Gold Prices Soar: Is Brahmangaru's Prophecy of Wooden Mangalsutras Coming True?

  • Ancient sage Brahmangaru's prediction about women wearing wooden bangles instead of gold is gaining attention amid surging gold prices.
  • Gold prices have seen a record rise, with a single-day jump of over Rs 800 on January 21, making gold increasingly unaffordable for many.
  • The tradition of wearing a gold mangalsutra, central to Hindu weddings, is becoming challenging to maintain due to high costs.
  • Experts warn of further price increases, suggesting that affordable alternatives like wood might replace gold, aligning with Brahmangaru's prophecy.
  • Current market prices show 10 grams of 24-carat gold at approximately Rs 157,260 and 22-carat at Rs 140,000, with silver prices also climbing.

Why It Matters: Soaring gold prices are making the precious metal a luxury, potentially fulfilling an ancient sage's prophecy.
