Dear Sri Sunil Bhattachajya
May be held sacred.But during Srardha ceremonies it is sprinkled  on the 
floor to driveaway the evilforces too before the pithru representativeand 
Viswedhevar representative sit for the srardha meals.R.Krishnamoorthy.

Namaste,

Krisshna-tila is considered very holy. One should not spill it on the floor 
as it is said the if one puts one's foot on the Krishna-tila he has commits 
a papa, equivalent to Brahma-hatya.

Regards,
Sunil KB

I don't think Tila will cause ashoucha. I have seen black Tila is used
in Sankalpa for some Ganapati Pooja and they use Black Tila in homa
also. They won't wash the hands afterwards.

praNAms
Hare Krishna

I did not say use of krishna tila itself causes ashoucha. For that matter
main dravya for the rudra hOma is Ajya mishrita tila vreehi.   I just
said, after the AjyAhuti to rudra, mantrOkta devata-s, pitrus, (like in
jayAdi hOma in yajurvedeeya agnimukha) we would wash our hands by saying
apa upa sprushya. I thought reason for this is rudra is smashANa vAsi. I
heard that some orthodox srivaishNava-s, if they accidentally have the
shiva linga darshana or shiva temple, immediately they go home and take
bath as they have seen the smashANavAsi rudra :-)) But I donot know how
far it is true.

Hari Hari Hari Bol!!!
bhaskar
