Compound of बृहस् (bṛhas, genitive singular of बृह् (bṛh, “prayer; devotion”)) +‎ पति (páti, “lord, master”). The first element originally meant "to increase, enlarge, grow" and ultimately came from Proto-Indo-Aryan *bʰŕ̥źʰ, from Proto-Indo-Iranian *bʰŕ̥ȷ́ʰ, from Proto-Indo-European *bʰerǵʰ- (“to rise, elevate”); similar to ब्रह्मन् (brahman), it went through a semantic shift from "to increase" > "to encompass" > "the encompassing one" > "the divine" > "praying, devotion (to the divine)".
