Historical Usage

Historical References

The name 'Narayan' is derived from 'Nara' and 'Nayana', meaning 'the lord of the senses and the mind'. In Hinduism, Narayan is considered as the ultimate God, the supreme being, and the source of all life. He is often depicted as lying on the seven serpents, known as the 'Seven Hoods of Adisesha'.

Ancient India (circa 1500 BCE - 1000 CE)

The name 'Narayanik' is a derivative of 'Narayan', and is used in various regional contexts in Hinduism. For instance, in the western Indian state of Maharashtra, Narayanik refers to the family deity of the Mahar community. The Mahars were once considered to be 'Sudras' or the lowest social group in the caste system, but they are now recognized as a Scheduled Tribe in India.

Medieval India (circa 1100 CE - 1800 CE)
