पुराणम्
English
वीर्यशुल्क / VĪRYAŚULKA. In ancient days the Kings wanted to give their daughters in marriage to the most valiant youths. The custom of showing their valour before the people, before getting the damsel became more prevalent, than giving money to get the girl. Thus marrying a girl by showing his valour is called marriage by giving vīryaśulka. (Śulka means Nuptial gift). (agni purāṇa, Chapter 4).
