Upākarma "Beginning" (: उपाक셍म), (Tamil: ஆவணி அவி翍ட믍) and Janivārada Huṇṇime (: ಜꂿವಾರದ ಹುಣ್ಣಿ룆), Gamma (Oriya: ଗହ୍ମା ପୂର୍ଣିମା), is a Vedic ritual conducted once a year during the Hindu calendrical month Śrāvana, when ritually change their thread accompanied by relevant rituals.

While removing the old thread, the means -"I remove with respect, the old broken thread by wear and tear, may the new one bring on long life and 's brilliance."

When the new thread is worn, the mantra recited means "I put on the sacred thread which is highly pure, is inseparable from God, is capable of prolonging life and is the foremost in the accomplishment of a Brahmana. May such pure Yagnopavita bring strength and dignity."

Note: The ‘sacred thread’ for the ritual is provided by the temple at no cost; please check with priests. Take part in any of the (3) batches.
