It is widely believed and thought that the nose is exclusively for sensual smell and breathing only. But in a well established practices, this theory manipulates, that it connects with emotional, sexual and romantic propositions too! That's what the decorative ornaments and jewels to the Nose apparently causes - not only beautifying, but also significantly adds value to the marital life as well! No doubt, it is very very attractive and can accentuate the facial uplift of women, because nose is the most prominent and overall it adds value to the face by its natural positioning. Think of a person without a nose! Yes, even Leonardo Da Vinci noted and commented that the nose, among the whole face, sets the part of a person's Character.
The occultists belief strengthen it, being the 'seat' of the sixth sense, or the focal point that emits brainwave, is located just above the upper end of one's nose! Unless a convincing reply is given, a girl from Bangalore vowed not to pierce or wear a nose ring for life time! Ooops, GESP! Similarly, many Emails I got from the visitors, asking me to explain the Hindu Practice of wearing the nose rings and stead. In the other article, under the caption of Women's favourite Ornaments, I had explained about the entire jewellery items used by the Indian women giving meaning for its significance and values. But this specific ornament known as Mukuthi in Tamil & Nath in Hindi needs a little more briefing. Hence you got this article! Nose piercing and nose rings were mentioned in olden manuscripts and Vedic Scripts, which dates back to 6000 years. In the west, nose piercing first appeared among the hippies who traveled to India in the early 1970's. It was later adopted by the Punk movement of the early 1980's as a symbol of rebellion against conservative values and ideals. The Hippies who then traveled to India in a mass scale, specifically to the western coastline and Goa, used to get this novelty items from India. It is said that Ayurvedic (The oldest Vedic scripts that refer to Medicine and part of Vedic Resources) medicine associates nostril's piercing location with the female reproductive organs. That's why you need get the ear pierced by an experienced goldsmith, who knows by touching the skin, whether or not any nerve pass through the specific portion. While piercing the ear or nose, no passing nerve system should be disturbed or wounded, hence much care has to be taken for piercing. which is divided into many chapters, states. Ayuveda, which is part of the Indian Vedic Scripts, states that Nose too linked with the female reproductive organs; accordingly the nose piercing is supposed to make childbirth easier and lessen period pain during women's natural menstrual couse and periods. Certainly, the ancient Sages and Saints had a far better mode of understanding anatomy & the human body's nature, functions, plus and minus points of daily behavioral patterns etc. And that too, without having a computer and scanners! Their advanced knowledge in every particle of this universe was the one that they had the enormous power to control everything... absolutely everything from their breath to body to mind and what not? Modern days telepathy system was conceived & practiced during the Vedic era. And to know about the human body mechanical system did they lag behind? Astonishingly, the practices of yester years bring more merits to their customs than just wondering. Even in the Bible, the nose ring gets a notable mention. In the part Genesis 24:22, Abraham requests his eldest servant to find a partner for his son Isaac; the servant found Rebekah; among the gifts he gave her was a golden ear ring. It was stated, that Shanf in colloquial word in Hebrew said to refer the "Nose Ring"!
In South Africa, this particular Jewel is displayed among the nomadic tribal of Berber and Beja, as a display of their wealth. The larger the size, it considers them as wealthy.
Also, there is a known close connection between the nose and the sexual reflexes. Believe me, the age old practice in India to predict a person's character, used to first observe the Nose of a person; it is also widely acclaimed in the "Samudrika Lakshanam" an art that studies the behavioral pattern of every individual, that points to the size, length, positioning etc. of a persons nose and predicts the character to the near accurate result. Even in the Medical terms, it is established beyond doubt, that swelling of the nasal spongy tissues and congestion of the nose occur during sexual excitement in human beings. The nasal passages of women swell, and occasionally bleed, during menstruation. Mr. Wilhelm Fliess (1858-1928 AD), an associate & close friend of Dr. Sigmund Freud, found a strange relationship between the nose and the female sexual apparatus, and held that certain gynecological complaints could be cured by cauterizing the appropriate parts of the nose.
