Overview

Upanayana (Janeu) Sanskar for families in Ghatkopar

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.

Ghatkopar lies on the Central Railway line in the eastern suburbs, and is linked to Andheri and Versova by Metro Line 1. Ghatkopar East, with neighbourhoods such as Pant Nagar and the areas around the station, is known for its large Gujarati community, while Ghatkopar West climbs towards the hills of Asalpha and Kaju Pada and has seen many new residential towers.

कण्ठे बध्नामि सुभगे त्वं जीव शरदां शतम्॥
