Significance of Janoi
During the ceremony, the child is invested with the sacred thread “Janoi” or
“Yagñopaveetam” which
symbolizes the boy’s spiritual commitment and marks his entry into the second stage of life, called
“Brahmacharya”
He will start learning the Vedas, rituals, and spiritual disciplines, which is the main purpose of Upanayana.
