Hindu Marriage
Hindu Marriage
A Hindu marriage is a sacred union between two individuals who commit to each other for life. It is considered to be one of the most important sacraments in Hinduism.
In Hindu culture, marriages are arranged by the families of the bride and groom. The wedding ceremony involves several rituals and traditions, which may vary depending on the region and community.
The most common wedding rituals include the Kanyadaan ceremony, in which the bride’s father gives her hand in marriage to the groom; the Saptapadi, where the bride and groom take seven steps together around the sacred fire, representing the seven promises they make to each other; and the Sindoor Daan, where the groom applies sindoor (vermilion powder) to the parting of the bride’s hair, symbolizing the bond between husband and wife.
Hindu marriages are seen as a lifelong commitment, and divorce is not encouraged. In cases of serious issues, couples are advised to seek counseling and work towards resolving their differences.
