Thus, he is called \u2018kumbha:\u2019 \u2013 the one who is very familiar to the worshipper.<\/p>\n<p>Alternately, he takes the archA forms in various places, temples, houses, etc thereby facilitating his meditation and service unto his devotees as shown previously, in order to uplift them. Even if a person has a small relation with such divine places where bhagavAn resides in his archA form \u2013 such as being born or dead in such places, bhagavAn takes that itself as a cause to grace such souls and saves them from the fear of the servitors of yama. Thus, he possesses a divine charm, and hence called \u2018kumbha:\u2019 \u2013 the one who uplifts the souls.<\/p>\n<p>This is supported in the scriptures thus:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\u201cHe makes this world shine, by pervading all over (in the form of archA vigrahas)\u201d<\/li>\n<li>\u201c&#8230;he makes this his own place\u201d, etc.<\/li>\n<li>The boundaries of bhagavAn\u2019s land (temples, etc) are defined thus in the scriptures:<\/li>\n<li>\u201cThe extent up to which the sound of a conch blown in a temple resonates and can be heard is said to be a \u2018kshEthra\u2019 or the temple boundary.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The scriptures further say thus:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\u201cThe souls beget all their desired fruits \u2013 both in this world as well as the nether \u2013 by worshipping bhagavAn in places where he resides (temples, etc)\u201d<\/li>\n<li>\u201cbhagavAn shows his presence at all times in various places on this earth in order to free all the fallen souls from the clutches of this samsAra\u201d<\/li>\n<li>\u201cAll fallen souls approach bhagavAn vishNu with all their kin, and take his refuge \u2013 pleading him to uplift them. The servitors of vishNu take notice of such devotees and rush to their help with an uproar in a grand chariot. They defeat the messengers of yama with their might, and bring the distressed soul before bhagavAn. They produce that soul with a prayer to bhagavAn to do whatever he wishes with that soul, whom they produced after freeing him of his physical body made of five elements. They say to bhagavAn, \u201cOh Lord, this soul gave up his mortal body in your place. So we have brought him to you. Do as you please\u201d. Hearing this prayer of his servitors, bhagavAn \u2013 overcome with his compassion towards that fallen soul \u2013 sees him with a pacifying glance and accepts him into his fold\u201d, etc.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>With all these statements and more, the scriptures have shown how bhagavAn uses the relation of his places of residence with his devotees in order to purify them when they have given up their mortal bodies in such divine places \u2013 through his divine servitors, eventually frees them from the cycles of birth and death, and finally gives away himself to such blessed souls. All this is possible due to his descent in the form of archA vigrahas.<\/p>\n<p>Etymology: With his various archA forms, bhagavAn accepts worship from devotees showing his resemblance and intimacy with them. Thus, he is called \u2018kumbha:\u2019. Alternately, since bhagavAn makes this world shine with his grace, he is called \u2018kumbha:\u2019.
