History & Origin

Shivarth is a modern Sanskrit-styled compound. Its first element is Shiva, one of the principal deities of Hinduism, worshipped across the subcontinent as destroyer and transformer, and honoured here respectfully; the second is artha, 'purpose, meaning, aim' — one of the four traditional goals of life in Hindu thought. The compound itself is a contemporary formation rather than a classical name, and glosses vary. Routes uncertain in detail, which we note (said 'shih-VARTH').

In the U.S. it appears only very rarely and is newly emerging. Rare, devotional, and Sanskrit-rooted.
