Above annaprashan samskara celebrates the first taste of baby solid food. Sankara (IAST: saṃskāra, sometimes written by Samskara) are rites of passage to human life, described in ancient Sanskrit texts, as well as a concept in the karmic theory of Indian philosophy. The word literally means to come together, to make perfect, to prepare, Sacred or consecrated ceremony in the ancient Sanskrit and Pali texts of India. In the context of the theory of karma, sankara is a mores, character or behavioral trait that exists as the default of birth or is prepared and improved by a person throughout his life, which exist as imprints on the subconscious according to various schools of Hindu philosophy, such as the yoga school. These improved or default prints of karma within a person affect the nature, reaction, and state of mind of that person. In another context, Sanskar refers to various rites of initiation into Hinduism, Jainism, Buddhism and Sikhism. In Hinduism, the Sanskars differ in number and detail in accordance with regional traditions. They range from a list of 40 Sanskars in Gautam Dharmasutra from about the middle of the 1st millennium BC, to 16 Sanskars in Grhyasutra texts centuries later. The list of Sanskars in Hinduism includes both external rituals such as the celebration of the birth of a child and the awarding of the child's name, as well as the internal rites of resolutions and ethics, such as compassion for all living beings and positive attitude. The etymology and meaning of Saṃskāra (Sanskrit: संकार) has various contextual meanings that are broadly related to together, attainment of goodness, perfection, form of solemn recognition and readiness, participation in the works and recognition of body cleansing by purification or mind by education or object through process (e.g., polishing of precious stones or metal processing). The term appears in the srutis and in the Smrit of various Hindu schools, as well as in the texts of Jainism, Buddhism and Sikhism. The etymological roots of the word samscar, when it refers to the rites of initiation, are also preparing, purifying, improving from their past state to their future state. The word samscara is rarely found in the oldest layer of Vedic literature, but its roots are quite common. The word appears in the hymns Rig Veda 6.28.4 and 8.33.9, as well as in other Vedic texts, where context assumes that it simply means clean, prepare. It appears in Jaimini Purvamimamsa-sutra (500-200 BC) many times, where it again means to prepare, perfect, polish something, either through action, speech or mind. In sections 3.8.3, 9.3.25 and 10.2.49, Jamini Purwamamamas-sutra uses the word samsara to describe the actions of washing teeth, shaving your head, cutting nails, spraying with water during the ceremony. Samskara is defined by the ancient Indian scientist Shabar as what prepares a certain thing or a person suitable for a certain purpose. Another ancient text, Viramitrodaya, defines Samscara, Kane notes, as a kind of superiority due to the performance of certain actions that are in the soul or body of the actor. Sansara in Kane's states, were ceremonies, with expressions of external symbols or signs of internal change, noting the events of life's significance. They served a spiritual, cultural and psychological purpose, welcoming a person into the stage of life, granting privileges to the individual (s), expecting responsibilities from the individual, and impressing the person, as well as the human circle of communication of his or her new role. Sanskar's modern use is sometimes used for cultural, social or religious heritage. Samskara as a psychological concept Main article: Samskara (Indian philosophy) In the context of karma theory, Samskara are dispositions, character or behavioral traits either as default from birth (previous life in some Hindu schools), or Samskara are behavioral traits improved over time through yoga, through conscious formation of internal self, desire, sense of moral responsibility and through practice. In some Hindu schools, the psychological concept of Sansara is also known as Wasana. They are seen as traces or temperament that develops through the sophistication of the individual inner consciousness and the expressed personality, and is a form of readiness in vedantic psychology. In the schools of Samhya and Yoga, Sankara, also written as Samksara, are impressions or remnants that affect the human gunas (attributes of behavior). In the Nyai School of Hinduism, not all samscars are psychological. Rites of initiation, other actions, research, diligent training and internal permissions cause impressions or dispositions in the human psyche, in these schools of Hinduism, and they affect the way a person acts, perceives himself and how a person reacts or accepts karmic
