About

About the Kesar (Saffron) for Pooja

Kesar for pooja is a small essential that many families like to have in the pooja box, and this pack of saffron is kept ready for tilak, havan and offerings. Saffron is traditionally used for ritual markings, in pooja, havan and yajna offerings, and at weddings and other ceremonies, as each family's tradition guides. A few strands go a long way, so it is easy to keep in the cupboard.

If it is your family's way, soak a few strands in a little water or milk before use, and keep a small bowl ready before the pooja begins. Kesar for tilak is often prepared this way, while saffron for offerings may be used differently. Close the pack after each use and store it sealed in a cool, dry place, away from light and damp.

Colour and strand size vary slightly, and ways of using kesar in ritual differ between families, so use it as yours does. Because saffron is so light, keep the pack out of drafts when opening it. You get one pack of kesar (saffron) for pooja, supplied for ritual use, not for consumption. Keep it away from children and pets. The ritual is yours. The preparation is ours.
