• About the Product
The Sri Padham Box, traditionally called charan paduka, represents the feet of Hindu deities and is revered as a powerful medium for daily worship and spiritual connection. Safely housed in a protective pooja box, this sacred representation is also known by names like thiruvadi, charanam, or paadam. These miniature deity feet are commonly placed on home altars and temple shelves to offer prayers, perform rituals, and seek divine grace.
Worshipping the padham of Mahalakshmi is considered a divine invitation to abundance and auspiciousness. Her charan paduka, when placed in a pooja box or at the doorway, draws the goddess’s grace into the household. Rituals involving turmeric, kumkum, and lotus flowers at her god feet help in attracting prosperity and maintaining financial harmony. Devotees chant her names at her padham, believing it strengthens the flow of wealth and spiritual richness. Her sacred feet embody fortune and family well-being when honored with sincerity and devotion.
• Origin and Spiritual Background: The worship of divine feet is deeply rooted in the philosophy of Bhakti Yoga, where complete surrender at the feet of the divine reflects the highest form of devotion. The Vedas and Puranas mention the power of meditating on the god's feet as a means to achieve liberation (moksha). Saints and sages have emphasized the paduka's role in connecting the seeker to the divine's compassionate energy.
• This sacred item holds deep devotional value in regions like Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, and Maharashtra. In the USA, many Indian spiritual households have embraced the pooja box for its cultural and devotional significance. These sacred feet are often gifted during religious functions like housewarmings, Navratri, and Varalakshmi Vratham, serving as a gesture of blessings and spiritual protection.
• Ways to Use the Padham
The charan paduka is ideal for daily pooja, festival rituals, or vratam observances. You may offer kumkum, perform archana, or conduct abhishekam during auspicious days. Devotees treat the padham as the symbolic divine form, directing their prayers and devotion to the feet as a form of humility and reverence.
• How to Store and Maintain: To uphold the sanctity of the pooja box, it is advised to keep it on an elevated platform within your home altar. When not in use, it should be covered with a clean cloth. If abhishekam is performed, clean the god's feet with pure water or gently wipe with a dry cloth. Regular care preserves its spiritual purity.
• The charan paduka is available in various deity forms, such as those representing Lord Venkateshwara, Lakshmi, Sai Baba, and Hanuman. These sacred feet are worshipped particularly on Fridays, Ekadashi, Guru Poornima, and during Navratri. Devotees believe that honoring the padham brings spiritual grounding, abundance, and divine connection into their lives.
