Aragaja pottu or Aragaja paste

Aragaja Pottu, also known as Aragaja Paste, is a traditional preparation used primarily for religious and cultural practices. Made from a blend of aromatic substances like sandalwood, herbs, and other natural ingredients, this paste is applied as a sacred mark on the forehead (pottu) or used during rituals. The paste is known for its pleasant fragrance and cooling properties. It is often applied in a circular shape on the forehead as part of daily rituals, or during special occasions and temple visits.

To use, a small amount of the Aragaja paste is taken and gently applied to the desired area. Store the paste in a cool, dry place to maintain its freshness and effectiveness.
