Ashmita and Rakshith wedding








I and my family members thank all my homoeopathic faculty members like my teachers, homoeopaths, classmates, my staff my dear students from DHMC & other parts of country for coming over to all functions of my daughter wedding.

Kaniyadanam – The Kaniyadanam involves the bride sitting on the father’s lap, and being given away to the groom. The priests from both sides of the family give an elaborate introduction of the bridge and the groom’s lineage & ancestors before proceeding with the Kaniyadanam ritual.
Thirumangalyam – The climax of the entire wedding ceremony, the groom ties the knot while the bride is seated on her father’s lap. This is followed by Saptapadhi where the bride and the groom walk around the holy fire.
The wedding was again attended by all our friends and relatives who were all present until the very end of the ceremony. I owe thanks to all for taking time out of their schedules to attend the ceremony to bless the couple.

Wedding of Ashmita and Rakshith



Wedding – Red & Gold Theme – The wedding rites started off at 4.30 AM on Mar 6th, 2011 with the Ankurarpana and Varapuja ceremonies followed by the Kasi yaatrai, Maalai Maatral and Unjal ceremonies. Wedding was done in traditional Iyer wedding ceremonies.
Maalai Maatral – This interesting ceremony involved Ashmita and Rakshith exchanging red orchid garlands thrice. It was fun watching the garland exchange as it resembled something akin to a basketball match where the groom was dodging the garland.
Oonjal – The garland exchange was followed by Oonjal or the Swing ceremony, where Rakshith & Ashmita were seated in a swing and given a mix of milk & banana by the ladies on both the groom’s & the bride’s side. The ladies sing to ward off “evil eye” as the bride and groom are seated on the oonjal.
Kaniyadanam – The Kaniyadanam involves the bride sitting on the father’s lap, and being given away to the groom. The priests from both sides of the family give an elaborate introduction of the bridge and the groom’s lineage & ancestors before proceeding with the Kaniyadanam ritual.
Thirumangalyam – The climax of the entire wedding ceremony, the groom ties the knot while the bride is seated on her father’s lap. This is followed by Saptapadhi where the bride and the groom walk around the holy fire.
The wedding was again attended by all our friends and relatives who were all present until the very end of the ceremony. I owe thanks to all for taking time out of their schedules to attend the ceremony to bless the couple.

my daughter Ashmita Reception






Reception – Blue Theme – The reception decoration & garlands were all centered on the theme set by my daughter Ashmita. She defined the theme as BLUE, blue being her & Rakshith’s favourite colour. Apurva, my niece and my family then successfully executed the concept, ensuring that even the garlands and the bridal bouquet had blue flowers in them. We ensured that the theme reflected everywhere in the venue, the stage, the chairs, Rakshith & Ashmita’s attires and well the cake & the flowers. The reception was attended by everyone close to the families, right from my childhood friends, closest relatives to my professors & colleagues with over 800 people. The reception was a grand success, and I owe the success to Mr. Premkumar of Shanmuga Caterers, Mr. Sivaram of Annapurva Events and Mr. Mohanlal (Orchestra).
A universal color, Blue has a calming and soothing effect on the psyche. Blue is associated with intelligence, stability, unity and conservatism.

Life style diseases are Challenge to Homeopaths

A lifestyle is what you pay for; a life is what pays you. -- Thomas Leonard

Lifestyle diseases are a result of an inappropriate relationship of people with their environment. By 2020 Lifestyle diseases are expected to claim 7.63 million lives in India. Lifestyle diseases are different from other diseases because they are potentially preventable. In all life style disorders maintaining factors are important in prolonging the disease. The pseudo chronic disease is a one which has been influencing the individual for a prolonged duration which has been continuing in his life, that what Dr.Samuel Hahnemann says in Aphorism 77, which can be removed through improved mode of living. Early detection of the above said diseases by good general physical examination and utilizing the required modern investigation for early diagnosis.

Ashmits Pellikuturu Function




Pellikuturu Function – The Pellikuturu function started around 10.30 AM on 5th Mar, 2011 at Dhola-ri-Dhani right after the thread ceremony for the groom. My aunts, cousins and nieces & their friends were all actively involved in applying haldi & besan paste to the bride and blessing her. We were lucky to get Dhola-ri-Dhani, which truly helped us transform our vision of a perfect wedding to a reality.
The Pelliuturu function or the Haldi ceremony as it is more popularly known as, is a ceremony where the bride and the groom go through a elaborate ritual of ceremonial bath. The aim is to purify and prepare them for the wedding rites. In the olden days, this ritual was more elaborate with the bride being bathed in milk or sandal – rose scented waters but now due to time constraints these are sadly going extinct.
This was followed by Aarti where the female relatives all gave aarti to Ashmita and Rakshith to bless them.

my daughter Ashmita’s Mehendi and Sangeet ceremony





Mehendi & Sangeet – An intricate part of the weddings these days, my daughter Ashmita’s Mehendi and Sangeet ceremony was held on 3rd March 2011 at our residence, OUR NEST. Attended by a small gathering of relatives & friends (~150), the mehendi was done amidst classical Rajasthani songs & dance. My nieces and cousins visiting from the US were enthusiastic participants in the Sangeet ceremony.
The ceremony started late evening and it took around 4 hours to complete the bridal mehendi alone. Mehendi signifies the strength of love in a marriage...and there is a belief that the darker the mehendi shade, the more stronger is the love between the couple. And since music is the soul of every Indian wedding, the Sangeet ceremony is more of an entertainment for relatives & friends.
