Guest guest Posted August 22, 2000 Report Share Posted August 22, 2000 Dear Bhagavathas, According to Sri Ranganatha Paduka (July 2000 Issue, pages 4-5), Sri Pancharathra Vaiganasa, Munithraya Sri Jayanthi falls on Wednesday, the 28th of August. Even though many panchankams have indicated Janmashtami on Tuesday, the 27th of August, Srirangam Srimad Andavan Periashramam has clarified that it should be celebrated only on the 28th due to the following reason: In the Munithraya Sampradayam it is important to observe Sri Jayanthi on Janmashtami. Since on Tuesday Sapthami veda extends up to 10.24 naazhigai, Janmashtami cannot be observed. Wednesday is therefore the proper day to celebrate Sri Jayanthi, regardless of location. This message should not be construed as a rebuttal of any position taken by other bhagavathas or institutions. Vaashaka Dhoshaka Kshandavyahaa. Adiyen Srimad Andavan Thiruvadi. ~Nadadur Madhavadasan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
