Great Time for Pitri Tarpana

[Guest guest]

Re: Great Time for Pitri Tarpana

 

 

Dear friends,

Namaskar to all!

 

The real Pitrapaksha/Shradha-paksha ended actually on August 30,

2008, which was the actual Pitra-Amavasya! The real Sharadiya

Navratras started on August 31, 2008 and ended on September 9, 2008.

 

Dipavali, the festival of lights, is actually on Sunday, September

28, 2008, when all the Hindus will be " celebrating (sic!) "

Pitramavasya!

 

We have actually lost our cultural moorings just becasue of the fraud

known as " Vedic astrology " according to which Uttarayana is not the

shortest day of the year (December 21/22) but some other day---

January 15---as that is the date " advocated " by " almighty " N. C.

Lahiri and Lahiriwalas. All our festivals and muhurtas have become

topsy turvy because of " Vedic astrology " and " Vedic astrologers " .

This will be clear from a list of correct dates of festivals being

uploaded in the files section under the heading " 08-09.pdf " .

For any further clarifications, pl. join

HinduCalendar

Do wake up to this fraud that is being played on the entire Hindu

community!

With regards,

Avtar Krishen Kaul
