Can you believe that the aipan made at our homes on every Teej festival can be linked to Tantra Mantra. The figures made with the help of fingers with the help of rice biswar i.e. ground rice solution on ocher are called aipan.

 On auspicious occasions and festivals in Uttarakhand, it is considered auspicious to make aipan at the main entrance of houses and temples. With the help of ocher and rice biswar, the postures, backs etc. of the deities are marked in the aipan and the form of the aipan is also changed for different auspicious occasions, auspicious occasions and worship of gods. Some of which are -

 Bhadra Aipan, Navdurga Chowki, Shiv Peeth Aipan, Lakshmi Peeth Aipan, Kanyadan Chowki, Vasodhara Aipan, Lakshmi Aasan Aipan, Chamunda Hast Chowki, Birthday Chowki, Saraswati Chowki, Lakshmi Pug etc.

 Don't make the mistake of considering the app as just a line drawing. These are such Alpanas of Uttarakhand, with the help of which negative energies stay away from home. Aipan is directly related to Tantra-Mantra.

 In Europe, similar alpanas called pantograms are used to remove ghostly obstacles. In Tibet, to get rid of evil spirits, alpanas are made on the earth, which are called Kinlor in the local language. In Judaism also such Alpanas are made whose purpose is to convert negative energy into positive energy.

 It is said that life is an ocean of energy. When the soul awakens, the energy elevates life in the form of art and the importance of the power or energy of the soul has been accepted in the alpanas associated with every field.

 Aipan attracts positivity towards itself and this is probably the reason why a different enthusiasm comes in the body on seeing these alpanas.
