One of the most important puja items in Hindu rituals is the betel leaf. The betel leaf is a symbol of freshness and prosperity. The betel leaf is also one of the items in ashtamangalya (flowers, mangala ashtaka [rice colored with turmeric], fruits, mirror, dhoti, betel leaf and betel nut, lamp and kumkum and kajal.
 
According to Skanda Purana, the betel leaf was obtained by the gods during the churning of the ocean for the nectar. Different deities reside in the betel leaf:
- Indra and Shukra are present in the top portion of the leaf.
