  • Meaning of Kanyadaan

  • The ceremony of Kanyadaan has an essential meaning. It has been handed down from one generation to the next and has been around since the period of the Vedic scriptures. Kanyadaan, meaning giving away of a bride. This is a symbolic marriage ritual between the groom and bride’s parents.

According to Indian customs and rules, the husband is an avatar of Lord Vishnu. Goddess Lakshmi takes the form of the maiden or bride. So, the Kanyadaan ceremony is important to the bride's family on both an emotional and a religious level.

In addition, the ceremony is considered a Mahadaan, and it is typically carried out by the bride's parents. If the bride doesn't have parents, the Kanyadaan ceremony can be done by any other older family member. It means a big change in the bride's life and is a big step forward for her. With the completion of this specific ceremony, she is now legally considered to be the wife of a daughter. Kanyadaan is also done by other married people in the family, who think it is one of the best and most honorable ceremonies.

The religious texts and Vedas say that the Kanyadaan ritual takes into account all the bad things you have done in this and your past lives. Also, it cleans your soul from the inside.


How should the Kanyadaan rite be carried out?


  • In order to ensure that the Kanyadaan, which is a ceremony that is both spiritual and virtuous, is carried out in an appropriate manner, there are numerous considerations that need to be taken into account, including the following:

  • Fasting or not eating before Kanyadaan is an important and important part of the ceremony. Either the mother or someone in the family who is like a mother doesn't drink or eat until Kanyadaan. People have made a few changes to the ceremony, though. People now drink water till the Kanyadaan is finished.

  • Hasta Milap, sometimes called Kanyadaan, is the ceremony that takes place. The right hand of the bride is taken by her father and given to the groom. The groom's right hand is placed over hers, as is more customary. This is to implore him to consent wholeheartedly to his daughter becoming his spouse and accept her as his partner. Additionally, the father obtains a vow from the husband that he will treat his girl as an equal partner in his lifetime and all of his ambitions, and that he will take care of her.

  • After this, the mother of the bride pours holy water into their hands. The way the water flows makes it go through their daughter and into the groom's hand. In the end, the Kanyadaan ritual moves forward when prayers are said to the holy deities. After the sacred water, things like flower petals, fruits, betel nuts, etc. are placed on the palm of the pair. With it, Pundits chant the mantra, which marks the end of the ritual.


Last word on it


    • The wedding will continue once the Kanyadaan ceremony is over, and after the Gathbandhan, Saat Pheras, and any other ceremonies that are performed, the wedding will be finished.
      The rite is not only fortunate but also carries an important significance with it. It shows that the groom will be completely responsible for the bride after Kanyadaan.
