FROM THE HOUSE OF ARADHYAKRIPA
FRAGRANCE FOR THE DIVINE
CRAFTED FOR DEVOTION
Made right for Puja

In Hindu tradition, gandha (fragrance) is a core part of the Shodasha Upachāra (16-step ritual service), not just a room freshener.

Lighting incense is preparing a samagri (offering) for the deity. This offering serves two purposes: to please the deity and to create a sāttvik (pure, divine) atmosphere.

This sacred fragrance calms the devotee's mind, removes distractions, and aids focus for dhyāna (meditation) and japa.

Our Promise: Clean & Sacred

Bamboo-Free

In many paramparās, bamboo (baans) is tied to family/lineage and is not offered to fire. Also, burning bamboo can release silica-rich particulate that’s harsh for indoor air, so our incense is bamboo-free.

Charcoal-Free

Pūjā fire has always favoured natural woods/resins, not industrial charcoal. Charcoal smoke raises indoor PM 2.5 & toxic compounds, so we keep it out; gentler for your home mandir and lungs.

Guided by Gandha-Shāstra

Our blends are inspired by Gandhaśāstra/Gandhayukti-classical Indian knowledge on preparing perfumes and aromatic offerings; so the fragrance you offer follows authentic knowledge, not guesswork.

Temple Flower Re-use

We respectfully upcycle temple-offered flowers, giving sacred petals a second life as incense. It honors the offering and helps keep flowers, and their pesticide residue, out of our rivers.

IFRA Approved Fragrances

We choose fragrance inputs that follow IFRA Standards, the global benchmark for safe use of fragrance materials, so your worship space stays śuddha and breathe-safe by design.

मौलौ गङ्गा शशाङ्कौ करचरणतले शीतलाङ्गा भुजङ्गाः। वामे भागे दयार्द्रा हिमगिरि दुहिता चन्दनं सर्वगात्रम्॥

This śloka describes the Lord's divine coolness. “On His head are the cool Ganga and moon; on his hands and feet, the cool serpents; on his left, the compassionate daughter of the cold-mountain (Parvati); and Chandanam Sarvagātram—His entire body is smeared with cooling Sandalwood paste.” And why Chandan? Because Shiva is the ultimate ascetic, the Lord of Dhyāna (meditation). This sāttvik fragrance calms the fires of the mind, just as it cools the Lord's body. Offering Chandan is to mirror the Lord's own adornment; it stills our agitation and prepares the mind to become a silent, worthy space for his presence.
