Heartwarming Introduction of Traditions to the Next Generation... In a heartwarming video that has captured the essence of family and cultural values, a young child is seen being introduced to cherished traditions by their family. Although the details about the creator of the video and the adorable young participant remain unknown, the video stands out as a testament to the power of passing down cultural heritage from one generation to another. The video showcases a heartwarming scene, where the young child engages in traditional practices despite being too young to fully comprehend their meaning. The family's dedication to preserving and sharing their cultural customs from an early age is commendable and sets an inspiring example for the community. The video serves as a reminder of the importance of instilling cultural pride and values in the younger generation, even before they can fully grasp their significance.

When I saw this post, I expected a lot of comments on “discrimination.” What is happening here is just part of the culture, and we should embrace it, but on the other hand, everybody seems to be deluded that the kid will grow to be a casteist. What if he doesn't? What if the kid learns or his parents teach him to embrace every culture and every belief? Most of the time, if we stop worrying about something, it is less likely to happen.
Anyone who is hating on this video, you don't understand what's happening here. This here is not just a symbol of India/Hinduism, it is a what the purpose of human life is. Ram is our life and the janau (the thread) is the initiation of our lives as human beings.
Right age to do upanayanam. Isn't the boy adorable? These things are common occurrence in our Iyengar homes, but kind of weird to let the videos off. Looks like it's time to video one or two of these kids. See, how adorable the boy is, and the he's holding his nose to say jai, to Rama name, equivalent to 'Om Tat sat... at this age" Who posted this originally? And look at the way he's holding the thread! 7 years is the right age for this ritual, but under special circumstances you can conduct it odd #d age, starting from 5, what we call "kamyopanayana" . This one is a 3 year old kid of Vadakalai clan. Whatever it may be, this is more than cute. Mangalaasaasanam! Om! Srimate Ramanujaya namah:
And that's also how inequality is passed from one generation to the other. India is the only country in the world that institutionalized discrimination in a caste system stressing the superiority of some.
Thankyou for sharing. India should have one religion i.e. Hinduism and we should respect our Hindi and Sanskrit language. At least we can not speak Sanskrit but yes we can try and teach to our coming generations. Also, please avoid speaking in English in offices unless and until is required. I have seen people in McDonald or any cafe used to show off while speaking in English. We should be proud of our own language and speak everyday everywhere. Hope to see.
Let this thread be a symbolic to keep people from all walks of life United as one humanity and not distance one human from the other.🙏
I see a lot of confusion in this discussion. Upananyanam is like an enabling ritual to make a young man seek knowledge, and yes, it is part of the caste system. Among chartuvarna's, brahmin, kshatriya and vysya boys are eligible for upanayanam. Riitual of seeking alms after upanayanam, is to subdue the ego of the young man even before he learns. Learned men are supposed to be humble. There are variations in the way the alms are sought. A Brahmin boy should chant ‘Bhavati bhiksham dehi’. Kshatriya celibate should chant ‘ Bhiksham bhavati dehi’. A Vaishya celibate should chant ‘Bhiksham dehi bhavati’. Every culture has its own caste system. China has a caste system. Scholars, peasants, craftsmen and merchants. Intercaste marriages are rare. Japan has a similar caste system of 4 types, warriors, merchants, artisans and farmers. Mayan system has several more layers, with slaves at the bottom. It was the English and Germans who thrived on slave trade and built business empires. East India Company tried to reduce Indians into slaves, with all the Indigo farming/extraction to, export of spices, red-sandal wood , artefacts -including the Kohinoor diamond! Europe is a den of thieves! They preach us about caste system? Delightful!
Great video. Hindu people often think that some things might not be seen as modern or traditional. In contrast, within other communities such as Muslims, there's the practice of performing namaz five times a day, and among Christians, attending church and praying to Jesus is a daily and mandatory Sunday activity. The level of engagement with religious practices might vary among different groups. However, Hindus often perceive these practices as being of lower status. The younger generation should reach a moment of realizing the importance.
