Samavartan (Graduation)
Completion of Education and Readiness for Grihastha Ashram
In ancient Indian tradition, Samavartan (also spelled Samavartana) marks the completion of formal education in a Gurukul and the student’s readiness to enter the next phase of life—Grihastha Ashram (householder stage). It is considered the Vedic graduation ceremony, symbolizing the end of Brahmacharya Ashram (student life).
