Srinivas Rao
Srinivasa (Sanskrit ) is a Hindu name. The term Srinivasa is Vaishnava in origin, the combination of two Sanskrit words, ''Shri'' (श्री) and ''nivasa'' (निवास). It is a name for males in India as well as a family surname. Shrinivasan (श्रीनिवासन्) is the singular nominative form, and along with its variants Srinivasan, Srinivas, and others, is used as a forename or surname. Etymology ''Shri'' means "radiance" or "diffusing light"; ''nivasa'' means "place of residence", which is considered to be the source of light (as a metaphor for life) in Hindu scriptures. ''Shri'' is also an epithet of Lakshmi who is the consort associated with Venkateshvara, and often described to be embodied within him. Hence, the alternative meaning of this name is: "one within whom Lakshmi (prosperity) lives". Variants Srinivas is the northern Indian variant of the original Sanskrit name Srinivasa, employed after the schwa-deletion in the Indo-Aryan languages. T ...
