Aksharabhyasam is a auspicious religious ritual which is performed to signify starting education to the child. Generally, this ritual is performed when the child completes two years of age and is in its 3rd year. As the mind of the child develops and is keen to learn various things in the world, this religious ritual called Aksharabhyasam is performed in the 3rd year as an initiation to start formal education.

The literal meaning of Akshara is ‘alphabets’ and the meaning of Abhyasam is practice. Hence this ritual is considered a pre-requisite as per the Hindu religion before the child starts going to formal education in school or Vidhyaarambha.
