Seva

Upanayan is one of the most important Samskārās. “Upa” means ‘close’ and “Nayanam” means ‘to bring’. Upanayan means to bring closer to the Guru or Divine. Upanayan also known as the ‘sacred thread ceremony’ is performed to mark the commencement of formal education in the Vaidic tradition. It is an initiation process to learn the sacred Gayatri Mantra. Upanayan ceremony includes the wearing of Yajnopavitam (sacred thread) on the body. The Gayatri mantra is one of the greatest prayers mankind has.
