jagattraye

 

"Jagattraye" in Devanagari script is written 

as जगत्त्रये

The Sanskrit term "jagattraye" translates to "the three worlds" 

in English, referring to the Tripartite cosmological spheres: 

heaven, earth, and the underworld.

Explanation:

• The word jagat generally means "world" or "universe" in Sanskrit.
• Traye is the dual form denoting "three" (from traya, meaning three) 
• when used in combination with another noun.
• Therefore, jagattraye literally means “in the three worlds” 
• or “among the three worlds”, referring to the classical Hindu 
• concept of the universe being divided into three realms: Svarga 
• (heaven), Bhumi (earth), and Patala (netherworld or underworld)

For example, a hymn may describe Śiva’s power or presence

“throughout jagattraye”, emphasizing that it extends over heaven, 

earth, and the netherworld.

Thus, whenever you encounter jagattraye in Sanskrit scriptures,

it should be understood as a symbolic reference to the entirety 

of the manifested universe spanning three primary cosmic layers.
