I'm not sure, but I think I saw some Punjabis wear a silver bangle (can't remember which hand). I was just wondering if there's any religious significance in wearing the bangle in any religion.. Can anybody help? Thx.
Yes, they are religious symbols of sikhism. A sikh must carry on person 5 K's ie Kesh= hair not to be cut for purity, Kanga= comb for the hair, Kucha= underwear for comfort during service, Kadha= bangle worn in the right hand and Kirpan= dagger as a preparedness for war.
These are the things a "Khalsa" has to carry. Lot of hindus also visit the sikh temples and enjoy listening to the good message in most religions and thus punjabi hindus may also sport a Kadha however donot sport the turban which is peculiar to sikhs.

Thirty pieces of silver ($66, if shekels) was the price offered. (Mt 26:14, 15) The sum fixed by the religious leaders appears designed to show their contempt of Jesus, viewing him as of little value. According to Exodus 21:32, the price of a slave was 30 shekels. Carrying this forward, for his work as a shepherd of the people, Zechariah was paid “thirty pieces of silver.” Jehovah scorned this as a very meager amount, regarding the wages given to Zechariah as an estimation of how the faithless people viewed God himself. (Zec 11:12, 13) Consequently, in offering just 30 pieces of silver for Jesus, the religious leaders made him out to be of little value. At the same time, though, they were fulfilling Zechariah 11:12, treating Jehovah as of low value by doing this to the representative he had sent to shepherd Israel. Corrupt Judas “consented [to the price], and he began to seek a good opportunity to betray [Jesus] to them without a crowd around.”—Lu 22:6.

The silver cord breaks upon death..etc
@Everard J
Its in the bible,
Ecclesiastes 12:6 "Remember him--before the silver cord is severed .."
When you have an out-of-body experience, this is the cord that connects your astral body to your physical body.
EDIT:
Some people believe that your astral body is actually your soul.

My girlfriend and I are not religious, but like the idea of having a gold and silver (for the bride) set of wedding rings, like the Catholics.
Is this appropriate to do ?
In general, can we just get the rings that we like, or is there a set of guidelines that we should follow ?
You go to the jewelry store and you buy whatever rings you like and can afford.
It has a St Benedict cross on the back and a high relief picture of St Benedict on the front holding a staff in his right hand and a book in his left hand. There are words on the front, Ora, Labora, Pax and France I don't think this is available on the retail market WHAT IS IT??????
It's from the Benedictine Confederation; the inscription is "Ora, labora, et pax," their motto, meaning "Prayer, work and peace" in Latin.

Holy week brings religious spectacle to Óbidos | Silver Coast News
Easter Holy Week starts in Óbidos today (March 28) with a full programme of historical and religious events.
The week’s spectacle, which attracts both worshippers and curious onlookers, begins at 5pm with a Palm Sunday procession through the narrow lanes of the village which will stop at shrines that symbolise the stations of the cross.
A second procession on Good Friday, April 2, at 9:30pm will commemorate Jesus’ path to Calvary, where he sacrificed his life on the cross.
A cultural programme has also been prepared as part of the week’s celebrations, including a choral performance of works by Dvorak, played by the Orquestra Filarmonia das Beiras e Coro Regina Coeli. This takes place at 10pm on April 3 at the Santuário do Senhor Jesus da Pedra, located inside the walls of the village.
...I Want To Be Left Behind: Religious Literacy or “Toward the Mystery”
Fundamentalism meets deep ecology in Brenda Peterson's new memoir. This rather dark, divine comedy of family and conflicting faiths uses humor to defuse dogma -- whether it is religious or environmental. Acclaimed novelist and nature writer, Peterson takes on human nature and what she calls a spiritual ecology that is as concerned with saving the earth as well as our own souls. She paints such a hilarious, loving portrait of each world that we will all want to be Left Behind. While on my book tour in Palm Springs I was asked to speak at the William Edelen Symposium. Every Sunday this elder statesman of what he calls “religious literacy” gathers a large crowd of spiritual seekers to listen to his erudite talks and discuss their deepest beliefs. It is just the kind of spirited, intellectual...
