English	Just after baby Kṛṣṇa turned three months old, mother Yaśodā saw that He was slanting His body in an attempt to rise and turn around. To celebrate this auspicious occasion, she arranged to observe the Vedic ceremony called utthāna, a bathing ceremony performed when a child is due to leave the house for the first time. So Mother Yaśodā called together the other women of the neighborhood to assist her, and the brāhmaṇas joined by chanting Vedic hymns while professional musicians played their instruments and sang.
