hansa | हंस

1. A swan.
2. A category of spiritual practitioner who perceives God within everything, and therefore does not get attached. A hansa-saint lives in the world of duality but chooses only the eternal, the paramhansa sees only the self everywhere and the shri paramhansa sees only his beloved everywhere.
