Overview

Namkaran Sanskar for families in Panchganga Ghat

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.

Panchganga Ghat lies on the northern part of Varanasi's riverfront. Its name is traditionally explained as the meeting place of five rivers, and it is one of the ghats pilgrims have long visited for a holy dip in Kashi.

माङ्गल्यं तन्तुनानेन मम जीवनहेतुना।

कण्ठे बध्नामि सुभगे त्वं जीव शरदां शतम्॥

Traditional vivaha mantra

Planning Your Puja in Panchganga Ghat

The ghat is reached on foot through old city lanes; vehicles stop well short of it.
Steps are steep and can be slippery, so plan carefully for elderly relatives.
Kartik mornings are busy with devotees taking snan.
Boats from the central ghats are another way to reach this stretch of the river.
Water levels rise in the monsoon and the lower steps may be under water.
Share the baby's birth details a few days ahead so the Pandit can suggest the name letter.
Keep a thali, new clothes for the baby, honey and a diya ready, or ask for samagri.
