Hindu Wedding Ritual - Tying the Sacred Knot Around the Fire #310358 (License: Personal Use)

This illustration depicts a pivotal moment in a Hindu wedding ceremony-the tying of the sacred knot during the Saptapadi or pheras, where the couple circles the holy fire seven times. The bride, adorned in a red saree with gold jewelry and floral garland, and the groom in a blue kurta with shawl, jointly hold the cloth tied around the fire, symbolizing unity, commitment, and shared spiritual journey. The fire (Agni) serves as the divine witness to their vows.
