Overview

Seemantham (Godh Bharai) for families in Jayanagar

Seemantham, known in the North as Godh Bharai and in Tamil homes as Valaikappu, is the ceremony held during pregnancy to bless the expectant mother and her baby. Its Vedic name is Simantonnayana Sanskar, one of the sixteen sanskars.

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।

कण्ठे बध्नामि सुभगे त्वं जीव शरदां शतम्॥

Planning Your Puja in Jayanagar

The 4th Block and 9th Block commercial areas get crowded in the evenings and on festival days.
Flowers, banana leaves and puja items are easily bought in Jayanagar's markets, including in the 4th Block complex.
Many homes are independent houses, which suits a homa in the courtyard or on the terrace.
For Upanayana or Shashtyabdapoorthi, a nearby kalyana mantapa may be needed for guests; book it early.
Share the due date so the Pandit can suggest a muhurtha.
Tell us your family's tradition and preferred language.
