Throwing Rangh

[GurdialSingh]

Waheguru ji ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh

Does anyone know the real history or relevance of throwing rangh on wedding cards/bags of sugar or on the boys side after a kurmai?

Any reference to history would be helpful

Thanks

Vaheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Vaheguru Ji Ki Fateh, it has no meaning at all. It's a cultural thing, not a Sikh thing.

Do you know the meaning/history behind why its thrown/flicked culturally?

it obviously does have a meaning, just not a meaning that's Sikhi related.

I will be honest, I do not know the meaning of this thing; (not something I've studied in great detail), but I'm not sure most people know the meaning either and just do it out of a blind-ritual.

I've never seen rang being thrown on wedding cards or at a kurmai, whether at the Gurdwara or at a venue/house.

Did u see it in India?

its definitely out of blind ritual but im trying to find the root of this ritual. its harmless really but I would still like to find out the reason behind it.

Ive seen it on pretty much every wedding card ever. its just like orange colouring in water flicked on the cards and bags of sugar.

Its not done at the Gurdwara but at the venue or house. On the kurmai before the boys side go home, the girls side flick the same orange coloured water on the boys side. They probably do it in India as well although ive never been to a wedding in India.

Sorry Paji I never seen this. Our families are Sikh, but they've never done this at any of the weddings or kurmai, so I can't comment on something that may be a ritual or done culturally.
