"Madhubani painting uses white rice paste, turmeric, sindoor (vermillion powder) to depict tantric symbolic forms, symbols for the Mother Goddess, and motifs from nature and everyday life. Bhitti chitra or wall paintings fall under two main types-those made by the upper caste Brahmin and Kayasth women, and Dushadh paintings and mud murals made by the marginalized themes from mainstream Hinduism-the Shaiva, Vaishnav and Shakti cults. The walls of the gosain ghar or prayer room are brightly painted with myraid deities and religious folk narratives. The kohbar ghar or nuptial room is painted when there is a wedding and newly wed perform many rituals, especially facing the eastern wall, to pray for marital bliss. Festivals like chhath and Chauth chand are also occasions for doing this ritual art.Pastoral scenes are also favoured. Rites of passage from birth to death are accompanied by ritualpainting on the walls of houses-sathhudi, a ritual observed during the seventh and ninth months ofpregnancy; chatiyar puja, done on the sixthday after the birth of a child; annaprashan, to mark a child`sfirst eating of grain; akshararambh to mark a child`s entry into the world of learning; janaur, to mark thesymbolic rebirth of young Brahmin boys; marriages and deaths.
