'''Īśvara''' (devanāgarī: ईश्वर) is a [[Sanskrit]] word meaning ''controller'' or ''god'' in [[Hinduism]]. The term is also used with the meaning of "Lord" and, as such, it can be applied to the deity as well as to masters and kings.

Ishvara is seen as [[Brahman]] (the infinite and impersonal principle) when associated with [[Māyā]] or universal illusion, thus acquiring a personal character. Although connected to illusion the latter is under His control, unlike the [[jīva]] or individual [[soul]] who is Maya's slave. Ishvara has a lovely form, auspicious attributes and infinite power to create, sustain and destroy. He dwells in the heart of every being, controlling it from within. He responds positively to true devotion and sincere prayer.<ref>[http://veda.wikidot.com/ishvara# Īśvara] at Veda.</ref>
