LC: To understand Samskaras and how they prepare Hindus for the next stage in life
Samskaras are the turning points of life and are extremely important to Hindus and their families and friends. Therefore, they need to be celebrated! Everyone gets together to convey their best wishes and blessings to the person concerned.
Below is a list of the 16 Samskaras. Hindus think of these as some are more important than others. As you can see by looking at the list, Vivah (marriage) is the most important Samskara. Why do you think that this is the most important within the religion of Hinduism?
YOUR TASK
You are going to create an information poster that explains what Hindu Samskaras are. You can design this as you like and use some of the Samskaras as examples in your explanation. Once you have done this, you need to include the Samskara of Vivah. You should explain why this is the most important Samskar to Hindu people.
When you are using your iPad to research, please make sure that you add KS2 to the end of each search.
