Overview

Mundan Sanskar for families in Shivpur

Mundan Sanskar, also known as Chudakarana, is the ceremony of a child’s first haircut. One of the sixteen Hindu sanskars, it is traditionally performed in the early years of childhood, and in many families it is an important occasion shared with grandparents and relatives.

Shivpur is on the western side of Varanasi, beyond the busier central areas. Once more semi-rural, it has grown into a residential area with new colonies, independent houses, apartment buildings, schools and markets.

माङ्गल्यं तन्तुनानेन मम जीवनहेतुना।

कण्ठे बध्नामि सुभगे त्वं जीव शरदां शतम्॥

Traditional vivaha mantra

Planning Your Puja in Shivpur

Allow extra travel time if the Pandit is coming from central Varanasi.
Share your exact location pin, as newer colonies can be hard to navigate.
Courtyards and terraces in independent houses suit a larger havan.
For Vahan puja, park the vehicle in an open space with room around it.
Ask the Pandit for an auspicious day, as many families follow the child's age and month.
Tell us if you need a barber arranged along with the Pandit.
