To this thread is attached a ring, which may be flat or cylindrical, called *pāvitrī*. It is made of deer’s horn, rhinoceros horn, of bone, of brass or other metal. Brass rings obtained from Nepāl have on their rim three images, that of Paśupati (Śiva) with the trident on one side of it and the bull on the other. The ring represents Pārvatī.
