Bengali Wedding Special:
SHUBO DRISHTI: (Auspicious sight)
In bengali before the bride & the groom are allowed to see each other, a ritual is followed called Shubo Drishti. The bride holds a pair of betel leaf in front of her eyes. Once the priest who conducts the marriage allows them to see each other the bride removes the betel leaf & the first sight fells upon her groom. they both are supposed to stare for a couple of seconds. this ritual is accompanied by the auspicious "Ullur" & by blowing the conch shell by the audience. According to me this ritual is very auspicious & is the first step of the new journey. This ritual shows that when both the souls will be united they will only care , love & respect each other. The first glance of their respective partners indeed germinates the seed of love & gradually along with the rituals it gets developed & through the trust, care & respect the love will be nurtured in the future !!
