Why does vithoba stand on brick?
Pundalik was very pleased to see that God himself had come to meet him. He offered a brick known as veet in Marathi as an asana to the divine guest to sit. To this date the brick forms the asana of the God. And thus there he is, the Vitthal or Vishnu or Krishna, still standing on the brick Pundalik had offered him!
