Kodava Marriage – Respecting Maternal Family
A very close Kodava friend of mine got married recently. I am planning to write series of posts on Kodava marriage rituals. This is first one of the series. Kodavas are a warrior community and their wedding rituals involve symbolic warfare. This ritual of cutting banana shoots is to show respect to maternal family. There will be 3 sets of such cuttings ( 3,3 and 7 cuts)
1. In respect of present bride's maternal family.
2. In respect of previous bride's (in present brides maternal side) maternal family
3. In respect of present groom's maternal family
Interesting facts ….. Good to know them …. Guess you guyzzz had a great time :)
Yup. It was great fun.
