Guest guest Posted August 16, 2008 Report Share Posted August 16, 2008 Partial Lunar Eclipse August 16 IST 25h.06 min uptil 28h 15 min ( Tonight after midnight from 1.06am uptil 4 .15am) Area of visibility in India - The beginning, middle and end of the partial meclips will be visible throughout the country. What You may do during the eclipse. Most of us would be obviously sleep during the eclipse, but for those who are awake and wish to take advantage - Keep a jug of water near you, be seated on a asana , and recite your Guru mantra ( Mantra given to you by your Guru ). If you have not yet received a Guru mantra, then please recite whatever mantra you like, and do Japa. The Catholics may do their recitations on the rosary. Power of recitations ( Japa ) Important The number of times you recite a mantra normally, whatever benefits may accrue, remember when you do the same number of recitations ( Japa ) sitting in a temple, near the seashore, in teerthsthana, and during the eclipse, the same number of recitations is multiplied tens of thousands multifold , and so is he benefits accruing consequently. Remember Not to eat during the eclipse. Not to even drink water during the eclipse. Not to touch any thing during the eclipse period. Pregnant women must mandatorily not go out. Do not look at the sky. Have a bath immediately after the eclipse.. Best wishes, Bhaskaran. www.shrikrishnajyotish.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
