Shesha (), also known by his epithets Sheshanaga () and Adishesha (), is a serpentine demigod (naga) and king of the serpents (Nagaraja), as well as a primordial being of creation in Hinduism.

He is sometimes referred to as Ananta () or Ananta Shesha ().
The Narayana form of Vishnu is often depicted as resting on Shesha, accompanied by his consort Lakshmi, who is considered as one of the two mounts of Vishnu alongside Garuda. Shesha is said to have descended upon Earth in the following human forms or incarnations: Lakshmana, brother of Vishnu's incarnation Rama during the Treta Yuga, and according to some traditions, as Balarama, brother of Vishnu's incarnation Krishna during the Dwapar Yuga. According to the Mahabharata (Adi Parva), his father was Kashyapa and his mother Kadru, though in other accounts, he is usually a primordial being created by Vishnu.
