Annaprasana Meaning is Anna = rice and Prasanna = to enter. Annaprasana means introducing solid food to the child, i.e. feeding rice or solid food for the first time. After performing this ritual, the child can now be introduced to different foods. Annaprasana ends after the “Namakaran” ceremony and is considered auspicious because the baby can now eat solid food.
