Description
The book is based on oriental marriage culture & custom. It has 14 chapters dealing customs, beliefs and traditions. It disapproves commercial transaction rather the couple take solemn oath before fire god as witness. I thought to render our oriental system of marriage into English version so that our global family would be able to appreciate our rich system of perennial wedlock. It is a solemn substructure of event celebrated to cement correlation between a man and a woman changing for the cause of hermaphrodite. The corpus of the book argues for prayer to fire god and water during wedding rite. Because fire is a divine witness under watchful eyes. Physically the fire being the light of the sun illumines the universe. Spiritually it is a Divine energy to ward off nescience. It is life giver through violet rays and agricultural practices. And it is life taker through engulfing the negative materials as punishment or sanctification. If one goes through all the chapters of the book one might understand the solemn union as co-equal partners providing life-long dignity & affinity.Fire has productive ends for human survival such as cooking radioactive therapy and agricultural benefits. Flames of passion & love have been gestured through the present system. Circumambulation around the fire (Masculine) water (feminine) in the book indicates radiant responsibilities to the society.
