DESCRIPTION:

Yagnopavit is a joint word made of two fragments - Yagna and Upvitam. Yagna means a sacrificial ceremony and Upvitam means sacred thread. Therefore, Yagnopavit is a ceremony where sacrifices are pledged and a sacred thread is worn as a reminder of that pledge. 

Yagnopavit is symbolic of the initiation of a house holder into performing his threefold duties to the household, the devtas and to his pitrus hence, the three stand with the brahmaganth or divine knot wearing over the left shoulder as a necessary ritual tool when performing these three duties.

Yajnopavitam has three threads (actually only one thread, folded three times and tied together) each consisting of three strands. These threads represent

  1. Goddess Gayatri (Goddess of mind)
  2. Goddess Saraswati (Goddess of word) and 
  3. Goddess Savitri (Goddess of deed) 

Once married, the householder gets 3 more strands on behalf of his wife.

It denotes that one who wears the sacred thread should be pure in his thought, word and deed. The sacred thread reminds a Brahmachari to lead a regulated life with purity in his thought, word and deed. These threads also represent the debt that is owed to the guru, parents and society.

The knot in the middle represents the formless Brahman, the pure form of energy which pervades all. The three threads again represent the manifestation of Brahman as Srishti, Sthithi and Vinasa. The sacred thread illustrates the fact that everything in the universe emerges from and then merges with Brahman.
