Overview
Namkaran Sanskar for families in Daraganj
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.
Daraganj is one of the oldest neighbourhoods of Prayagraj, stretched along the Ganga just north of the Sangam. Its narrow lanes, old houses and ghats have long been home to Tirth Purohit families, and the area comes fully alive every winter when the Magh Mela spreads across the sands below it.
माङ्गल्यं तन्तुनानेन मम जीवनहेतुना।
कण्ठे बध्नामि सुभगे त्वं जीव शरदां शतम्॥
Māṅgalyaṁ tantunānena mama jīvanahetunā, kaṇṭhe badhnāmi subhage tvaṁ jīva śaradāṁ śatam.
