The Niṣkrāmaṇa (ceremony of taking the child for the first time out of the house) should be performed on the third lunar day of the third bright fortnight after the birth of the child. It has this peculiarity that the parents should take the child to the temple of the Bhagavat and show it the image of the deity.
