Overview

Upanayana (Janeu) Sanskar for families in Chembur

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.

Chembur is one of the older suburbs of eastern Mumbai, with tree lined roads, colonies of low rise buildings and bungalows, and newer towers that have come up around the Eastern Freeway and the Monorail. It is well connected to South Mumbai and Navi Mumbai, which has made it a popular place to live.

माङ्गल्यं तन्तुनानेन मम जीवनहेतुना।

कण्ठे बध्नामि सुभगे त्वं जीव शरदां शतम्॥
