Importance of Tilak
The festival of Rakshabandhan is a symbol of the unbreakable love between brother and sister. On this day, sisters tie Rakhi on the wrists of their brothers and seek blessings for their safety. Along with tying Rakhi, the tradition of applying Tilak on brother's forehead is also ancient. When a sister lovingly applies tilak on her brother's forehead, it is considered a symbol of his victory.
Use of Kumkum in Tilak
The red color of kumkum is associated with Mars. If you add a pinch of kumkum to it while applying tilak to your brother, it will bless him with energy and strength.
Importance of Akshat
Akshat, i.e. unbroken rice, is important in puja. Adding Akshat while doing Tilak to brother helps in attracting love and also blesses with prosperity.
turmeric tilak
Applying tilak mixed with turmeric on brother's forehead on Rakshabandhan brings blessings of happiness in his life. Turmeric tilak also strengthens the position of Jupiter.
vermilion tilak
On Rakshabandhan, applying vermilion mixed with tilak on brother's forehead brings blessings of Lord Ganesha. It increases mutual love and brings good fortune in life.
saffron tilak
Applying saffron tilak to your brother on Rakshabandhan prevents shortage of money in his life and makes him energetic. Use of these materials is helpful in attracting love and prosperity.
