Historical references
The Sanskrit term 'Srīvar' is derived from the god Varuna, who is considered the god of water and the lord of rivers. According to Hindu mythology, Lord Vishnu is often depicted holding the conch Panchajanya, which is believed to be the symbolic representation of Varuna. This connection is further emphasized in the Mahabharata, where Varuna is referred to as the elder brother of Vishnu and the one who bestowed the conch upon him.
Circa 4th Century BCE
Another reference to 'Srīvar' can be found in the Puranic literature, specifically the Agni Purana. Here, the god Agni is mentioned as having various forms, one of which is 'Srīvar'. In this context, 'Srīvar' is considered an aspect of Agni, symbolizing the purifying aspect of fire, particularly in the form of the Ganga river.
Circa 7th Century CE
