Nirvyagra (निर्व्यग्र) refers to “one who is free from perturbation” and is use to describe Gaṇeśa, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.4.18 (“Gaṇeśa crowned as the chief of Gaṇas”).—Accordingly, as Brahmā narrated to Nārada: “O great sage, when the son of Pārvatī was resuscitated and seen by the goddess, listen to what happened there. I shall narrate the jubilation that ensued. O sage, that son of Pārvatī was resuscitated. He was free from distress and perturbation (nirvyagra). Then he was crowned by the gods and the leaders of Gaṇas. On seeing her son, Pārvatī was highly delighted. Taking him up with both her hands she embraced him joyously. [...]”.
