Overview

Upanayana (Janeu) Sanskar for families in Greater Kailash

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.

Greater Kailash, usually called GK, is one of South Delhi's best known residential areas, divided into GK I and GK II with its extension on the Kalkaji side. Its lettered blocks are lined with private kothis, many of which have been rebuilt as spacious builder floors, and its M Block and N Block markets are well known.

माङ्गल्यं तन्तुनानेन मम जीवनहेतुना।

कण्ठे बध्नामि सुभगे त्वं जीव शरदां शतम्॥
