NAAMAAAAAAMAANA~
The Pūrvādi Pūrva (previous and preceding) Gurus, Agnis (sacred fires), and Brāhmaṇas should be circumambulated in order. A white cloth should be spread out. 142 The father should place the son, facing north, with joy. Holding his arms, he should make him walk towards the east. 143 Leaving the fire-pit on the left side, the father should give three circumambulations, and then make the child pay obeisance to the Agni, Guru, and Brāhmaṇas. 144 In the ninth month, on an auspicious star, day, and yoga, the father should make the child perform the Gamana (departure) ritual. Like before, he should perform Jina worship and homa in the temple. After bathing the child, he should adorn him with fine clothes and ornaments.
Mantra: Om namo'rhate bhagavate śrīmate mahāvīrāya catustriṃśadatiśayayuktāya bālakasya pādanyāsaṃ śikṣayāmi tasya saukhyaṃ bhavatv iti svāhā. The father should recite this mantra while making the child walk.
Vyuṣṭikriyā: After one year, the Vyuṣṭikriyā (birth anniversary) ritual should be performed, also known as Varṣavardhanajananī. Like before, Jina worship, dāna, homa, and proper honor to the Iṣṭabandhu (relatives) should be done. 145-146
Caulakarma: Mundana (tonsure) is performed for all children. I shall explain the Jain scriptural guidelines for this. 147 In the first, third, fifth, or seventh year, the Caulakarma should be performed by the householder according to family tradition. 148 If the mother is pregnant or the child is in distress, the Caulakarma should not be performed. 149
