Annaprashan pooja

There are a total of 16 sacraments described in Hinduism, out of which Annaprashan is an important sacrament. It is considered as the seventh sanskar among the 16 sanskars. Feeding food to the child is started with this sanskar. This rite is called by different names in different states across the country, such as Churunu in Kerala and Mukhe Bhaat in Bengal.Before Annaprashan, the infant drinks only the mother's milk, so the importance of this sanskar increases, because this is the time when the infant takes food for the first time, apart from the mother's milk. There is also a verse in Sanskrit about Annaprashan.

At the beginning of the Annaprashan ceremony, the child is placed on the maternal uncle's lap and it is the maternal uncle who feeds him for the first time. After eating the first morsel, other family members feed the child with food, offer prayers and bring gifts for the child. During this, clay, gold ornaments, pen, book and food are kept in front of the child. Out of these, on whom the child lays his hand, his future is predicted.
