Kesar Chandan Tika with Kumkum & Camphor for Daily Puja - 100g

Kesar Chandan Tika & Tilak — A Golden Offering for Daily Puja

There is a moment in every morning puja when fragrance becomes devotion. CHITRASHILA® Kesar Chandan Tika is crafted for that sacred moment — a traditional granular blend of chandan (sandalwood), kesar (saffron), kumkum, and camphor that honours the divine with every application. More than a tilak, it is an offering of intention and love.

This kesar chandan tilak comes in granular form, allowing you to prepare a fresh, fragrant paste with water, rosewater, or Ganga Jal before every ritual — preserving the aroma and sacred character of each ingredient.

Sacred Ingredients in Every Grain

Kesar (Saffron) — Auspiciousness in Gold

Kesar has adorned sacred offerings, deity decorations, and festive tilak across Indian temples for centuries. In this kesar chandan tilak, a touch of kesar brings a warm, uplifting fragrance and a deep association with divine grace and devotional auspiciousness.

Chandan (Sandalwood) — The Sacred Cooling Wood

The foundation of this kesar chandan tika, sandalwood is traditionally valued for its cooling feel and calming fragrance. Applied on the Ajna Chakra as a chandan tilak, it marks a moment of stillness before prayer and meditation.

Kumkum — The Sacred Mark of Devotion

Kumkum carries thousands of years of devotional significance in Hindu rituals — worn as a mark of auspiciousness, surrender, and connection to the divine feminine. Pair this blend with our kumkum powder to complete your daily tilak ritual.

Camphor — Fragrance of the Sacred Space

Camphor lends this blend its characteristic sacred fragrance. In Vedic tradition, camphor symbolises the dissolving of the ego — preparing both the devotee and the space for worship.
