Nirmohā (निर्मोहा, IAST: Nirmohā) is a Sanskrit-origin Hindu girl-name meaning “She who is free from all delusion and infatuation”. Composed of nir (without) + moha (delusion, infatuation, or bewildering attachment), this epithet declares that the Goddess abides in perfect clarity — the pure light of awareness unshadowed by any clouding of discernment.
Meaning, etymology & significance
Moha in Sanskrit philosophy is the root of spiritual bondage: it is the thick veil that prevents a being from distinguishing the real from the unreal. As Nirmohā, the Goddess is the living refutation of moha — she is wisdom itself, untouched by the confusion that binds others. This name invokes that quality of crystalline clarity in a child's life.
In the Sahasranama sequence, Nirmohā appears alongside Mohanāśinī, one name describing the Goddess's own freedom and the next her power to free others. Pronounced nir-MO-hā, clearly and evenly.
Scriptural source
Nirmohā appears in the Lalitha Sahasranama, among the sacred names of Lalitha.
