Guest guest Posted February 18, 2007 Report Share Posted February 18, 2007 Dear Devotees, The Lunar Eclipse will take place on March 3rd, 2007. The period of time of the eclipse is called the “Punya Kaala.” This is the sacred time for doing punya karmas and earning punya, as stated in Shastras. Everyone must take bath at the beginning and end of the eclipse time, it’ll be equivalent to Pavithra Snana. The presence of Abhimaani Devataas of Ganga and all other sacred rivers will be there in all water as stated in PuraNas. Everyone has to fast and do Japa, Pooja, and Stotra PaaraayaNa to get special Blessings of this auspicious time. Any Punya Karma done with full Faith in this period yields multiple times of Phala and removes all doshAs. Timing of GrahaNa : (For the Observation) Moon Rise Grahana Moksha (US) E S T 4:43 PM 8:11 PM Central Time 5:28 PM 7:11 PM Mountain Time 5:30 PM 6:11 PM Pacific Time 4:56 PM 5:11 PM This GrahaNa will begin in Purva Phalguni (Pubba) Nakshathra, Simha Rashi and it will also affect Karkata, Kanya, Makara and Meena Rashi. People who were born in these Rashi-s should do special prayers to remove their GrahaNa doshA. Some parihAraas are chanting Vishnu Sahasra Naamaa, Rudra Abhisheka, Darshana and Pradakishana Namaskaara of the Lord, and daana of wheat and toor dal to Vedic Brahmins. PS: 1) Monthly "Satyanarayana Pooja" in Shri Krishna Vrundavana will be performed on Friday 2nd March, instead of 3rd March. 2) Please click HERE for the Photos of Shivarathri Celebration, held on 15th Feb in SKV.
