Description :

Ananta is a Sanskrit term which means ‘endless’ or ‘limitless’, also means ‘eternal’ or ‘infinite’, in other words, it also means infinitude or an unending expansion or without limit. It is one of the many names of Lord Vishnu. Ananta is the Shesha-naga, the celestial snake, on which Lord Vishnu reclines.

Vishnu reposes on Ananta floating on the ocean of eternal existence sheltered by his hoods. Ananta is that which is without destruction because it is not subject to the six modifications such as birth, growth, death etc.

The term Ananta used in the phrase “Anadi (begininngless) , Ananta (endless) , Akhanda(unbroken) , Sat-chit-ananda (being-consciousness-bliss)” refers to the Infinite, the single non-dual reality.

It denotes the infinite causal energy of the Creator, the energy in the form of Chaitanya that has no end.
