what are the 16 sanskar in Hinduism
According to Hinduism, the Sanskar is a collection of sacraments, sacrifices, and rituals that act as rites of passage, mark the many stages of a person's life, and denote admission into a specific stage of life. Sanskars add a spiritual dimension to significant occasions that occur at various points in a Hindu person's life, from pregnancy to post-death. Sanskaras are major life turning occasions that should be honoured.
