Chudakarma 09 Upanayanam (Poonal) Starting of Brahmacharya. This ceremony initiates the child into an intellectual and spiritual journey. 'Yagyopaveet' (sacred thread) indicates that the child is qualified to perform all the traditional Vedic rites including Pitra Kriya and Tarpan for his forefathers. 10 Samavartam conclusion of Brahmachari period 11 Antyesti,shraddha funeral rites to be performed by the son Sl. Nos. 01 to 09 are to be done by the parents. The parents should see that their children do not blame them later for not doing these Samskaaras. Sl. Nos. 10 is to be done by the Brahmacharies during Gurukulavaasam. This duration is about 12 years. A final word about samskaras; as with everything else about Hinduism, it is up to the individual to decide whether a particular Samskaara has relevance. It is easy to dismiss them as being of no relevance to the age we live in, but if after reading , research and contemplation (sravanam, mananam, nididhyasanam) such is the conclusion, It is understandable one follows ones dictates on the choice of which Samskaara to follow. 62
