Abstract

In the late 18th century, the Tamil people lived in Palakkad district of Kerala state from Tamil Nadu. In it, a study of the rituals of the life of Christians and Hindus reveals the method of planting the pandal in the marriage ceremony, the gifting, the land system, the thali tying, etc. Ritual in human life is "A regularity established by people for the people". It can be seen that this ritual is widely similar between the two religions.
