Why Shankha is blown as part of religious rituals in Hinduism
Blowing the Shankha, in Hinduism, holds deep spiritual significance. It symbolizes purity, positivity and the call to the divine, with Lord Vishnu's association and the legendary emergence of the 'Om' sound. The conch's sound purifies the environment and invites divine presence during religious rituals. In temples, daily rituals commence with the conch's melodious note, emphasizing its sacred role in connecting devotees with the divine. Additionally, it plays a vital role in festivals, invoking positivity and cultural traditions.
