WEDDING HINDU

Transcript: SACRED RITUALS they are events full of symbolism, color and sacred rituals that symbolize the union between two families. These ceremonies differ greatly from the concept of western wedding and much more depending on the region, the caste and the family that celebrates them. SACRED RITUALS COUPLE COUPLE SYMBOLISM SYMBOLISM CULTURE In Hindu culture weddings symbolize a union between families rather than a mere link between a man and a woman. Ceremonial rituals begin at the same time that the parents of the bride choose a husband for their daughter. Then, the couple and their families visit together the priest, known as Brahman, who must approve the wedding, and choose the date and time of the wedding based on the position of the stars. The importance of family unity is again symbolized in a curious ritual called Barat, which occurs the day before the wedding, and in which the groom together with his family and friends makes a procession on horseback to the house of his future wife demonstrating the respect and union that will exist between both families. CULTURE CEREMONY One of the main attractions of Hindu weddings are the gowns of the bride and groom and guests at the ceremony. The groom usually wears a suit full of colorful embroideries, and the bride usually wears a red dress with gold ornaments, known as sari, although during the wedding it is normal to change several times of dress. In addition, women close to the bride paint their hands and feet with henna creating beautiful symbols and mosaics that include the groom's initials. The dress and the adornments are complemented with dozens of jewels that give a touch of grandeur and luxury to the celebration. CEREMONY PAINTING IN THE HANDS WITH HENNA PAINTING IN THE HANDS WITH HENNA SARI SARI JEWELS JEWELS RITUALS In addition to their colorful costumes, Hindu weddings are unique thanks to the rituals that make up the ceremony. These rituals have been passed down from generation to generation for more than 40 centuries and are carried out by Brahmin in Sanskrit language. All of them represent the sacred trust between the couple and seek to teach the couple to manage their future life together, fulfilling a series of objectives such as the Dharma -to comply with religious duties-, the Praja -having offspring- and the Krama -get sexual pleasure-. RITUALS FINALLY During the ceremony the assistants sit around an altar with fire and three rituals take place. The first is the Homa offering of fire, the second the Panigrahena of union between the couple and the third the Saptapadi in which the bride and groom go around the fire 7 times, sing mantras and read sacred texts. To conclude the ceremony, the groom ties a necklace of flowers on the neck of his new wife as a sign of acceptance and sprinkles red hair on his hair, indicating that she is already a married woman.
