Mangal Sutra-
.
.
.
In Hindu traditions and culture, a woman has to wear five signs of marital status – the Mangalsutra, toe rings, Kumkum, bangles and a nose ring. Of these five, Mangalsutra is the most important. The word ‘mangal’ means sacred and ‘sutra’ means thread – therefore, Mangalsutra implies ‘a sacred thread’. This concept of wearing Mangalsutra is believed to have started in South India, where it is called thaaley or thali or mangalyam. Traditionally it was a yellow thread smeared with turmeric paste, which was tied in three knots around the bride’s neck. However, with changing times, it evolved with black and golden beads on the thread, and is now worn as a necklace.
The Hindu culture also believes that a woman wearing a Mangalsutra, should never part with it until her husband’s death. And if the thread of the Mangalsutra breaks for some reason, it is considered to be a bad omen.
