Vivaha paricham -5 SELECTION OF BRIDE normally the groom parents start in search of girl. This was shown to us by sri parameswara in his marriage with uma the daughter of himavan. He asked the sapta rishies to approach himavan and ask uma to give her in marriage to him by telling about his vamsa and details In the same way, we also should go in search of girl from a sanatana sampradaya family who are following sanatana dharma having brothers and with good features as per samudrika lakshana. For this the groom parents has to nominate some elders in the family to approach the girl’s family and request the parents to give their daughter as kanyadana to get upliftment of groom’s pitaras. If the other formalities of jataka and other aspects agreed then the elders has to visit the bride family on a auspicious day and invoke the pravara of the vargatrayam of groom with managala dravyas like coconuts, tambulam, phalam, turmeric, full vakkas and request them then the bride parents also recite the vargatrayam of the girl and agree to give the girl as kanya danam. This is the vaideeka procedure Nowadays we are doing it as nischayatartham inviting our relatives, offer the saree to girl, write in a paper about the acceptance and signed by both parents since we do not have belief on each other The groom may escape and jump on to another bride if he was given with more gifts Some non Brahmins offer gold rings to both bride and groom by each other which is not acceptable by vaideeka dharma
