Hinduism is a dominant religion in India and Hindus follow a variety of rituals and traditions. Moving to a new home, rented or owned, is associated with certain rituals. When we buy a new house, a 'Gruha Pravesham' is usually done with Vastu Pooja, Vastu Havan and a Ganesh Pooja in most families in South India. There is a tradition of "boiling the milk and letting it overflow and overflow" and, after offering to God, the rest of the milk is shared among the family members. But have you ever wondered why they follow this ritual?

Entering a new home means the beginning of a 'new life' and each of us expects a life without obstacles and filled with contentment. According to Hindu belief, boiling the milk and letting the milk flow and the overflow of milk would ensure our lives a life brimming with wealth, health, and happiness. The distribution of the rest of the milk also means that happiness and sorrows are evenly distributed among the family members. It is also considered to be a "sign of prosperity" when milk falls in the direction of the east; because "East" is a very propitious side according to the Indian Vastu.
