WHY OUR CULTURES ARE...(Science behind indians)

Hindu Rituals and Practices 

A total number of 36 kinds or Ornamental jewellery is worn by Devi.Why is the ornament woven by her mentioned, the significance of ornaments. many of you have been asking about this and why we insists on wearing them.It is not only our traditions and custom but it bears significance. In this context I would say the ornaments are adorned on her for two reasons.One is explain to us the significance for wearing them and to the rishis and sages she implies a different meaning.Let us look at both the aspect.

Why do women wear Anklets?

Next the ornament known as kolusu in Tamil, Ghungru in Hindi, which is known as Anklets in English. It is widely believed that by wearing this, one's energy is not wasted but re-vibrated back to one's own body. Hip Belt called Oddiyaanam is made of Silver, but the usage of this is not common. It is very particularly used to control women from getting fatter and to avoid flabs in hip and pot belly. Since no women uses these days this ornament, one can see the results that is visible!.



From the body level, all sorts of Gold ornament is used.



Each part of human body is divided into two parts - Upper and lower level. In the lower part (i.e. below naval) they used all silver made items, wherein in the upper portion they used Gold made ornaments. Chain, Necklace, Pendants are used with decorative passions, stones and designs. 

Why Mangalsutra or Thali?

Every married women used to get a Mangalsutra, which is known as Thali in Tamil and Thirumangalyam amongst srivaishnavas. This is mostly made in gold as an identifiable mark for married women. This too is believed to regularize a women's blood circulation. This is also said to control the body pressure levels to a maximum extent, as Indian women tend to work hard, more than her male counterpart. The most important thing to note about this Thirumangalyam is, that it should always be hidden or covered in the inner garments. Just because of the constant friction of the metal gold touching the body portion directly, the effect will be more to gain the said benefits. However, if the same is worn outside the clothes and making it visible to everyone, then the effect is reduced. That's why it is always advisable to wear the Thirumangalyam known as Thali or Mangalsutra inside and not to show off.

Why do women wear ring on their toe?

Metti worn by married women is usually made of silver. This is a ring with two or three line rounds, worn in their second finger from toe. By wearing this in both feet, it is believed, that their Menstrual cycle course is regularized with even intervals. This gives good scope for conceiving to married women. Also it is said just because that particular nerve in the second finger from toe, also connects the uterus and passes through heart. Because of this, the constant friction caused while walking and doing all sorts of chores during a day, it revitalizes the productivity organs. Silver being a good conductor, it also absorbs the energy from the polar energies from the earth and passes it to the body, thus refreshing whole body system.

Now let us see the next item - Ear Stead.

This ornament is mostly made of Gold with innumerable designs and fashions. Some in Gold with stones and some with plain Gold designs. This is considered to be the most important ornament and from childhood days Hindu girls are given this ornament.



The boys too wear it from the age of 7 years.Human anatomy, a precise location of parts in our body, was an easy accessible subject for the astrologers and Brahmans in those days. They found out that half of the problem occurring for human body is either because of renal failure or of bowel not cleared daily. And rest half of is by food habits and dieted propositions. And they easily got the link, that an important nerve connecting the Brain, Cervical and Kidney is passing through a persons right ear and if the pressure there could be controlled, then the kidney functioning can be just maintained and protected from damages.



Also, only at the age of 7 the kidney bladder starts functioning and till then the bladder doesn't grow fully. Another most important factor is that human beings brain/memory cell expansion too begins at the age of 7 only. That's why one cannot remember clearly what took place during the age of 4/5/6 but can mostly remember things after 7 years of age!



So let us see the next precious item called Bangles.

Normally the wrist portion is in constant activation on any human. Also the pulse beat in this portion is mostly checked for all sort of ailments. Even though, pulse beat is counted from the wrist, the heart beat ratio too, is taken for checking one's health conditions. The Bangles used by women are normally in the wrist part of ones hand and its constant friction increases the blood circulation level. Further more the electricity passing out through outer skin is again reverted to one's own body because of the ring shaped bangles, which has no ends to pass the energy outside but to send it back to the body. This way a women gains her strength which is presumably wasted otherwise. So the ancient Hindus gave shape to this item called Bangles and later it got molded in to many shapes and designs to add more attraction and beautification.

Why nose-ring or nose stead?

The next item is a piece of stead-like ornament worn by women in their nose, commonly known as nose-ring and nose stead. Though it is mainly used for beautifying women, the in-depth meaning can't be termed as unfound myth. It is considered as a breath regularizing and some say it is just to eliminate the poison coming out while exhaling carbon.



Now, for the finger rings!

In every part of the globe, this ring is mainly used during betrothal and marriages, thus signifying that the person, is a married person. The ring finger is most appropriately used to wear this ring. In ancient India, they classified the significance of each finger that controls or is in anyway connected to each part of one's body and the brain.

The Thumb in both hands are believed to be connected to the brain neurons/nerves which connects the sexual organs. And this finger is identified with planet Venus, The Goddess of Love. Any metallic friction in the body kindles specific brain neurons. So as to avoid frequent frictions in a specific part, they avoided wearing any ornaments in the Thumbs. the second finger from Thumb called the index finger, is identified with planet Jupiter. This finger's nerves are connected to the brain, in its learning capacitor neurons.So blocking of this nerve will hinder the thought process.Then the Middle finger. It is said that it's nerve is passing through the brain divider line and if any metallic friction is here, then the confusion is caused in the brain whether the signal given is from left or right side of the brain. When some important decision is to be taken and if the confusion prevails because of wearing a ring in the middle finger, then it is likely to be the wrong decision. To avoid this, generally people never wore nor wear any rings in this middle finger.The most vital is its function and connectivity, the fourth finger from the Thumb, known as the ring finger is identified with the Star-Sun. It is widely believed, that the nerve passing through this finger is evenly spread to the entire brain neuron cells and any frequent metallic friction caused in this finger is very good for one's health. It also improves one's general capacity in handling his/her life with ease and confidence. That's why all over the world, they use gold rings for men and women, very commonly in this finger.

Specifically during engagements and marriages. It also signifies one's marital status just at a look. I sincerely suggest every one to wear a gold ring in this finger so that he/she prospers through out their life.Finally, the little finger. This finger is identified with planet Mercury which controls the organs that is ruling the brain, thoughts and thinking. Any friction in this finger causes some disturbance in one's thoughts. THE SPIRITUAL IMPACT OF THESE ORNAMENTS.

the head ornaments like the rakkadi and sutti is the Sincerity and truthfulness.everyone appreciates a sincere and a truthful person. so she wears that as her topmost ornament.next is the ear steads.the two ear steads are the dance and drama which she adores.The nose ring and the bulakku on her nose implies her love for music .so be it the besari or the mukuthi the forms of it are different but the ornament remains the same like music.The next is her favourite malas and chains which are none other the devotees themselves.She honours them by wearing them considering them as her precious jewels. Next is the arm bands are the integrity of a person which is the strength of a person that is why she wears them on her arms.The bangles she wears are the sympathy and empathy which one should possess.The waist band she wears,is the quality she everyone should have it is altruism. Think of others without thinking of yourself. Do good things for people without expecting something in return for yourself.The next one is the anklets which reminds everyone to be Magnanimous, courteous. The metti she wears reminds everyone to leave their ego and be compassionate to the people around them.To top everything is the crown she wears, which symbolizes the wisdom one should have, the wisdom that is inside you.
