Yagopavit Sanskar, also known as Upanayana or the Sacred Thread Ceremony. This ceremony marks the initiation of a young boy into spiritual education and the study of sacred scriptures. The term “Yagopavit” refers to the sacred thread (Yajnopavita) that is bestowed upon the initiate, symbolizing their entry into a life of discipline, learning, and spiritual growth. This ritual is traditionally performed for boys between the ages of 8 and 16, although it can be conducted later in life as well.
