Shrisadopasyapadabja (श्रीसदोपास्यपादाब्ज, IAST: Śrīsadopāsyapādābja) is a Sanskrit-origin Hindu boy-name meaning “He whose lotus feet Śrī ever perpetually worships”. This compound unites śrī (Lakṣmī), sadā (always), upāsya (worthy of worship, from upa-ās), and pādābja (lotus feet, from pāda + abja), declaring that even the goddess of all fortune eternally bows in devotion at Viṣṇu's feet, affirming his supremacy over all.
Meaning, etymology & significance
The name is a multi-part tatpuruṣa compound: śrī-sadā-upāsya-pāda-abja, meaning 'he whose lotus-feet are always worshipped by Śrī.' Upāsya comes from the root ās with the prefix upa, meaning 'to sit near in reverence,' and pādābja poetically renders the Lord's feet as lotuses—symbols of purity and transcendence. The image that Lakṣmī herself never ceases worshipping Viṣṇu's feet is a profound theological statement about the hierarchy of divine grace.
This epithet from the Viṣṇu Sahasranāma tradition is primarily used in liturgical and stotra contexts rather than as a personal name, due to its elaborate compound structure. Devotees who meditate on this name contemplate the intimate devotion between Viṣṇu and Lakṣmī as the highest model of love and surrender.
