There are many beliefs regarding worship in Hindu customs, which we all follow even today. One of these rules is to ring the bell in the temple. There is a bell in every Hindu temple and whenever we go to the temple and return from there, we definitely ring the bell, but do you know that the bell should never be ringed while returning from the temple.

In Sanatan Dharma, importance has been given to worship since ancient times.

By ringing the bell, devotees seek permission from the God to enter the temple and focus the attention of the Gods and Goddesses towards themselves and then worship them.

It is told in the Puranas that when we go to the temple, all kinds of thoughts are running in our mind, along with negative thoughts also keep coming. Which after entering the temple get destroyed as soon as the bell is rung. The divine sound of conch, bell and bell removes all negative energy and thoughts from the body. Then when we have darshan of the Gods and Goddesses in the temple, positive energy and thoughts start flowing in our mind. After this, we return after doing devotional songs with love, and then ring the bell, then all the positive energy gets confused by the sound of the bell and gets destroyed. Therefore, to preserve positive energy, the bell should not be rung while returning from the temple.
