In this book titled “Ram Lala Nahachu” we shall read about a special ritual that is known as “NAHACHU”, which means pruning of the groom’s nails and hairs that is undertaken just prior to the main wedding ceremony. Here, Goswami Tulsidas describes this traditional rite in his unique style of melodious verses that are his hallmark, and are exceedingly charming and melodious like the rest of his compositions. These verses are sung with great enthusiasm during marriage ceremonies in Indian households, and are considered auspicious as they invoke the blessings of Lord Ram and Sita, the divine couple who were human incarnations of the Supreme Being and his Shakti.
