Apyayah –“The One in whom the entire Universe merges”-during the great deluge when the Total- mind-the Creator-rests. The Supreme Atman functioning through the Total-mind is the Creator, Brahmaaji-each mind being ruled by its own vaasanaas. The Total-vaasanaas in the Universe (Causal-Body) is Maayaa and the Supreme Self expressing through Maayaa (the Total-Causal-Body) is Eesvara. Therefore, Sree Narayana, as Eesvara, is the One into Whom the total world of experiences merges when the Total-mind rests during the ‘pause’ between two busy cycles of Creation and involvement in the projected world of thoughts-feelings-objects.

In the north this term is read as Avyayah where the meaning is clear: “Immutable”: and needs no explanation.
