Over the centuries, the shankha was adopted as one of the divine symbols of Hinduism. Vishnu holding the conch represents him as the god of sound.Brahma Vaivarta Purana declares that shankha is the residence of both Lakshmi and Vishnu,bathing by the waters led through a shankha is considered as like bathing with all holy waters at once. Sankha Sadma Purana declares that bathing an image of Vishnu with cow milk is as virtuous as performing a million yajnas (fire sacrifices), and bathing Vishnu with Ganges river water frees one from the cycle of births.It further says "while the mere sight of the conch (shankha) dispels all sins as the Sun dispels the fog,why talk of its worship?" Padma Purana asserts the same effect of bathing Vishnu by Ganges water and milkand further adds doing so avoids evil,pouring water from a shankha on one's own head before a Vishnu image is equivalent to bathing in the pious Ganges river.

In Buddhism, the conch shell has been incorporated as one of the eight auspicious symbols, also called Ashtamangala.
