Generally many ornaments are worned by Indian women.How many of us know its significance?

Many of us think that ornaments  are worn for traditional belief and customs. But behind that each ornaments have their own significance. This article is about that….

Why Mangalsutra or Thali?

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  we wear rings and also only in ring finger?

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. 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 the index 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  which controls the organs that is ruling the brain, thoughts and thinking. Any friction in this finger causes some disturbance in one's thoughts.

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.

Physiological Significance of Sindoor

It is interesting to note that that the application of sindoor by married women carries physiological significance too. This is so because Sindoor is prepared by mixing turmeric-lime and the metal mercury. Due to its intrinsic properties, mercury, besides controlling blood pressure also activates sexual drive. This also explains why Sindoor is prohibited for the widows. For best results, Sindoor should be applied right upto the pituitary gland where all our feelings are centered.

Why do women wear Anklets?

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!.

Why do women wear 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!

Why nose-ring or nose stead?
