ALL the scholars have quit the forum very recently.

Only common people like me are here now and
we have learned to get along well without much friction.

The scholars were against everything told in sasthra.

But that is beside the point. It is just to show that even if they were here now,
they will not have take up your side of the debate.

With the kind of loose living now prevalent in major cities and metropolitan cities,
"kannigai" will become a very rare commodity in the near future.

So an external reminder( that she is married to a man now, and has to be faithful to him)
in the form of a thaali is to be welcomed by all.

You may be new to the forum but you seem to be very well informed. So you can take up the issues and enlighten the others. There is no seniority here nor are any other qualifications needed to speak the truth and give correct information!

to fill up the vacuum!

i am surprised that we discuss a lot but no one really talks more facts..It would be good if some learned scholars in the site share their insights.Many are assumptions,self preferenes...
Though I am ignorant on such topics i knew few things like various sects wore Poonal.There is a holyness in it with brhma mudichu being put on the sacred thread.There is a unique distiction for MEN who are married & bachelors with the number of threads they wore.Normally for bachelors it is 3 & for married it is 6.
And from history , hindu marriages does not have mangal sutra..If my hearngs are true the main part of the marrige is called Kannika Thanam where the bride's father gives her dauter to the bridegroom by holding the hands together..it is during the ISlamic invasion, to protect ladies subjected to unkindful activities the concept of Thal was brought in to picture.There were some significance like it is close to one's chest & there is a reason for it...

I am quite new to this site & see intresting discussions.I request all members to encourage learned scholars to join this site so that it sets the right platform to share right information.

Thank You.
