Why do we ring the bell in a temple?
Is it to wake up the Lord? But the Lord never sleeps. Is it to let the Lord know we have come? He does not need to be told, as He is all knowing.
@Sanjay_Dixit @Aabhas24 @Aadishakti_101 @VandanaJayrajan @MissSingh04 @tripathisam2020
Is it a form of seeking permission to enter His precinct? It is a homecoming and therefore entry needs no permission. The Lord welcomes us at all times. Then why do we ring the bell?
@gopugoswami @BesuraTaansane @Aadhiraspeaks @smita_muk @iamvinitshinde @jamwal_rocky @pdkamath
The ringing of the bell produces what is regarded as an auspicious sound. It produces the sound Om, the universal name of the Lord. There should be auspiciousness within and without, to gain the vision of the Lord who is all-auspiciousness.
@OmTheReality @DharmoRakshathi @jkd18
Even while doing the ritualistic aarati, we ring the bell. It is sometimes accompanied by the auspicious sounds of the conch and other musical instruments. An added significance of ringing the bell, conch and other
@harshasherni @vivekvardhan05 @Hooda_Soniya @Sheshapatangi
instruments is that they help drowned any inauspicious or irrelevant noises and comments that might disturb or distract the worshippers in their devotional ardour, concentration and inner peace
@umeshsalaskar @youngndharmic @Dvya_RA_ThORe @Shubham21ee @JAIN_24T @khopchemein
As we start the daily ritualistic worship (pooja) we ring the bell, chanting:
Aagamaarthamtu devaanaam
gamanaarthamtu rakshasaam
Kurve ghantaaravam tatra
devataahvaahna lakshanam

@BabaIndic @Mighty__Meera @atropized_m2 @AjitsinhJagirda @SureshM46 @JIX5A @Priyamvada22S
I ring this bell indicating the invocation of divinity, So that virtuous and noble forces enter (my home and heart); and the demonic and evil forces from within and without, depart.

Meaning: O learned person I ask you about the last boundary of the earth? I ask you about nature of the fecundating power of a virile person who is mighty like a horse.
I ask about the highest pitch of the Holy speech?

Why do we do Namaste?
Indians greet each other with namaste. The two palms are placed together in front of the chest and the head bows whilst saying the word namaste. This greeting is
@Sanjay_Dixit @Aabhas24 @VandanaJayrajan @ShefVaidya @fgautier26 @_frida_most_
for all - people younger than us, of our own age, those older than friends, even strangers and us.
There are five forms of formal traditional greeting enjoined in the shaastras of which namaskaram is one.
@iamvinitshinde @MYNKBHRDWJ @brahman_kanya @_Just_A_Soul__ @JAIN_24T
This is understood as prostration but it actually refers to paying homage as we do today when we greet each other with a namaste.
Namaste could be just a casual or formal greeting, a cultural convention or an act of worship.

Sanskrit terms used by the husband for the wife were Pathni (the one who leads the husband through life), Dharmapathni (the one who guides the husband in dharma) and Sahadharmacharini

(one who moves with the husband on the path of dharma; righteousness and duty).
This is how ancient Vedic culture viewed the partnership of husband and wife.
In Rig Veda(10.85), the marriage hymn, states that the

daughter-in-law should be treated as a queen, sāmrajni, by all the family members especially the mother-in-law, husband, father-in-law.
Woman is designated as:
Aditi, because she is not dependent (Nirukta, 4/22)
