About this tool
Create mundan ceremony invitation text with venue, ritual timings and the child's age on the ceremony day.
Mundan — chudakarana, the first ritual cutting of a child's hair — is one of the sixteen samskaras, and the invitation for it has to carry three things guests actually need: the date, the muhurat, and the time to physically be in the room. This builder starts from the one time your priest gives you, the moment the first lock is cut, and works the rest of the day out from it: the arrival time is the muhurat minus the puja, the kalash sthapana and the havan that come before it, and every step after it is laid out forward. It also computes the child's exact age on the ceremony day from the date of birth, and writes the wording in a formal English card, a warm personal note, a Devanagari Hindi card and a short WhatsApp message.

The programme is anchored to the muhurat and scheduled backwards through the welcome, Ganesh puja, kalash sthapana and havan, so the 'please be seated by' line is arithmetic.
Calendar arithmetic from the date of birth gives years, months, days and the total day count — the same answer every time you open the page.
Formal card, warm note, Hindi card and WhatsApp message all read from the same computed times, so they can never disagree with each other.
The child's name and the parents' names, the date with the weekday, the mundan muhurat, a separate 'please be seated by' time that is earlier than the muhurat, the venue with a full address, the running order of the rituals, and an RSVP name, phone number and confirm-by date. Adding the child's age on the ceremony day is common and reads well on a card.
Manusmriti 2.35 places chudakarma in the first or the third year of the child's life, according to the custom of the family, and from that comes the widespread preference for an odd running year — the 1st, 3rd, 5th or 7th. Practice varies a great deal by community and region; some families do it inside the first year, others wait until after the third birthday. The tool tells you which running year your date falls in and leaves the decision to your family and priest.
No. It does not read a panchang, compute tithis or nakshatras, or suggest an auspicious time — that comes from your family priest. What it does is take the muhurat you were given and build the rest of the day around it, which is the part that is pure arithmetic.
No. The age calculation, the programme timings and all four pieces of invitation wording are produced in your browser. There is no network call, no upload and no storage of the child's name, date of birth, venue or phone number.
