Shubh Vivah
Marriage is meant to be a very sacred union
between two people who have no intenon
of ever becoming emoonally or physically
ed to another person for the rest of
eternity. Indian weddings are very filled with
ritual and celebraon that connue for
several days. Generally anywhere between
100 to 10,000 people aend. Oen, many
of the aendees are unknown to the bride
and groom themselves. Though most Indian
marriages are arranged, some couples in
urban areas consummate "love marriages",
in which the partners decide to marry each
other without family involvement or
assistance. The tradional Indian wedding is
about two families being brought together
socially, with as much emphasis placed on
the families coming closer as the married

Many wedding customs are common among
Hindus, Jains, Sikhs, and even Muslims. They
combine local, religious and family tradions.

Wedding Tradions
Wedding tradions vary across religion,
caste, ethnicity, language, region, etc.
Tradional Indian weddings are generally
structured into prewedding ceremonies,
wedding day ceremonies (consisng of
the Baraat, the Varmala and the Satphere
(Seven Pheres), and the Vidaai. When the
marriage has been agreed upon, the
father of the bridegroom visits the
father of the bride. The day before the
expected arrival of the marriage procession,
lavish preparaons are done by the family to
receive the groom (shaadi ki tayaari) in
beauful and decorated venues, typically
farmhouses or hotel halls, where a sacrificial
fireplace called marhwa is built. Brides
decorate themselves with gold and diamond
jewellery, apply [mehndi] to colour hands
and feet, and undergo various bridal rituals,
including wearing bridal lehenga or saree.
Bridegrooms typically wear a sherwani dress
or a designer suit. To complete the marriage,
the bride and groom walk in a circle (phera)
around the sacrificial fire.
V i d a a i i s w h e n t h e b r i d e i s
formal ly sent to the groom's
household. Many songs have
immortalized this moment when
the bride leaves her 'babul ka ghar'
or father's house. According to Hindu
religious texts, Brahma created man
from the right shoulder and woman
from his le shoulder. A woman is
referred to as Vamangi or one who
is on the le side. Throughout the
marriage ceremony the bride sits
on the right side of the groom.
That is the place for strangers andacquaintances. Only aer the
Saptpadi, when the bride and
groom have exchanged marital
vows, is the wife seated on the
le side of the man. An example
of the complexity of an Indian
wedding can be seen from the
various phases of a wedding in
North India. The following events
take place in a typical Eastern
Uar Pradesh Hindu marriage.
The bride and groom are told
a b o u t t h e i r d u e s a n d
responsibilies in married life by
the priest. These vows direct the
couple to a posive path of
acon. They help in promong
marital happiness for a lifeme.

Manage beer, feel stronger
Are you, or someone you care for, struggling
with a health problem such as diabetes,
asthma, lung disease, high blood pressure,
high cholesterol, weight issues, kidneydisease, heart disease, depression, anxiety,
arthris or other health condions? It is not
always easy to manage these on our own.
We all manage our lives in various ways.
However, regardless of our coping styles,
we will all feel challenged when we find
ourselves dealing with a longterm
condion such as diabetes, arthris,
chronic pain, anxiety or depression. It can
be equally distressing when someone we
love needs our support to deal with alongterm condion.
Having a longterm condion is different
from the experience that we have when we
have an acute illness, such as a cold, a
broken bone or an infecon. These illnesses
are usually diagnosed quickly and are
treatable with rest, medicaon or surgery.

However, a longterm condion is an

diagnosed, receiving treatment,
taking medicaons, changing habits

please support our local adversers NAMASTEINDIANS 11
Self Management
The first taskof selfmanagement is to take
care of our medical condion. This refers to
the effort that is required to make medical
appointments, get to the specialist, takemedicaon and follow the advice of our
healthcare professionals. This can require
extra scheduling, me off from work,
finding support for transport and gathering
research and advice about our condion.
The second task is to keep living and do
things that we enjoy. We somemes feel
that having a longterm condion means
that we can't connue to do the things we
enjoy, or that we need to do. We sll need
to get to work, get children to school, get tothe grocery store and do all of those things
that are part of our lives. We may need to
work on feeling more comfortable to ask
others for help and we may need to modify
the way that we do things. For example, if
we love to garden but have too much pain,
we might try using a stool or a cushion to
sll do some work in the garden.
The third task is to deal with all of
the emoons related to the challenge
of having a long termcondion, or
loving someone who has a longtermcondion. It is natural to experience
such emoons such as anger, fear,
frustraon and grief when challenged
by health and mood issues. It is also
i m p o r t a n t t o r e a l i z e t h a t
relaonships are oen changed or
strained by longterm condions.
Learning how to communicate with
family and talk about our feelings is
an important step in managing our
health challenges.
When we have a longterm
condion, we not only need to
learn how to take care of
ourselves beer, but we alsoneed to find tools and strategies
to manage all of the various
aspects of our lives that are
affected by it. We are all different,
so it is up to us to experiment
and become experts on what
works for us. As soon as we begin
to take acon in our own
management plan, we begin to
feel stronger. Selfmanagement
begins when we decide to get thesupport we need to manage
