Mithila Wedding Rituals
मिथिला विवाह संस्कार
From sagun to bidai — the sacred steps of a Mithila wedding.
सगुन सँ विदाई धरि — मिथिला विवाहक पवित्र चरण।
Saurath Sabha connection
सौरथ सभा सँ जुड़ाव
Mithila weddings follow a **fixed sequence of rituals** over several days. The historic Saurath Sabha in Madhubani district was once the world's largest marriage assembly — these words are still used in every village wedding.
मिथिला विवाह कई दिन धरि **निश्चित संस्कार** सँ होइत अछि। मधुबनीक सौरथ सभा कभी विश्वक सबसँ बड़ विवाह सभा रहल — ए शब्द आजो ग्राम विवाह मे प्रयोग होइत अछि।
