About Annaprashan
Annaprashan is a child's first solid food, kept in the sixth month for a boy and the fifth or seventh for a girl in most north Indian custom, on a muhurat. The food is usually kheer, and it is given by the maternal uncle or the grandfather rather than by the mother.
The rite is short — a Ganesh puja, a sankalp, the feeding, and a blessing — and the part families remember is what follows it, when the child is set before a tray of objects and allowed to reach for one. An hour, at home, and the gathering is usually larger than the ceremony.
Keeping a rite in Deoghar
Deoghar's calendar is dominated by Shravan. Through that month the town belongs to the kanwar pilgrimage, the temple queues run day and night, and local pandits are committed to it; domestic bookings move to the months either side as a matter of routine.
Outside the season it is a small town where most rites are kept at home and the temple visit is a separate errand. Mundan and the first-hair rites are commonly kept at Baidyanath, which is a booking that has to be planned around the queue rather than around the muhurat alone.
