What is the importance of giving yellow rice or worshiped Akshat
The rice (Akshat) which is used in the worship of God is considered sacred and is colored with turmeric to make it yellow. This yellow rice is also used as an invitation for any auspicious work. For example, in marriages, religious rituals etc., yellow Akshat was given along with the invitation card which is considered very sacred. Now, invitations are being given from Ayodhya for the life consecration ceremony of Lord Shri Ram on 22nd January only by giving yellow Akshat.
