Overview
Upanayana (Janeu) Sanskar for families in Baner
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.
Baner lies in north west Pune between Aundh and Balewadi, with Baner Hill on one side and the Mumbai Bangalore highway on the other. Once a village on the city's edge, it is now a busy suburb of gated apartment complexes, cafes and offices along Baner Road.
माङ्गल्यं तन्तुनानेन मम जीवनहेतुना।
कण्ठे बध्नामि सुभगे त्वं जीव शरदां शतम्॥
