Yajurveda Upakarma 2022 Date
Upakarma means beginning or Arambham which refers to the ritualistic beginning of learning Veda. People from the Brahmins community ritually change their Upanayana thread or the sacred thread also known as Janeyu/Yagnopaveetham (known as Poonal in Tamil) with Shrauta rituals along with learning Vedas on Upakarma day. Upakarma is a Vedic ritual still practiced by Hindus of Brahmin community.
People who follow Yajurveda observe the Upakarma on the full moon day during Shravan month i.e. on Shravana Purnima day and people who follow Rigveda observe the Upakarma on Shravana Nakshatra day in the month of Shravana(Aadi in Tamil). Thus the day to observe Upakarma might differ for the followers of Yajurveda and Rigveda.
