Ksirodakasayi Vishnu () is a form of the Hindu god Vishnu. As the Paramatma (Ultimate Soul), he is described to "enter every atom and the heart of all beings as a witness, and gives remembrance, knowledge and forgetfulnessâÂÂ.
In Gauá¸Âëya Vaishnavism, a school of Vaishá¹Âavism, the SÃÂtvata-tantra describes three different forms, or aspects, of Vishnu as Mahavishnu also known as Karnodakshayi Vishnu (The form from whose breath the multiverse is born and from whose inhalation, whole multiverse of matter is drawn and engulfed), Garbhodakà Âayë-Viá¹£á¹Âu and Kṣërodakaà ÂÃÂyë Vishnu (Each universe has Garbhodakà Âayë-Viá¹£á¹Âu as its base and Kṣërodakaà ÂÃÂyë-Viá¹£á¹Âu in every matter particles as a copied version) Kṣërodakaà ÂÃÂyë-Viá¹£á¹Âu resides in the heart of every living creature as a four hand expansion similar to that of MahÃÂviá¹£á¹Âu. He is also referred to as the ParamÃÂtmÃÂ, or super soul. His abode is Vaikuná¹Âha. His personal abode is the Kshira Sagara (Ocean of Condensed Milk) and he is realised as the Aniruddha expansion of Narayana.
Viá¹£há¹Âu, or the deity of the quality of goodness in the material world, is the puruá¹£ÃÂvatÃÂra known as Kṣërodakaà ÂÃÂyë Viá¹£á¹Âu or ParamÃÂtmÃÂ.
