Sarvavighnavidāraṇa (सर्वविघ्नविदारण) refers to “that which removes all obstacles”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.3.51 (“The resuscitation of Kāma”).—Accordingly, after the Gods spoke to Kāma: “[...] Coming back to His apartment, Śiva saluted the sages, Viṣṇu and me according to the worldly convention. He was duly saluted by the gods and others. Shouts of ‘Victory’ and ‘Obeisance’ rose up along with the sound of Vedic mantras which were auspicious and which removed all obstacles (sarvavighnavidāraṇa). Then Viṣṇu, I (Indra), gods, sages, Siddhas, secondary gods and the Nāgas eulogised Him severally”.
