Balancing of Earthen Pots by the Bride
The balancing of earthen pots by the bride is a very interesting post wedding ritual which is brought in action by the grooms family when the newly married has come home. This is a very ancient practice among the Bihari's who still follow this tradition as a part of fun. Though the main significance behind the balancing of the earthern pot is to see how well the daughter- in- law can adjust to her new family and the responsibilities of the new life. Once the bride enters the house the mother -in- law places an earthen pot on the bride's head.
