Seven Steps To Eternal Love


When it comes to love, we talk about marriage. When we hear a mindblowing love story, the first question that intrigues our mind is 'Were they married?'

Well, who doesn't want the Love Of Their Life to be their partner for the Seven Births?

Indian Mythology claims that when a couple is married, it is married for the next seven births, seven lifes. Romantic, isn't it?

To depict the seven births, we have seven vows in Hinduism that binds the bride and the bridegroom, and to comply with the Seven Vows, Seven Steps around the yajna are said to be having a sacred signficance

Seven Steps To Eternal Love

Our love resonates with eternal bliss,
The seven vows we want to take.
Our hearts have found their true love,
And a new path we shall partake.


We vow to remain friends lifelong (1),
To be we always and forever together (2).
We will share our joys and sorrows (4),
Through the good and bad weather.

Saat Phere in Indian Wedding



We will care for our children and parents (3),
We will never fail us or them at length.
Our bindings will preserve our wealth (5),
We shall grow together to full strength (6).


Together we will nourish each other (7).
We will be bound by the God of fire.
Are family and friends shall witness,
Our true love and traditional desire.
