The Paduka Sahasra (Sanskrit: पादुकासहस्रम्, romanized: Pādukāsahasram) is a Sanskrit stotrakavya (eulogistic poem) written by the Hindu philosopher Vedanta Desika in the 14th century CE. Comprising one thousand verses,[1] the subject of the poem are the paduka (sandals) of the deity Ranganatha of Srirangam, a form of Vishnu. The verses of the poem extol and associate these sandals with those of Rama, the protagonist of the Ramayana.[2] The poem is regarded to be one of Vedanta Desika's greatest works.[3]
