Vidhi meaning

Vidhi (विधि) is a Hindu girl's name of Sanskrit origin.

Rule, method, precept; destiny; a name of Brahma the creator

Vidhi (विधि) is Sanskrit vidhi, from vi-dhā, "to arrange, to set in order, to ordain". Monier-Williams gives a rule, precept or injunction, especially the directions for a ritual, and also method, manner and conduct. It can mean creation and destiny, and Vidhi is a name of Brahma, the creator, and of a goddess. Name lists explain Vidhi as "rule", "method" or "destiny", all of which come straight from the dictionary. In Hindi vidhi is still the everyday word for a method or procedure.
