No attempt has been made here to reproduce the mantras in original Sanskrit or Anglicised version, as it will only confuse readers who do not have knowledge of Sanskrit.
The very first ritual is started with mantras soliciting the bride Kanyavaran[am]. Sequence of events following this are:. Here a water pot Kalasa is established and waters of the sacred rivers and all the gods and goddesses including, Thrimurthis and Varuna, are invoked in it. The girl takes a symbolic bath with this Holy water Kalasa Pooja ;. Author's Note: The order in which 5 to 9 are performed has changed over a period of time and now Kasi Yatra and Maalai Matral are done before Oonjal.
Kanyaadhaanam Giving away the bride :. This is an important ritual wherein the girl is gifted away to the BG's family; B loses her family identity completely. Even the Gothram to which B belongs till marriage is changed to that of the boy. At that time, BG recites a mantra which says:.
He then takes a mixed liquid made of honey and curd and sometimes ghee is added to this. Then BG looks at B directly and prays to the gods Devas to protect B from all defects and deficiencies in word, thought and deed and recites mantras addressed to B by which he expects B to look beautiful, be loving to her husband and his family, be of good heart and do good things, be pious, protect the animals and the family of BG, and get good children.
He then recites another mantra which removes destroys all bad qualities in her. Placing Yoke on the Head of B:. B's father makes B to sit on his lap. BG places a rounded Dharbha I and on that places a small replica of a wooden yoke.
When he places the right end of the yoke, he recites a mantra to indicate the following meaning. He then places gold coins on the holes of the yoke and pours Holy water in one of the holes reciting a mantra with this meaning:. Let the Holy water purify you and bring happiness to you. You can thereafter offer your body to your husband.
Mangal a Snaan am :. Thereafter, B is symbolically given a bath in Holy waters with 5 mantras which seek Gods blessings to give B purity, happiness, closeness and understanding with husband, and good company. Koorai Wedding Saree:. The wedding saree is worn specially for the marriage ceremony. The type and colour of the saree depend upon family custom. It is usually in red arakku colour. It is given to B with a mantra by the priest.
After B comes back wearing the saree, BG ties a rope made of Darbai around her waist with a mantra which says: "With a good heart and praying for good children, long life for the husband and good health, B is sitting near Agni. Tying this rope I take her to the sacred wedding ceremonies.
He, then, holds the right hand of B and takes her to a carpet spread near the Agni and recites mantras to indicate and acknowledge the boon given by Soman, Gandharvan and Agni in giving her strength, beauty, and youth to B for his enjoyment. Mangalya Dhaaran am :. In South Indian Brahmin families, Mangalya Dhaaranam is considered to be the most important ceremony.
Though there is no special mantra for this, the BG recites the following sloka:. The meaning is: "This yellow rope is managala suthram. This will help my longevity. I shall now tie this rope in your neck. I pray you live happily for a hundred years. With this sloka, he ties the rope around B's neck and puts two knots in it. The third knot is usually made by BG's sister.
The next two rituals namely Panigrahanam and Sapthapathi are very important for all Hindu marriages:. Panigrahan am :. After Mangalyadharanam , BG lowers his right hand and catches B's right hand with all the fingers together. Four mantras are recited at that time, to convey the following:. I hold your hand to keep you with me to raise good children and till you become old. Devatas including Indra have offered you to me to become the Lady in charge of the house.
Oh, Goddess Saraswathi, you should protect us well. We will offer our oblations to you before all the creatures of this world. Let the Vayu God who cleanseth and pervades all directions and corners, and who holds Gold in his hand and is the counterpart of Agni, unite you with me in mind and thought. After this, Sapthapathi is performed. The bridegroom BG gets up from the seat holding the right hand of the bride B.
He then goes round the Holy Fire Agni from the right side, by lifting the right feet of B step by step. This is done for seven steps. With each step, he recites a mantra addressed to B, with the following meaning. Step 2. To give you excellent health and energy. Step 3. To make you perform your vrithas rituals as ordained in Vedas, during your life time. Step 4. To give you happiness in life. Step 5. To make your cows and good animals to grow in strength and in numbers.
Step 6. To make all the seasons be beneficial to you. Step 7. To make the homams sacrifices to be done in Holy Fire to be performed by you in your life as ordained in Vedas, successful and free from hindrances. Obviously, the idea behind this is to pray to Lord Vishnu, the protector of life, for his blessings in marital life.
BG then recites a mantra to convey the following meaning:. I too have become your friend now. I will never discord this friendship and you should not also do that.
Let us be together always. Let us resolve to do things in life in the same manner and tread the same path. Let us lead a life by liking and loving each other, having good heart and thoughts, and enjoying the food and our strong points together. Let us have undivided opinions. We will perform the vrithas united.
Let us have same and joint desires. I will be Sama one of the vedas ; you will be Rig another Veda.
