Overview
Upanayana (Janeu) Sanskar for families in Banashankari
Upanayana, widely known as Janeu Sanskar, is the ceremony in which a child receives the holy thread (yagnopavit) and is initiated into the Gayatri Mantra. Traditionally it marked the beginning of formal Vedic study under a guru, and it remains an important sanskar in many Hindu families.
Banashankari takes its name from the Banashankari Amma temple on Kanakapura Road, a much visited shrine of the Goddess, especially busy on Tuesdays, Fridays and during Rahu Kala pujas. The area spreads over several stages south of Basavanagudi and west of Jayanagar.
माङ्गल्यं तन्तुनानेन मम जीवनहेतुना।
कण्ठे बध्नामि सुभगे त्वं जीव शरदां शतम्॥
