Hi
Wearing madisar way is for a very brief period of, say, an hour or two. Why make fuss. Wear and perform the ceremony. Otherwise, marriage itself is against tradition, then why follow now? Society is very much confused and become illogical.
 
Tradition is not something we take it lightly. We carry it forward and leave a mark in our society that is followed by generation. Just for a minutes is not at all acceptable. Salt goes just one teaspoon just one teaspoon are we ready to ignore or eliminate it from our food Tradition?
One madisar is very essential. Search for it and buy the ready-made one or buy a saree and give it to Mami who stitches it.
In your life this Madisar use is aplenty. Don't ignore this. A married woman when goes to the Guru or other auspicious occasion if they are in Madisar automatically it gets due value beyond who you are.
When children are getting dresses ready-made in Psnchagachcham, and also children are attair in Madisar why not a Married woman try to get one. Over the years you can get 2 or 3 if different colours. This is a must to stand with your husband on important occasions. Immediately search fir it and get it with a child's tantrum. Don't ignore it. May be not now but next time I know it should be your positive action in life.

Stitched madisar or panchakacham is not acceptable. My vadhyar told me when we were discussing this point.
When tradition is being talked about, what tradition is being followed when intercaste marriage was entered into, at the first place.
Are we not confused?

As gents, we are expected to wear Vesti - dhoti, where both ends are stitched like Kaili.
Sari and vesti should be without stitching.
 
Hi. My wife is from other caste. She is not comfortable in wearing madisar during seemantham. Can we do seemantham by wearing normal saree?
Is any ritual essential?

One of the 16 Hindu samskaras in Sanskrit is called Seemantham. It is a samskara of the developing embryo or fetus inside the womb of the expectant mother. Typically, families only commemorate the Seemantham ceremony in connection with the first pregnancy and not with future conceptions.

There are several superstitious beliefs regarding how to celebrate the event. People once thought that pregnant women were more vulnerable to “dishti,” or evil glances or attacks. During the festival, people invoke Sridevi, a manifestation of Lakshmi Devi, to fend off evil and safeguard the expectant mother.

The primary goal of the celebration is to enlist the elders’ blessings for a risk-free delivery and a healthy, long life for the expectant child.

According to science, a pregnant woman should take the best possible care of her health (both physical and emotional) to ensure the proper development of the fetus. Always keeping her upbeat and thinking positively is crucial.

Therefore, the Seemantham Ceremony & Valaikappu Function, which entails a family gathering with laughing and a rich traditional dinner, makes everyone smile and spreads happiness and joy everywhere.

It is akin to a baby shower in the rest of the world. So go ahead and celebrate it as you see fit, get the party going. People will enjoy the festivity and the child will have all the gifts when it is born.
 
Which tradition is all pervasive? Every tradition has a start date and similarly has an end date. Nothing lasts forever. So depending on time and location, traditions change.
Dasratha had 3 wives, but Rama had only one. What was or is the tradition?
Child marriage was a Tradition but was outlawed.
Similarly, Sati (burning a wife) was a common tradition, but now it is outlawed. What does the tradition get to do? I can go on and on. But my point is tradition is Human-made, and can also be destroyed by society.

Traditions are imposed by some powerful people on less powerful, or ignorant people.
We went to see Mahaprivar in Kanchi, and he ignored the hand of a widow, they said that is a tradition, but the very next year he met Indira Gandhi. So what happened to Tradition? Traditions are for ordinary people who have no means and are powerless. Rich and famous crate their own rules and traditions.
 
The person who questioned went away and we are fighting about his wife's do and don't. What a funny thing. He didn't write a line having done and a Thanks. But he is seeing the show of our discussion. What a Brahmanism.
