Avani Avittam

[Guest guest]

Sri:

Srimathe Rangaramanuja Mahadesikaya Namaha:

 

Reproduced here are the dates for this years UpAkarma

for Srimath

Andavan Ashramam Sishyas as published in this month's

edition of Sri

Ranganatha Paduka.

 

The reason quoted is that this year, in the month of

Aadi, there are

2 Amavasya which results in 2 Sravanam(Adhika Sravanam

which occurs

first and Nija Sravanam which occurs later). The Rig

and Yajur

upakarma should be done in Nija Sravanam and not

during earlier

occuring Adhika Sravanam.

 

Saturday Aug 28, 2004: Rig Upakarma

Sunday Aug 29, 2004: Yajur Upakarma

Monday Aug 30, 2004: GAyathri Japam

Thursday Sep 16, 2004: Sama Upakarma
