    Overview

    Aksharabhyasam (Vidyarambh) for families in Old Alwal

    Aksharabhyasam, known in the North as Vidyarambh Sanskar, is the ceremony that marks the beginning of a child’s education. The child is seated on a parent’s lap and, guided by the Pandit, writes their first letters, often Om and the first letters of the alphabet, on a slate or in a plate of rice.

    Old Alwal is the original village core of Alwal, north of Secunderabad between Bolarum, Lothkunta and Macha Bolarum. The old Sri Venkateswara Swamy temple here is one of the oldest temples on the Secunderabad side and gives the area a strong devotional character.

    माङ्गल्यं तन्तुनानेन मम जीवनहेतुना।

    कण्ठे बध्नामि सुभगे त्वं जीव शरदां शतम्॥

    Planning Your Puja in Old Alwal

    Temple days and Vaikuntha Ekadashi bring heavy crowds to the old lanes; plan travel early.
    Alwal and Lothkunta roads near the army areas can have restrictions; share the route you use.
    For Venkateswara puja, keep tulasi leaves, flowers and a clean space for the deity's picture or idol.
    Share a landmark like the temple or a nearby school to guide the Pandit.
    Keep rice on a plate, a slate, new books and a pen ready.
    Dress the child in new traditional clothes, as many families prefer.
