Dear Sri Narasimhan :
MaviLai ThOraNams are hung at the entrance in halls
of marriage for the couple to be blessed with lots of
Children ( Suprajaa) .It is an ancient custom .
Mango Tree is a symbol of Love and Mango Fruits are
considered as favorite fruits of DevAs .
Certain amount of sacredness associated with Mango Leaves
over the years has led to its use Udhaka Saanthi ,PuNYAhAvAchanam
for ProkshaNam .
There are some medicinal properties for Mango leaves
that we wont go into here .
