Overview
Upanayana (Janeu) Sanskar for families in Cooke Town
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.
Cooke Town is one of the older residential neighbourhoods north east of the city centre, next to Frazer Town, Richards Town and St Thomas Town. Its tree lined streets still have a number of old bungalows alongside low rise apartment buildings.
माङ्गल्यं तन्तुनानेन मम जीवनहेतुना।
कण्ठे बध्नामि सुभगे त्वं जीव शरदां शतम्॥
