Sadapunya (सदापुण्य, IAST: Sadāpuṇya) is a Sanskrit-origin Hindu boy-name meaning “He who is eternally auspicious and ever-meritorious”. From sadā (always, eternally) and puṇya (holy, meritorious, auspicious), this name declares that Viṣṇu's very being is the inexhaustible, timeless source of all sacred merit.
Meaning, etymology & significance
Sadā means always or at all times without exception, and puṇya is a rich Sanskrit term encompassing holiness, virtue, merit, and auspiciousness. The compound thus affirms that Viṣṇu does not merely perform virtuous acts—He is puṇya in His eternal essence, the fountainhead from which all merit in the universe flows. Even a moment's remembrance of His name is held by devotional tradition to bestow profound spiritual benefit.
This epithet of Viṣṇu underscores the Vaiṣṇava teaching that divine remembrance (smaraṇa) itself is the highest form of meritorious action. Sadāpuṇya is a graceful and meaningful given name for a boy, pronounced sa-DAA-pun-ya.
Scriptural source
Sadapunya appears in the Vishnu Sahasranama, among the sacred names of Vishnu.
