Guest guest Posted July 26, 2006 Report Share Posted July 26, 2006 Sannyäsés are generally meant to travel all over the country for preaching work, but during the four months of the rainy season in India, from September through December, they do not travel but take shelter in one place and remain there without moving. This nonmovement of the sannyäsé is called Cäturmäsya-vrata. When a sannyäsé stays in one place for these four months, the local inhabitants of that place take advantage of his presence to become spiritually advanced. >>> Ref. VedaBase => KB 86: The Kidnapping of Subhadrä, and Lord Kåñëa's Visiting Çrutadeva and Bahuläçva Dear Editors, Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada. As we all know, the four months known as caturmasya roughly correspond to the months of July, August, September, and October. Might the above be a mistake?
