✦ FAQs ✦
Q. Is 4-night rule followed today?
Yes in traditional families. Modern couples decide personally. Shastric purpose — self-restraint and pure sankalpa over 4-night wait.
Q. Are Nisheka and Garbhadhana the same?
Related. Nisheka = first union. Garbhadhana = union with conception-sankalpa. Traditional families perform both together on Nisheka night.
