Overview
Namkaran Sanskar for families in Jayanagar
Namkaran Sanskar is the ceremony in which a newborn is formally given their name. One of the sixteen Hindu sanskars, it is a joyful family occasion, bringing together parents, grandparents and relatives to bless the child at the start of life.
Jayanagar was laid out in the late 1940s as one of the first planned extensions of Bangalore, with numbered blocks, wide tree lined roads and the Jayanagar 4th Block shopping complex at its centre. Lalbagh Botanical Garden lies at its northern edge.
माङ्गल्यं तन्तुनानेन मम जीवनहेतुना।

Māṅgalyaṁ tantunānena mama jīvanahetunā, kaṇṭhe badhnāmi subhage tvaṁ jīva śaradāṁ śatam.
