Munj, Vrat-bandhan, Upanayana – several names, one implication: your little child is now grown up! So much so, that there’s an initiation ceremony to mark his entry into adulthood and he’s invested with a sacred thread, to symbolize the transference of spiritual knowledge! The batu will be greeted with a shower of garlands and accompanied by a lively musical performance by Nauvari-clad danseuses and singers, will be ushered into the mandap with a lot of fanfare – truly a spectacle to behold!
