Nissārita (निस्सारित) refers to “having been dislodged from one’s post”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.5.16 (“The battle of the gods”).—Accordingly, as Brahmā and the Gods eulogized Viṣṇu: “[...] The sun has been dislodged (nissārita) from his post. Similarly the moon and the fire too have been removed. The Serpent-king has been removed from Pātāla and Dharmarāja has been dispossessed. While men freely move about, the gods do not shine. We have sought refuge in you. Let measures for his annihilation be thought of. [...]”.
