What is the meaning of the sanskrit name Nishkala?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Hi,

As I understand it, the Sanskrit name Nishkala is comprised of two Sanskrit parts: Nish, meaning "without" and Kala meaning "time" or "division", since it is by division that time is created. Thus Nishkala means "without time" or "without division"-without division in the sense of, "that which is whole, not because it became whole, but because it was always whole". Nishkala is also the linga form of Shiva or the unmanifest form of Shiva.
