Vishnu Paduka

Vishnu Padha made of copper is worshipped by Sri Vaishnavites. Worshipping the feet (otherwise called Bhagavathas) of the Lord is equivalent to worshipping the Lord himself. Vishnu Padha has all the divya ayudhas (weapons) Shri Vishnu holds in his hands and the Lotus, hence considered to be auspicious. Sipping / taking the holy water after abhisheka from the Vishnu Pada drives away all the Sins of the past, present and future. Usually during Shraardha, one Pinda is kept at the Vishnu Padha, which marks the successful completion of the Shraardha.
