• Origins (History of the Product):
The idea of the mangal sutra goes back to old Hindu traditions, where it stood for the promise of marriage.

• Usage, Applications:
The thali mangalsutra is closely linked to goddesses such as Goddess Parvati, Mariamman, and local village deities during special pujas. It is given as a decorative item to the goddess as a promise during occasions like Navaratri, temple rituals, or personal prayers.
• Preservation Measures:
To keep the mangala sutra in good condition, it should be kept in a dry cloth bag to protect it from moisture. If it is made of gold plating or beads, do not let it touch perfumes or oils. Keeping it safe helps the jewelry stay shiny and maintain its meaning.

In Hindu beliefs, the mangal sutra is more than just jewelry; it is a link to divine blessings. For goddesses, wearing the mangala sutra shows her bond with Shiva or her role as the mother of all. In numerous temples, worshippers give a thali mangalsutra to ask for blessings of marital happiness, family success, and divine safety.
