Guest guest Posted March 12, 2010 Report Share Posted March 12, 2010 Dear friends, Jai Shri Ram! Here is the list of correct dates of some of the important fasts, festivals and fairs for 2010-11. This list has been compiled as per the Vedas, Vedanga Jyotisham, Puranas and siddhantas. In fact, this is almost a ditto copy of the list of festivals prepared by Shri Darshaney Lokesh in his “Mohan Kriti Tithi-Patrak” in Hindi, priced at Rs. 80; postage extra. His address is: Shri Darshaney Lokesh; 276, Gama-1, Greater Noida (UP)-201310 (Ph.0120-6544628; 09412354036) On perusing this list, you will see that there is a lot of difference from the dates of festivals as per Rashtirya Panchanga, which is actually “almighty” Lahiri Panchanga, and is thus neither as per the Vedas nor the Siddhantas, nor even modern astronomy, leave alone dharmashastras! Those Lahiri festivals are being observed because we are surrounded by “Vedic astrologers” who are actually anything but Vedic. And since those “Vedic astrologers” cannot “make correct predictions (sic!)” from any Rashichakra other than that of Lahiri, that is why they want the entire Hindu community to celebrate muhurtas and also festivals on “Lahiri” days! It is, though, a moot point as to how accurate (sic!) their predictions on the basis of “almighty” Lahiri Rashichakra are, since---just to cite one example---it was on the basis of that very Rashichakra that the NDA government had been advised by Jyotishis galore to advance the elections by several months, and the results are there for anybody to see---Poor Vajpayee’s Rajya suffered an “akalamrityu”---thanks to “Vedic astrologers” and their “Vedic astrology”. You will find from this list that these jyotishis want us to celebrate Pitra Amavasya on the day of Dipavali, celebrate shradha paksha during a time which is very auspicious otherwise, celebrate kharamasa and dhanurmasa when they are not prevailing and so on and so forth! They are also thrusting down our throat an adhika Vaishakha masa in 2010, when there is no adhikamasa as per the Vedanga Jyotisham during this year! It may be of interest to these “Vedic astrologers” that in the past, all the horoscopes were prepared from panchangas based on siddhantas like the Surya Siddhanta by Maya the mlechha, and all the siddhantas talk of “Bhanor Makar Sankranteh Shanmasah uttarayanam, karkyades-tathiava syat shanmasa dakshinayanam. Dwirashinathah ritavastatoapi shishiradayah, meshadayo dwadashaite hbagastaireva vatsarah” i.e “The six months of Uttarayana start from the day of Makar Sankranti (the shortest day of the year) and the six months of Dakshinayana from the day of Karkata Sankranti (the longest day of the year). Thence also are reckoned the ritus like Shishira etc. of two months each. These twelve rashis, commencing with Mesha are the months of which a year is made up.” (Surya Siddhanta –Madyamadhikara 9-10) In fact, the same thing has been repeated in almost all the Puranas, whether the Bhagavata or the Vishnu Purana or the Shiva Purana etc. etc. that Makara Sankranti is the shortest day of the year, Karakta Sankranti the longest day of the year, Mesha Sankranti the day of Vernal Equinox (when day is equal to night), Tula Sankranti the day of Autumn Equinox, when the day is equal to night again! All these points have been clarified in BVB6.docs; 1999b.docs etc. All these clarifications and pramanas from shastras as well as modern astronomy were sent to all the dharmacharyas. If in spite of that, these jagadgurus, who are supposed to be sarvajnyas, or “his holienss of art of this thing or that thing” or babas and yogis and tantriks etc. are acting like blind and deaf towards such a travesty of dharma, we must certainly try to find the reasons for the same! What is all the more surprising is that Arya Samajis, who are supposed to go by the Vedas and nothing but the Vedic lore, are also succumbing to “almighty” Lahiri Rashichakra which is anything but Vedic---since there are no Mesha etc. Rashis in the Vedas, as such no Makar or Kumbha Sankranti--- nor siddhantic, least of all as per modern astronomy! All these “nimitas” (omens) are certainly not good for the Hindu community as a whole! It is, as such, a Clarion Call to a common Hindu that he/she must revolt against such tyranny in the name of phalita-jyotisha by “Vedic astrologers” who are anything but Vedic, and start celebrating all the festivals and muhurtas on correct days! Jai Shri Ram!
