Overview
Karnavedha Sanskar for families in Sarnath
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.
Sarnath, a few kilometres north-east of central Varanasi, is revered around the world as the place where the Buddha gave his first sermon after enlightenment. Its stupas, monasteries and museum draw pilgrims and visitors from many countries throughout the year.
माङ्गल्यं तन्तुनानेन मम जीवनहेतुना।
कण्ठे बध्नामि सुभगे त्वं जीव शरदां शतम्॥
