Customs and traditions are a question of everyone's personal faith. But there are many customs in Hinduism that have a scientific basis.
Greet with folded hands
Greeting with folded hands is the ancient tradition and civilization of Hinduism. By giving salutation with both hands, you also give respect to the front and also you get physical benefits due to the scientific importance of this action. When we join the two hands, our palms and fingers are pressed on the points which are directly related to body parts like eyes, nose, ears, heart etc. In this way, the pressure is also called aqua pressure therapy. By doing salutation in this way, we do not even come in touch with the front, so that there is no risk of any kind of infection.

Putting copper coins in rivers
Earlier, there used to be copper coins, which have been replaced today by stainless steel coins, with which copper purifies water. That is why in the old times copper coins were poured into the rivers because most of the rivers used to be the source of drinking water.
Tilak on the forehead
Applying tilak on the forehead between the two eyebrows puts pressure on the point which is considered to be the most special part of our nervous system. By applying tilak, it becomes active as soon as the pressure is applied on this particular part, and new energy starts circulating in the body. Applying tilak increases concentration. Blood is also properly circulated in the facial muscles.

Temple bells
There is a scientific reason to have hours or bells in the temple. There is a spiritual feeling as the sound of the hour falls in the ears. This increases concentration and calms the mind. The scriptures state that the sound of the thunder keeps evil spirits away from the temple. The voice of the hour is dear to God. When we play the bell in the temple, its resonance resonates in our ears for about seven seconds. It is believed that during this time, the seven points which give relief in our body are activated by the sound of the hour and the negative energy gets out of the body.
