meaning “Creator and sender forth of Urvashi”. From Urvaśī (the celestial apsara) and sṛja (one who creates or releases), Urvaśīsṛja names Vishnu as the divine source who brought forth the celestial nymph Urvashi from his own being.
Meaning, etymology & significance
Urvaśīsṛja combines Urvaśī, the most celebrated of the apsaras who in some Puranic accounts emerged from the thigh (uru) of Vishnu, with sṛja, the agent form of the root sṛj meaning to create or emit. The epithet thus identifies Vishnu as the creator of Urvashi, underscoring the Puranic tradition that even the most exquisite of heavenly beauties originates from the Lord's own divine form. This name celebrates Vishnu's creative omnipotence expressed through the sublime.
Vishnu bears this epithet in recognition of his role as the primal artist whose creative power gives rise to beauty itself; the name is devotionally rich but unusual as a given name. Pronounced ur-va-shee-SRIJ-a.
Scriptural source
Urvashisrija appears in the Vishnu Sahasranama, among the sacred names of Vishnu.
