Overview

Karnavedha Sanskar for families in Cantonment

Karnavedha Sanskar is the ceremony in which a child’s ears are pierced for the first time. It is one of the sixteen Hindu sanskars and is still widely observed, especially in South Indian families, where it is often held together with Mundan or at a family temple.

The Cantonment area is one of the greener, more spacious parts of Varanasi, close to Varanasi Junction railway station. Wide roads, older bungalows and several well-known hotels give it a calmer feel than the busy centre.

माङ्गल्यं तन्तुनानेन मम जीवनहेतुना।

कण्ठे बध्नामि सुभगे त्वं जीव शरदां शतम्॥

Traditional vivaha mantra

Convenient for families arriving by train who want a puja soon after reaching Varanasi.

Parts of the area are under cantonment administration, so follow any local access rules.

Arrange the person who will pierce the ears in advance.
