I would like to know it, too (what these words of the mantra mean
rather than what they are in the language they are spoken in), and
something more - Hindu beliefs about the mantras on wedding:
- is it required a man only to say a mantra or woman too?
- what are requirements for the mantra saying validity, or
for marriage validity, especially when one person is of
different religion - is marriage recognized as valid by
Hindu? are there requirements about intentions?
- what do Hindu believe about results of such a mantra?
