Since Ancient times Indian women wear a sacred thread
smeared with turmeric paste to signify auspiciousness and holiness of the
sacred ties of matrimony. As time passed, the sacred thread was immortalised in
silver and gold as women were seen as the keeper of wealth in the household.
The meaning of mangalsutra is mangal meaning auspicious and sutra meaning
thread. The north Indian variety of mangalsutra features black beads threaded
onto silver or gold threads with a tanmaniya or pendant. In South India, the
mangalsutra or thali is a thick gold chain with a pendant featuring a Goddess
or the family's ancestral deity.
The string of black beads on the mangalsutra wards off evil
and protects the married couple, especially the husband's life. Many Indian
brides feel that taking off the mangalsutra brings bad luck on their husbands.
Among Indians, marriage is not only the union between two people but the
bonding of two families. The spiritual significance of the rows of silver ropes
strung with black beads with silver stoppers or links at regular intervals
helps the bride remember that she's the main reason two families have bonded.
A silver mangalsutrawith gold plating is believed to normalise a women's blood flow and
regulate health, as Indian women tend to work harder than her husband would in
most cases. Vedic authorities tell us that the mangalsutra must be hidden from
sight or covered by the inner garments as the constant friction of the silver
touching the body will affect the body positively. By wearing the sacred
necklace outside for flaunting to everyone will not give the expected benefit
and even invite the evil eye.
Modern influences has allowed mangalsutras to go from
traditional symbols of marriage to stylish markers of a woman's social status.
While many married women travel throughout India and abroad, on vacations or
due to work, either accompanied by their husbands or by themselves, it's become
mandatory to wear a mangalsutra that is recognized by most Indians.
