Overview

Annaprashan Sanskar for families in Kedar Ghat

Annaprashan Sanskar marks the moment a baby tastes solid food for the first time. One of the sixteen Hindu sanskars, it is a warm family occasion in which parents, grandparents and relatives gather to bless the child as they begin a new stage of growth.

Kedar Ghat is one of the most recognisable ghats in south Varanasi, with its distinctive painted steps and the Kedareshwar Shiva temple above it. The ghat is a popular place for a morning Ganga snan, and it is busy but less hectic than the central ghats.

माङ्गल्यं तन्तुनानेन मम जीवनहेतुना।

कण्ठे बध्नामि सुभगे त्वं जीव शरदां शतम्॥

Traditional vivaha mantra

Planning Your Puja in Kedar Ghat

Tell us your family's tradition and preferred language, such as Tamil, Telugu or Kannada, when you enquire.
Vehicles usually stop short of the ghat, so expect a short walk through lanes.
Early mornings are the best time for snan and riverside sankalp.
Sawan Mondays and Kartik bring heavy crowds; plan early.
Guest houses run for pilgrims may have their own rules about havans, so ask first.
Share the baby's birth details so the Pandit can suggest a good day.
Prepare kheer in a silver or clean bowl, as many families prefer.
