    Overview

    Upanayana (Janeu) Sanskar for families in Cox 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.

    Cox Town is one of the old cantonment neighbourhoods of east Bangalore, lying beside Frazer Town, Cooke Town and Jeevanahalli. Its quiet streets still have some old bungalows with gardens, now joined by low rise apartment buildings.

    माङ्गल्यं तन्तुनानेन मम जीवनहेतुना।

    कण्ठे बध्नामि सुभगे त्वं जीव शरदां शतम्॥
