Marriage among the Hindus was considered a sacramental union and
it continued to be so throughout the entire Hindu period.
The manu smriti says I hold
your hand for saubhagya (good luck) that you may grow
old with your husband, you are given to me by the just, the creator,
the wise and the learned people.
Hindus
conceived of marriage as a union primarily meant for the performance
of religious and spiritual duties. It could not take place without
the performance of sacred rites and ceremonies and it was a permanent
and eternal union
However with changes in the society marriage among the Hindus which
was essentially a sacrament partook the nature of a contract. The
Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 covering entire India except the state
of Jammu & Kashmir has reformed the Hindu law of marriage.
