Overview
Upanayana (Janeu) Sanskar for families in Shivajinagar
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.
Shivajinagar is among the oldest parts of the old cantonment, with Russell Market, the Shivajinagar bus station and St Mary's Basilica at its centre and Commercial Street just to the south. Narrow lanes are packed with shops, wholesale markets and old houses.
माङ्गल्यं तन्तुनानेन मम जीवनहेतुना।
कण्ठे बध्नामि सुभगे त्वं जीव शरदां शतम्॥
