jNAnavigraha : Whose body is knowledge.

 

because the whole world is in the form of knowledge. The Visnu Pr.

[book II]:"JNAna alone is the supreme Brahman, JNAna, is the cause of

bondage. This universe consists of knowledge. There is nothing beyond

knowledge. O Maitreya, know that JNAna is both vidyA and avidyA"

 

Or JNAna, knowledge, vigraha, expansion, ie through her one's

knowledge expands.

JNAna-vigrahA means "the embodiment of knowledge." Alternatively,

VigrahA means "extension," i.e. of Consciousness.
