How does one envisage a Hindu marriage?
Bountiful food, colorful attires, ornaments, celebrations, togetherness .However
rituals and customs, rather customs undermine the whole marriage. What leads to
a perfect arranged marriage are months and sometimes years of match making, a
custom that is often mentally deteriorating on girls especially on ones who
embody ‘Manglik or Mangal dosh’.
Being a Manglik becomes a big tussle in the settlement of marriage of a
girl or a boy because it is considered to be the most important parameter in
match-making. Marriages, at times, get abnormally delayed due to such problems.
Matching the stars –
Astrology is an integral part of the tradition
of arranging marriages, it goes back to the days of Vedic scripts, and the
purpose is solely to avoid the pain and trouble of joining ties with an
unknown.’ Manglik dosh’ is one of the most dreaded drawbacks in the Vedic
chart. Being a Manglik on both side
of the gender can add to the age of marriage of the couples.
Who is a Manglik?
If the planet Mars is
in some specific places in the house of their lunar chart then the individual
has embodied ‘Manglik dosh’ in
him/her. Being a Manglik depends upon the planetary
position of the native in his/her Janma
Kundali.
Legend has it that the power inherent in
Vedic astrology understands masculine and feminine energies of relationships in
matchmaking. When correctly understood, a clear picture of the relationship's
future comes into focus. The kind and success of marriage depends upon the
strength and position of planets.
Mystifying a Manglik:
Some popular myths:
· Death of the husband or a close relative whom
the Manglik girl ties the knot to.
· Born on a Tuesday then you are naturally a Manglik and you are ruled by the planet Mars.
· A manglik girl is supposed to
marry a tree before actually marrying a man.
As per astrologers
the effects of Manglik Dosh can be negated with the help of
astrological remedies with the application of Poojas, Mantras,
Gemstones and Charities. And the remedies differ from individual to individual
depending upon the horoscopes.
Popularly disbelieved - Manglik theory for
some strange reasons is only applicable on girls and enforces a belief that a Manglik girl can be responsible for her
husband’s death. And girls are always blamed for anything that goes wrong in
the life after marriage. Strange customs!
Thanks to some unskilled
and improbable astrologers, belief in this science has been sinking, lack of
clarity and understanding on this subject has made people ward off something
less unscientific and irrational.
