It is still used as a trumpet in Hindu ritual, and in the past was used as a war trumpet. The shankha is praised in Hindu scriptures as a giver of fame, longevity and prosperity, the cleanser of sin and the abode of Lakshmi, who is the goddess of wealth and consort of Vishnu. · The shankha is displayed in Hindu art in association with Vishnu. As a symbol of water, it is associated with female fertility and serpents. The shankha is one of the eight Buddhist auspicious symbols, the Ashtamangala, and in Buddhism it represents the pervasive sound of the Buddhadharma.

Simultaneously, it was used as a votive offering and as a charm to keep away the dangers of the sea.
