Sri Ramanujacharya's Thirunakshatiram

[Guest guest]

Dear BhAgavathAs,

 

I believe that today (Mar 31, Tue) is Sri Ramanujacahrya's Thirunakshatiram.

Let us commemorate the great acharya for his invaluable service to

the growth of SriVaishnavism.

 

AdiyEn.

I think this date is given in the Hare Krishna Calendar. But the actual

date seems to be May 1st. I would request others to comment.

I have also noticed this discrepancy between the two calendars. Apparently,

there is always 30 days difference between the Gaudiya tradition's

recognition of Sri Ramanuja Thirunakshatram and what is standardly accepted

among our community.

 

I really have not been able to determine the reason for this. I would like

to request Sri Gaura Kesava or other devotees in this forum who may have

more knowledge of the Gaudiya calendar to elaborate.
