The outer shell of the coconut is like human hair, the hard shell is like a human skull, the inner water is like human blood and the white bullet is the brain area of ​​the human brain. Thus many people now seek coconut as one of the important pooja items. 
• In Hindu mythology, it is believed that the coconut was probably made by Sage Vishwamitra to help King Satyavrata who tried to enter heaven or swargaloka as a mortal man but was cast out of God. Coconut is also associated with Lord Ganesha. It is said that one day when he was playing, Lord Ganesha was attracted by his father's third eye and touched it. Lord Shiva told him not to touch him and gave him a special ball to play with which was a coconut. That's what happened to the coconut world. Coconut is thus very important to Lord Ganesha and is given to him.
