Overview

Aksharabhyasam (Vidyarambh) for families in Chembur

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.

Chembur is one of the older suburbs of eastern Mumbai, with tree lined roads, colonies of low rise buildings and bungalows, and newer towers that have come up around the Eastern Freeway and the Monorail. It is well connected to South Mumbai and Navi Mumbai, which has made it a popular place to live.

माङ्गल्यं तन्तुनानेन मम जीवनहेतुना।

कण्ठे बध्नामि सुभगे त्वं जीव शरदां शतम्॥
