In Hinduism, as with most religious cultures, samskaras are sacred ceremonies performed with the help of a priest and in the presence of family and friends. Traditionally there are twelve samskara, but some later traditions raise this number to sixteen. In practice, however, there are only about eight samskaras that are regularly performed. This number varies from family to family and from region to region.

The Shodasa Karmas (sixteen kinds of ceremonies), which a Hindu is enjoined to undergo, seem to have been based upon certain critical psychological and physiological developments (climacterics) which occur in a man's life at certain definite intervals.

It must be noted that the successive stage when the human infant assumes the upright posture, commences to speak and so on, occur at fixed times in normal development so much so that a child that does not begin to talk or walk at the proper time becomes a source of anxiety to his parents.

The change of teeth also marks a transition. Permanent dentition sets in about 7 years after birth. Seven years after this another crisis is reached and that is puberty. A further change is noted about the age of 21.

There are of course several other critical periods such as the menopause occurring at the age of 49 or 50 (7*7), another grand climacteric at 63 (7*9) often accompanied by death. In the human being, it is said that every cell of the body is renewed every seven years, although this is not quite correct for all tissues. Thus, the Shodasa Karmas are supposed to fortify the human body and human mind at such critical phases.

  Rites and Observances - Astrology is central to Hindu belief and the timings and movements of the stars are linked to the roles of different deities. Some Hindus keep their own astrological charts. Each day of the week is dedicated to a deity and Hindus choose those whom they worship. ‘Vratas’ are days of fasting and prayer.

Main fasting are linked to the Indian calendar. The science of Vedic Astrology should be used with care. It should never be revealed to people who have no faith in God, who are sceptics by nature and to those who do not show reverence to their Guru.

Daily worship at home is predominant, but temple worship takes place regularly. Before entering the temple, shoes are removed and hands washed. During the ceremony, money and flowers are offered to the deities. An important part of worship is the lighting of the ‘sacred’ fire.

The ‘Aarti’ ceremony, performed twice daily, involves offering light to the deities and then to the worshippers. Prayers are said and ‘mantras’ recited, as well as singing.

Life has been a great mystery to mankind. Its origin, growth, dependence and disappearance have always exercised their thoughts and emotions. Through observations and experiences throughout the ages ancient Hindus realised that life is a science like any other in this world.

It requires cultivation and refinement. People today are preoccupied with building implements for the destruction of life rather than finding what governs the laws which create, control and sustain life.
