Vedic Reflections - Shri VishnusahasranAmam (Stanza 32)
The 32nd shloka lays stress on Lord nArAyana and desires of jivas. Besides, the most interesting name would pavanah which loosely tries to relate itself with the cause of wind
bhUta-bhavya-bhavan-nAthah pavanah pAvano-nalah
kAmah kAmakrit-kAntah kAmah kAmapradah prabhuh
भुतभव्यभवन्नाथ: पवनः पावनोअनलः |
कामहा कामकृतकान्तः कामः कामप्रदः प्रभु: ||
bhUta-bhavya-bhavan-nAthah
The One who is the Lord of everything in the past, present and future
pavanah
The One who blows the wind, scientific interpretation would be easy enough for anyone, the source of energy that moves the wind. Well, it's a difference in pressure that causes wind, but look at in the broader sense, The wind in itself is an energy, and The Lord that we are talking about for the past few months can be assumed to be the greatest source of energy. And energy has the property to transform itself from one form to another and besides it cannot be created. Wind's energy ought to be transformed from some source, which could be why He is called pavanah or The One who blows the wind
