Karnaved Sanskar is practiced in all the four
categories of Hindu culture. The ear is pierced in this ceremonial ritual.
There are two reasons of performing these two religious rites; one is to wear
ornaments in the ear. Second is acupuncture occurs by ear piercing. It improves
the flow of blood in the nerves leading to the brain. This increases hearing
power and helps in the prevention of many diseases. On this day, after

Karnaved
Sanskar in Hindu religion is considered as the tenth prominent sacrament. This
Sanskar is done for the overall improvement of hearing power and for the
protection of health. Especially for the girls, the Karnaved Sanskar is contemplated essential. In order to keep the
nerves intersecting, both ears are pierced which hold golden hulls/earrings. Karnaved Sanskar has physical benefits
and is performed before the Upaniyan sanskar. This sacrament is done in the
appropriate age either according to the tradition or during 6 months of the
child’s age. Karnaved Sanskar is
done for the purpose of achieving complete femininity and masculinity in men
and women. It is also stated that the sun's rays enter through ear-piercing and
make the child powerful and furious. To preserve the girl's ablution and to
prevent the child from the diseases, this ritual is observed. Our scriptures do
not allow a person to perform Shraddha ceremony if he has not gone through
piercing ceremony- Karnaved Sanskar.
Brahmins and Vaishya observe Karnaved
Sanskar with the help of silver needle, Shudra varn with the iron needle
and Kshatriya with golden needle. Brahmins, Kshatriyas and Vaishyas people also
perform Karnaved Sanskar from the
pointed needle. In the auspicious time, after worshiping the deities in the
holy place, the ears should be pierced by allowing the child to sit in the
direction of the sun’s rays.
The Vishu festival is usually celebrated in the month of April according to the Gregorian calendar....
