Nayan also means ‘the eye’. Upanayan thus means the inner vision (antahachakshu). Therefore, the ritual which facilitates the development of inner vision is called Upanayan.
The gurus with whom we get linked for life long are Surya Bhagwan and Gayatri Devi. This process is to initiate the individual's journey towards development through understanding the Sanatana Dharma very closely.
It is not just a sacred thread, it affirms u to stay grounded and reminds u of your duties as per your Dharma at large. The youngster is given Bhramopadesham - Gayatri Mantra. A Bhramachari has 3 threads, A married person wears 6 threads, a married person with children 9 threads
Each round of Janeu consists 3 set threads representing the 3 shakti tatvas of universe ( Maha Kali, Maha Lakshmi, Maha Saraswati ) your body wears 3 tatvas Shakti, Aishwaryam & Knowledge. Maintaining purity is a MUST. As per dakshinachara in south states some rules r made.
A Bhramin - Get his sanskara done by below age 8
A Kshatriya - By age 12
A Vaisya - By age 16.
If by any chance they miss , the upper limit is 24 for performing the sanskara.

Bheeshmacharya ws 1 such person who performed his duties so diligently tht it's a beautiful example to learn.Acharya was so dedicated to his dharma tht amid mahabharata war, he steps dwn the rath & takes soil in hand & givs Arghya to surya bhagwan fr sandyavandan n chants gayatri
He who takes the right spirit of Upanayan and moves forward to practice Bhrama Tatva ( Gayatri Mantra) and develops spiritually he is blessed by God towards a meaningful life.
Janeu shouldn't be removed once accepted from a guru. This is th real tatva 1 has to practice until last breath. This is manavadharma. A true Sanatani who wants to grow should take this sanskara very seriously for his spiritual growth 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
