What Does the Name Amoha Mean?
Amoha is a Sanskrit name meaning "freedom from delusion" or "non-delusion." It is formed from the Sanskrit prefix a- (not) and moha (delusion, confusion, infatuation). Literally, it means "absence of delusion." In Indian philosophical and religious thought, particularly in Buddhism, amoha is a technical term for non-delusion, one of the three wholesome roots (along with non-greed and non-hatred). It is associated with wisdom and clarity. As a given name, it carries this literal meaning rather than a symbolic one.
Amoha Name History & Origins
The Sanskrit term amoha appears in ancient Indian texts. In the Pali Canon of Theravada Buddhism, it is one of the three wholesome roots (kusala-mūla), opposite to greed, hatred, and delusion. In Mahayana Buddhism, it is associated with prajñā (wisdom). Hindu philosophical works also use the term. As a given name, Amoha is used in India and in Indian communities abroad. It is drawn from this philosophical vocabulary, and its meaning is taken directly from the Sanskrit word. The name does not have a separate etymological development apart from the Sanskrit term.
