Elephants hang on their doors…!

The door is the most important part of any house through which movement is possible.

The door is decorated, the one who goes is taken to the door and the one who comes is welcomed at the door. The threshold is especially concerned with the door and the threshold is a matter of great respect.

In ancient nations, the gate was also revered. The Hindus also worship the threshold, tilak it, decorate the closed doors with paper.

The doors of some ancient houses have elephants on them and it has been said that elephants hang on their doors. The gatekeepers also belong to the gates.

Destroying the door is like taking the honor of this family in this house. That is why the dust of the door has a special meaning.

Taking the dust off the door is a proverb that points in that direction. It is also called Level by Charanji Lal, which is also called “Leodne” by Western UP in terms of its pronunciation and “Leore Dalna” also refers to the process of uprooting and uprooting layers of soil. There is a sign which means that nothing was left in the house and those who touched it took it away.

From this (idiom) we can understand the mood of our society and some social attitudes.
