Shrishtapujita (शिष्टपूजिता, IAST: Śiṣṭapūjitā) is a Sanskrit-origin Hindu girl-name meaning “She who is worshipped by the righteous and virtuous”. From 'śiṣṭa' (the virtuous, the disciplined) and 'pūjitā' (worshipped, honored, feminine past participle of 'pūj'), this name declares that the truly refined and devout are Lalitha's most devoted worshippers.
Meaning, etymology & significance
The root 'pūj' means to worship, to honor with reverence, and 'pūjitā' as a feminine past participle means 'she who is worshipped.' Combined with 'śiṣṭa,' the name beautifully indicates that the Goddess is most purely revered by those of upright conduct and refined spiritual sensibility. It honors both the Goddess and the quality of the devotee.
Śiṣṭapūjitā appears in the Lalitha Sahasranāma as a testament to the Goddess's honored place among righteous communities. Pronounced shish-ta-poo-JI-taa, it is a traditional name occasionally given to girls in devout families.
Scriptural source
Shrishtapujita appears in the Lalitha Sahasranama, among the sacred names of Lalitha.
