After death, many types of activities are done with the dead body. During this, the toes are also tied. But why does this happen? Let us tell you.
Often you must have seen that after the death of any person, many procedures are done with his body. Tying the toes is also one of these, but most people will not know the reason why the toes are tied after anyone's death. It has a very deep connection. At the time of death, the soul leaves the body. This is destiny. The soul feels the sorrows of its family, this is the reason why the dead body is cremated and given fire to free the soul from attachment. But why are the toes tied. Let us tell you.
Why are toes tiedAccording to the Puranas, whenever a person dies, the first thing that is done is to tie the toes of both the feet of the dead body together. This is very important because this makes the Muladhara (root) hard in such a way that the life cannot enter the body again from there.
Actually this is done to end the attachment of the soul, otherwise it will try to enter the body again through any open part of the body, especially through the Muladhara. Muladhara is the place where life begins. In Hinduism, the Muladhara Chakra is considered the center of life energy. This chakra is stabilized by tying the toes.
Why is it necessary for the soul to leave the bodyAfter death, the soul has to go to Yamaloka, where Yamraj evaluates its deeds. Souls with good deeds are sent to heaven, while souls with bad deeds are punished in hell.
