I am new to this site. I would like to share my nose pierced experience which is because of custom committed by my mother & grandma. I am having 2 elder brothers & 2 younger sisters. when I was born, my parents were expecting a girl baby , but they got a boy i.e., me for which they were unhappy & my mother was crying for not having a daughter. My mother & grandma after 6 months went to the durga matha temple and offered prayer & committed a vow that if she gives birth to a girl in her next delivery,she will pierce the ears,nose & put the ornaments permanently to her third son.After 2 1/2 years my mother gave birth to twin girl babies.And every body were happy in the family.
And my grandma reminded the vow offered by my mother to goddess durga matha which was postponed due to my young age & decided to fulfill the offer after 15 years.This vow committed my family members was not known to me
until they informed me at the age of 18 years.When I heard of piercing I was surprised & opposed.Our family members convinced me to fulfill the vow given by my mother for which I agreed to fulfill the offer after my degree.And they informed me to allow my hair to grow for one year before piercing function.
Last April '2011 I completed my BBm degree. On 10-8-2011 a tailor was called to take the measurement to stitch blouse for me. The piercing function was fixed on 18-08-2011 by inviting relatives.
On 10-8-11 early morning I took a bath & wore a dothi & avlli, as per the pundit I sat before the photo of Goddess durga matha for one hour where few ladies performed some ritual by putting haldi & kumkum on my face & inserted a dozen bangles in my both hands & fixed some flowers on my head. On the fixed time of 2 ladies came to me with needle inserted with 4 layer black thread. My mother & grandma came to me to check the place /mark of piercing on nose & ears. First they pierced my both ears and tied the thread & then they pierced my both side of the nose and tied the thread. In this process I cried like any thing but in vain.And they took a oath from me that I will not close this piercing my life time. Then they took me to a room and made to wear silk saree, blouse with all ladies under garments. And again I was made to sit before relatives for another 1 hour. At that time I was gifted a anklet pair and the presenter put to my ankle.The pundit performed some ritual during this time I got a around 9 sarees as gift from my relatives. Then the lady who pierced told to be in the thread for 21 days after that the ear ornament & nose stud will be inserted. And the pundit told to be wearing saree for 101 days from the day of wearing the ornament because the vow offerd was delayed by years so you are supposed to wear saree. Every body in the family was happy especially my grandma, she came to me and consoled me. All the invitees had the lunch and went Later I sat separately and and started crying because of the pain of the piercing.
Later I started to wear the saree with blouse continuosly, on 7-9-11 being 21st day the pierced ladies & pundit came.And the ladies removed the ear thread and put each diamond stud on both ears & after an hour they removed the left nose thread and replaced a 3 diamond stud & then removed the thread on right side nose & replaced with 7 stone diamond stud.In this process also I suffered a lot of pain and shouted on deaf ears.Again I was made to wear a new silk saree and sat before the few invitees. Later few ladies performed some rituals & the pundit again took a oath that I will wear the saree & be in the saree for 101 days from today i.e.,7-9-11 to 16-12-11.And I should not remove the ear & nose ornaments in my life time.
Today is the 58th day still I am in saree after another 43 days I will be free from saree but I am not free from the ear & nose stud, which I should be wearing until my life time as this is the vow
