विकर्षण
विकर्षण en 30 segundos
- Vikarsan means repulsion or aversion, the opposite of attraction.
- It is used in science for physical forces and in life for feelings of dislike.
- Grammatically, it is a masculine noun often used with 'hota hai' or 'paida karna'.
- It is more formal than common words for dislike like 'nafrat' or 'pasand na hona'.
The Hindi word विकर्षण (Vikarsan) is a sophisticated noun that primarily translates to 'repulsion' or 'aversion.' Rooted in Sanskrit, it is the polar opposite of the much more common word आकर्षण (Aakarshan), which means 'attraction.' While attraction pulls things or people together, विकर्षण represents the force or feeling that pushes them apart. Understanding this word requires looking at it through two distinct lenses: the physical/scientific lens and the psychological/emotional lens. In a scientific context, it refers to the physical force that causes two objects, like similar poles of a magnet, to repel each other. In a social or emotional context, it describes a deep-seated feeling of dislike, distaste, or a desire to move away from someone or something.
- Scientific Application
- In physics, विकर्षण is used to describe the 'force of repulsion' (विकर्षण बल). For instance, when you try to push two North poles of magnets together, the resistance you feel is विकर्षण. It is an essential term in textbooks from middle school onwards.
- Psychological Aversion
- In human relationships and aesthetics, विकर्षण signifies a lack of interest that borders on active avoidance. It isn't just 'not liking' something; it is the feeling that something is inherently off-putting. If a person's behavior is rude or unethical, you might feel a sense of विकर्षण toward their personality.
- Literary Nuance
- In Hindi literature and formal essays, authors use विकर्षण to describe the push-and-pull of human nature. It often appears in discussions about ethics, where one should feel विकर्षण toward vice and आकर्षण toward virtue.
समान ध्रुवों के बीच विकर्षण होता है। (There is repulsion between similar poles.)
The word is composed of the prefix वि- (vi-), which often denotes 'away,' 'opposite,' or 'without,' and the root कर्षण (karshan), which means 'pulling' or 'drawing.' Therefore, the etymological meaning is 'pulling away.' This helps learners visualize the word as an active force of distancing. Unlike 'hate' (नफरत - nafrat), which is an intense emotion, विकर्षण is more about the mechanical or instinctive reaction of being repelled. You might feel विकर्षण toward a bad smell or a dishonest person without necessarily having a personal vendetta against them.
उसकी कठोर बातों ने मेरे मन में उसके प्रति विकर्षण पैदा कर दिया। (His harsh words created a sense of aversion in my mind toward him.)
In modern usage, you will find this word in news reports discussing political 'repulsion' between parties, in philosophical debates about 'vairagya' (detachment), and in psychological studies of human behavior. It is a B1 level word because while it is common in formal writing and science, it is less common in casual street slang, where people might prefer the word घृणा (ghrina) or simply अरुचि (aruchi). However, to master Hindi at an intermediate level, understanding विकर्षण is vital for discussing complex feelings and physical phenomena accurately.
Using विकर्षण correctly requires understanding its grammatical role as a masculine noun. It is often paired with the verb होना (to be), पैदा करना (to create/produce), or महसूस करना (to feel). Because it is a formal word, it dictates a certain tone in the sentence. You wouldn't usually use it to say you don't like pizza; you use it when discussing the fundamental nature of things or deep-seated psychological reactions.
- The 'Between' Pattern (के बीच)
- When talking about physical forces, use [Subject A] और [Subject B] के बीच विकर्षण. Example: 'दो सकारात्मक आवेशों के बीच विकर्षण होता है' (There is repulsion between two positive charges).
- The 'Toward' Pattern (के प्रति)
- When expressing emotional aversion, use [Person] के प्रति विकर्षण. Example: 'मुझे झूठ बोलने वालों के प्रति विकर्षण महसूस होता है' (I feel aversion toward liars).
चुंबक के समान सिरे एक-दूसरे को विकर्षण के कारण दूर धकेलते हैं। (Similar ends of a magnet push each other away due to repulsion.)
In a sentence, विकर्षण acts as the subject or the object of the feeling. It is a stable noun and does not change its form based on gender or number in standard usage (though oblique cases like विकर्षणों exist in very specific poetic contexts, they are rare). If you are describing a person who is 'repelling,' you would use the adjective form विकर्षक (vikarshak), though विकर्षण as a noun is more frequently encountered in general discourse.
अत्यधिक विलासिता से अंततः विकर्षण होने लगता है। (Excessive luxury eventually leads to a feeling of aversion.)
To use it effectively in writing, consider the intensity. If you are writing a story and a character sees something truly disgusting, विकर्षण conveys a sense of turning away or wanting to flee. It is more sophisticated than 'disgust' (घृणा) because it implies a force of separation rather than just an emotional outburst. For example, in a political essay: 'दोनों विचारधाराओं के बीच का विकर्षण स्पष्ट था' (The repulsion between the two ideologies was clear). This implies that the ideologies are fundamentally incompatible and push away from each other.
You are most likely to encounter विकर्षण in formal, educational, or literary environments. It is not a word you would typically hear in a boisterous Bollywood item song, but you would certainly hear it in a serious drama or a news debate. In Indian schools, every student learns this word in the context of Physics (भौतिक विज्ञान). When a teacher explains electricity or magnetism, विकर्षण is a keyword. Therefore, any Hindi speaker with a basic education will be very familiar with its scientific meaning.
- In News and Media
- Journalists use विकर्षण to describe political shifts. If voters are moving away from a particular party, a news anchor might say, 'जनता में इस पार्टी के प्रति विकर्षण बढ़ रहा है' (Aversion toward this party is growing among the public).
- In Literature and Philosophy
- Hindi literature often explores the duality of आकर्षण (attraction) and विकर्षण. Philosophers like Swami Vivekananda or Osho, in their Hindi discourses, might use the term to describe the soul's aversion to worldly attachments as a path to spiritual growth.
विज्ञान के प्रयोग में हमने विकर्षण के सिद्धांत को समझा। (In the science experiment, we understood the principle of repulsion.)
In a social setting, if someone is discussing a movie or a book that was intentionally off-putting or 'avant-garde,' they might use this word to describe the audience's reaction. It suggests a thoughtful, intellectualized dislike. For example, 'यह फिल्म दर्शकों में विकर्षण पैदा करती है' suggests the film is designed to make people uncomfortable or repelled. You might also hear it in high-level business meetings when discussing market trends—specifically, what is driving customers away (customer aversion).
राजनीति में विकर्षण और गठबंधन का खेल चलता रहता है। (The game of repulsion and alliances continues in politics.)
Lastly, in the context of Yoga and meditation, teachers might talk about the विकर्षण of the mind from external distractions. While the word प्रत्याहार (Pratyahara) is the technical term for withdrawal of senses, विकर्षण is sometimes used as a more accessible synonym to explain the act of pushing away distracting thoughts to focus on the inner self.
While विकर्षण is a precise word, learners often confuse it with other terms that denote dislike or distance. The most common mistake is using it as a direct synonym for 'hate' (नफरत - nafrat). While they are related, नफरत is a hot, active emotion, whereas विकर्षण is more of a cold, reactive force. You 'hate' an enemy, but you feel 'repulsion' toward a slimy surface or a corrupt idea.
- Confusion with 'Ghrina' (घृणा)
- घृणा means 'disgust' or 'loathing.' It is very close to विकर्षण, but घृणा is purely emotional. विकर्षण includes the physical act of being pushed away. You can say 'I feel ghrina,' but you say 'There is vikarsan between us.'
- Confusion with 'Virodh' (विरोध)
- विरोध means 'opposition' or 'resistance.' Learners sometimes use विकर्षण when they mean they oppose a plan. However, विकर्षण is an internal feeling or a physical force, while विरोध is usually an external action or stance.
गलत: मुझे इस खाने से विकर्षण है। (Incorrect: I have repulsion from this food.)
सही: मुझे इस खाने से अरुचि है। (Correct: I have a lack of interest/dislike for this food.)
Another mistake is the grammatical gender. Since it ends in 'an' (like many Sanskrit nouns), some learners mistakenly treat it as feminine. Remember, विकर्षण is masculine. Using feminine adjectives or verbs with it (e.g., *विकर्षण होती है*) is a tell-tale sign of a beginner. Always use masculine markers: *विकर्षण होता है* or *बड़ा विकर्षण*.
उनका व्यवहार विकर्षण पैदा करने वाला है। (Their behavior is such that it creates repulsion.)
Lastly, do not use विकर्षण as a verb directly. In English, we can say 'it repels me.' In Hindi, you cannot say 'यह मुझे विकर्षणता है.' You must use a helping verb: 'यह मुझे विकर्षित करता है' (It repels me - using the adjective form) or 'इससे मुझे विकर्षण होता है' (I experience repulsion from this).
To truly master विकर्षण, you should know its synonyms and how they differ in register and nuance. Depending on whether you are in a lab, a temple, or a coffee shop, your choice of word will change. While विकर्षण is the most versatile for formal and scientific use, other words might be more appropriate for emotional states.
- प्रतिकर्षण (Pratikarsan)
- This is a very close synonym, often used interchangeably in science. प्रतिकर्षण specifically emphasizes the 'counter-pull' or 'repelling back.' In physics textbooks, you might see प्रतिकर्षण used even more than विकर्षण for magnetic forces.
- अरुचि (Aruchi)
- अरुचि literally means 'no taste' or 'lack of interest.' It is much milder than विकर्षण. Use अरुचि when you simply don't care for a hobby or a dish, but use विकर्षण when the feeling is strong enough to make you want to distance yourself.
- विमुखता (Vimukhata)
- This means 'turning one's face away' or 'aversion.' It is a poetic and formal word. If someone has lost interest in worldly pleasures, they are said to have सांसारिक सुखों से विमुखता.
जहाँ आकर्षण है, वहाँ विकर्षण की संभावना भी रहती है। (Where there is attraction, there is also the possibility of repulsion.)
In a comparison of intensity, विकर्षण sits in the middle. It is stronger than अरुचि (dislike) but less emotionally violent than घृणा (hatred). It describes a natural or logical distance. For example, if two friends have a falling out because their values no longer align, they feel विकर्षण. If they start fighting and insulting each other, they feel नफरत or घृणा.
उसकी बातों में सच्चाई की कमी मेरे लिए विकर्षण का कारण बनी। (The lack of truth in his words became a reason for my aversion.)
Understanding these alternatives allows you to navigate Hindi social situations with grace. If you want to politely decline an invitation or express that you aren't interested in a topic, विकर्षण might be too strong—it sounds like you find the topic fundamentally repelling. In such cases, stick to अरुचि. But if you are writing a critique or a formal complaint, विकर्षण is the perfect word to show a principled stance of distancing.
How Formal Is It?
Dato curioso
The root 'karshan' (pulling) is the same root found in the name 'Krishna' (the one who attracts/pulls everyone). So 'Vikarsan' is literally the functional opposite of the energy of Krishna.
Guía de pronunciación
- Pronouncing 'v' as 'w'. In Hindi, it's between 'v' and 'w', but closer to 'v'.
- Making the 'sh' sound like 's' (Vikarsan instead of Vikarshan).
- Adding an extra vowel at the end (Vikarsana).
- Pronouncing the 'i' too long (Veekarsan).
- Not emphasizing the 'r' sound within the 'sh' (ष).

Origen de la palabra
Derived from the Sanskrit word 'विकर्षण' (vīkarṣaṇa). It is formed by the prefix 'vi-' (away/opposite) and the root 'kṛṣ' (to pull/draw/plow).
Significado original: The act of drawing apart or pulling away.
Indo-Aryan (Sanskrit)Contexto cultural
While not a slur, using 'vikarsan' toward a person can be quite cold and formal, implying they are naturally repelling.
English speakers might use 'repulsion' mostly for magnets, but use 'aversion' for feelings. In Hindi, 'Vikarsan' covers both perfectly.

You can say 'मुझे विकर्षण महसूस हो रहा है' (I am feeling repulsion) or 'मैं विकर्षित हूँ' (I am repelled - using the adjective form).

Summary
The word 'विकर्षण' (Vikarsan) is essential for moving beyond basic Hindi. Whether you are describing magnets pushing apart in a lab or the feeling of being repelled by a bad habit, 'विकर्षण' provides the formal and precise vocabulary needed. Example: 'समान ध्रुवों में विकर्षण होता है' (Similar poles have repulsion).
- Vikarsan means repulsion or aversion, the opposite of attraction.
- It is used in science for physical forces and in life for feelings of dislike.
- Grammatically, it is a masculine noun often used with 'hota hai' or 'paida karna'.
- It is more formal than common words for dislike like 'nafrat' or 'pasand na hona'.
Pair with Antonym
Always learn 'विकर्षण' with 'आकर्षण'. They are the two sides of the same coin in Hindi physics and philosophy.
Gender Check
Remember it's masculine! 'Vikarsan hota hai' is your mantra. Many learners mistakenly make it feminine.
Science First
If you forget the meaning, think of magnets. The 'push-away' force is 'विकर्षण'.
Not Just Hate
Don't use it for every dislike. Save it for things that feel like a natural force pushing you away.
Ejemplo
उसे कुछ प्रकार के भोजन से तीव्र विकर्षण होता है।
