Siddha Janeu (Pandit's Wearing Body Thread)
This Janeu is charged by Ganesha mantra. Siddha Janeu is considered to be the most important part of Hindu culture and though many Hindus have now abandoned the theory of wearing the sacred and auspicious thread - Janeu, it is still mandatory and most important to wear the sacred Jahanav while doing any Puja or any act of devotion or worship. Made of pure fine cotton the Siddha Janeu is a regimental part of the upbringing of traditional Hindus and forms an important part of our ancient culture and customs.
