Cultural Significance: Karnh Sanskar (Karna Vedha)
The auspicious ear lobe piercing ceremony, known as Karnh Sanskar (Karna Vedha),
holds deep significance in many Hindu traditions.
While there is no single consensus regarding the ideal age for a Hindu child’s ear piercing,
it traditionally takes place:
-
Around the 6th or 7th month after birth, or
-
During the 3rd, 5th, or 7th year of life
Auspicious days and times for the ceremony are carefully selected and referenced in traditional scriptures
such as Dharma Sindhu and Karna Vedha Sanskar, which may suggest performing
the ritual on the 10th, 12th, or 16th day after birth,
depending on cultural interpretation.

At Baby Ear Piercing, our experienced professionals begin offering ear piercing services

Cultural Beliefs & Respectful Perspective

help support the flow of positive energy during youth—often referred to as “The Spark of Youth.”
