Viradrupa (विराड्रूपा, IAST: Virāḍrūpā) is a Sanskrit-origin Hindu girl-name meaning “She whose form is the universal virāṭ cosmic body”. From virāṭ (the vast universal form, the cosmic person) and rūpā (form, embodiment), this name declares Lalitā to be the totality of the manifest universe in her own divine body.
Meaning, etymology & significance
Virāṭ, in the Vedic cosmological tradition established in the Puruṣasūkta, refers to the cosmic person whose body encompasses and constitutes all of existence — the sun as eye, the sky as head, the earth as feet. As Virāḍrūpā, Lalitā is identified with this supreme cosmic form, affirming that the entire phenomenal universe is none other than the visible body of the Goddess. This is the Śākta answer to the Vaiṣṇava concept of Viśvarūpa — for the devotee of Lalitā, it is she alone who pervades, sustains, and is all things.
This profound cosmological epithet appears in the Sahasranāma to declare Lalitā's identity with the totality of creation. Virāḍrūpā carries weighty philosophical content that makes it more suited to contemplation than casual use as a given name; it is pronounced vi-RAAD-roo-paa.
Scriptural source
Viradrupa appears in the Lalitha Sahasranama, among the sacred names of Lalitha.
