Anagha (अनघा, IAST: anaghā) is an Sanskrit-origin Hindu girl-name meaning “The sinless, utterly pure and immaculate one”. Formed from the negative prefix 'an-' and 'agha' (sin, impurity), Anagha declares Lakshmi to be wholly untouched by any blemish — absolute purity made manifest.
Meaning, etymology & significance
The word 'agha' in classical Sanskrit denotes sin, evil, or moral stain, and the prefix 'an-' negates it entirely, yielding a name that sings of faultless purity. Lakshmi as Anagha is the divine principle that is forever beyond taint, reminding worshippers that true auspiciousness can only spring from a source that is itself unstained. Her grace, when it descends upon the sincere heart, purifies the recipient as well.
Anagha is shared as an epithet by both Lakshmi and Parvati, and appears in the Vishnu Sahasranama as well; it is pronounced 'ah-NAH-ghaa' with a long final vowel.
Scriptural source
Anagha appears in the Lakshmi Ashtottaram, among the sacred names of Lakshmi.
