    Hi,

    Akshadhai means,

    'rice which we coated with turmeric powder.' I dont know from which part of India you are. But in pujas we use this. Cleared?

    Dear Krishnamma,

    Thankyou so much for the Kolam procedure. I draw the kolam but didnt know the correct procedure, will follow from now on. Thanks a ton :). Also didnt know we have to use only white flowers as i read somewhere in the net that only red flowers to be used. As i dont get flowers i use akshadhai.

    Regards,
    Premsudha

    Hi ShylaChetan,

    You have to ask your Pandit (Vadhiyar) for the correct date to start the pooja.
