• About the Product
This spiritual offering, known as sandalwood paste, is also referred to by names such as chandan, sandhanam, or tikka paste. It is widely used in rituals and temple worship to adorn the forehead and deities with a touch of sacredness. Rooted in ancient practices, this paste carries cooling properties and a divine aroma, symbolizing purity and surrender in every act of worship.
• Why Sandhanam Is Applied on the Forehead: The space between the eyebrows, often called the third eye or Ajna Chakra, is considered a powerful spiritual center. Applying sandalwood or chandan in this area is believed to calm mental disturbances and enhance inner awareness. The tikka paste is also a mark of humility and devotion, helping one remain grounded during poojas and drawing divine protection against distractions and negativity.
• In regions like Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, and Andhra Pradesh, sandhanam plays a central role in daily pooja and temple worship. In the USA, it is cherished by devotees during personal spiritual routines and in community temple ceremonies. Both Vaishnavite and Shaivite traditions honor their use, recognizing it as a sacred link between the worshipper and the divine.
• Usage and Applications
The tikka paste is used for applying tilaks on the forehead during regular morning prayers, during deity decoration, and on special occasions such as Ekadasi, Shivratri, and Vaikunta Ekadasi. It is often used for applying tilak on guests during poojas and functions. The sandhanam is also offered to deities like Vishnu, Shiva, and Lakshmi as a mark of love and respect in alankaram practices.
• Storage and Preservation
To maintain the freshness of chandan, store it in a dry, airtight container away from direct heat or sunlight. For infrequent use, refrigeration may help extend its life. Use a clean applicator or spoon to prevent impurities from entering the container and to preserve the sanctity of the paste.
• This sacred paste is commonly used during devotional worship of Vishnu, Rama, and Venkateswara. Applying sandhanam during Fridays, temple festivals, and chanting sessions is said to purify the soul and invite blessings. Its role in religious ceremonies adds to the spiritual richness of every offering.
