♦ Origin:
The Vedas and Puranas provide extensive evidence of the origins of chandan powder in ancient India. Since Vedic times, the Sandalwood tree (Santalum album) has been revered. Sandalwood powder was highly valued in ritualistic ceremonies, Ayurvedic medicine, and temple building. Its conversion into a fine pooja powder made it suitable for both temple worship on a large scale and individual home worship.
♦ There is great spiritual respect for sandhanam in the temple towns of Tamil Nadu, as well as in Mysuru, Karnataka, and Puri, Odisha. In South Indian customs, it is considered fortunate and is frequently used in temples like Tirupati, Chidambaram, and Rameswaram, where pooja powder is given to the gods and applied on the foreheads of the worshipers as a symbol of blessing.
♦ To make a paste, sandalwood powder is often combined with rose water or plain water and then put to idols, holy pooja objects, and the forehead. It is employed in personal meditations, homam, abhishekam, and alankaram (decoration). It aids in cooling the body, calming the mind, and purifying the environment as a sandalwood powder.
♦ Keep sandhanam away from sunshine and humidity in an airtight container in order to maintain its flavor and aroma. To preserve the powder's natural texture and aroma, always use dry spoons while handling it.
♦ The significance of sandalwood powder is enormous during Ganesh Chaturthi, Navaratri, and Vaikunta Ekadasi. Specifically, it is given to gods like Lord Vishnu, Goddess Lakshmi, and Lord Shiva, who are renowned for their affection for sandalwood. In addition, it is used in Thirumanjanam (holy bath rituals) and applied on Lord Balaji (Venkateswara).
♦ With its cooling properties and contemplative fragrance, this pooja powder is distinguished by its delicate, smooth, and naturally aromatic composition.
♦ According to legend, the scent of sandalwood is where Lord Vishnu lives. It is believed that the sages of the Treta Yuga employed chandan powder during their Yagnas in order to draw good vibrations and invite heavenly forces. Additionally, the paste stands for detachment and purity, two traits that are necessary for spiritual development.
