• Origin
Deeply rooted in centuries of sacred tradition, the brass coconut—known as Pital Nariyal or Daab—was originally created as a symbolic alternative to real coconuts in Hindu rituals, particularly in areas where natural coconuts were either scarce or perishable. Its usage can be traced back to ancient temple practices and Vedic rituals, where brass was esteemed for its durability, purity, and spiritual conductivity. Completely crafted from brass, this pooja item is designed to endure a lifetime. It showcases a glossy or antique finish, often featuring engraved textures that replicate the natural husk of a pooja coconut. Compact yet substantial, it is perfect for placement atop a kalash during rituals. Its resilient finish, easy-to-clean surface, and rich symbolism render it both a functional and decorative asset in any spiritual environment.

• Narikela (coconut) in the Puranas: The Divine Fruit of Ritual and Reverence
Referred to in Sanskrit as Narikela and endearingly called Sriphala—“the God’s fruit”—the coconut possesses profound spiritual and cultural significance throughout South Asia. Its name is believed to originate from ancient terms: Niyor (oil) and Kolai (nut), reflecting both its physical characteristics and sacred symbolism.

The coconut is prominently referenced in esteemed texts such as the Mahabharata, Ramayana, various Puranas, and even the Buddhist Jataka tales. By the 6th century AD, it had evolved into a sacred offering in domestic rituals and a cherished gift during festivals. Its spiritual significance was further enhanced in the Agni Purana and Brahma Purana (circa 800–900 AD), where it was lauded not only for its medicinal properties but also for its contribution to purity, tranquility, and auspiciousness.

According to the Matsya Purana, the planting of coconut trees alongside other sacred plants was thought to attract wealth and prosperity. A cherished legend also associates the coconut with Lord Ganesha—bestowed upon him by Lord Shiva—signifying its divine origin and everlasting role in ritual worship.
