Wash the doorstep or puja threshold clean with auspicious turmeric water. Mark straight horizontal baseline bounds along the step edges with chalk or rice paste.

Dip index and middle fingers simultaneously into wet rice paste (Maa Kolam). Pull straight, parallel twin lines across the threshold without lifting your hand.

Draw concentric square frames, stepped terraces, and sharp 90-degree corner junctions. Position a sacred lotus (Kamalam) or 8-pointed star in the center.

Fill the interior margins and perimeter boundary with deep red Kaavi (geru ochre). The red-and-white contrast creates an auspicious energetic barrier against negativity.
