 Kanyadaan

If we will write about Indian tradition than it become the myth because every Indian custom has some meaning and the way to do the same. The word suggests that kanyadaan is giving the daughter. A daughter is just like the paddy that grows on the different place and harvest on the different place means daughter will grow in the motherhouse and after the marriage, the husband home is the home of the daughter. In this custom the father give the bride to the groom’s hand (called hastmilap) and that time the daughter is becomes others. In this system the groom is considered as the great lord (bagman) Vishnu. There will be a shower of flowers and rice. Flowers make the life full of fragrance and rice represent the akshat means that never lost The groom takes the right hand of bride and takes the oath to take the responsibility of the bride as their beloved. It is the sad moment for the parents when their right is lost on his daughter and they will not see her in his home. So after taking the vows and ashirwad the bride started her new life of her own home.
