The word Hari appears as 650th name of Vishnu in the Vishnu Sahasranama of the Mahabharata. Vishnu is He who destroys samsara, along with ignorance as its cause. Samsara is the entanglement in the cycle of birth and death. Vishnu is usually described as having dark complexion of water-filled clouds and having four arms. He is also depicted as a pale blue being, as are his incarnations Rama and Krishna. He holds a padma (lotus flower), the Kaumodaki Gada (mace), the Paanchjanya Shankha ( conch) and the Sudarshana Chakra (discus) in his four hands.

Vishnu made Indra's success possible. Traditional explanation of the name Vishnu involves the root vish, meaning 'to settle' or also (in the Rigveda) 'to enter into, to pervade'. Thus, Vishnu means 'the All Pervading One'. He is not limited by space, time or substance. According to the Nir:ukta, Vishnu is the 'one who enters everywhere' and 'that which is free from fetters and bondages: Indra's other name 'Shakra', also means 'powerful' or 'having strength'.

Indra doesnot mean Indra, the Ruler of the Gods. As per Nighantu, the meaning is given as Hari (may not be Lord Vishnu).
