Do you know that we Hindus are celebrating all our festivals now on wrong dates? Do you know that when you are said to be born under a particular star ( nakshatra), actually your birth star may be some thing else and not the one you are supposed to have been born under? Do you realise that due to such a discrepancy in taking correct star (nakshatra ), we are unable to select a proper muhurth for any purpose? Yes, for well over 1400 years we failed to correct our calendars (panchangas), for what is known as the precession of the equinoxes. Our panchangakars take the length of the year to be 365.258756 days as given in the Surya siddhanta of about 500 A.D., while the correct length of the tropical year, which alone can be used according to the same siddhanta and modern astronomy, for calindrical use, is 365.242196 days. The difference of .01656 days is partly due to errors of observation and failure to recognize the precession of the equinoxes. This modicum of difference has now grossed up to about 23.2 days, with the result the Indian solar year instead of starting on the day following the vernal equinox ( vasantha vishu ) on March 22, starts now on April 13 or 14. The Brahmin community, as practitioners of the Vedic religion of sanathana dharma, has a duty to uphold Vedic values. If they follow dharma, every other section of the Hindu community will automatically follow the path of dharma. It is therefore the maiden duty of the Brahmins to help reform our time reckoning. Have you heard of Madhu, Mdhava, Sukra, Suchi, Nabhas, Nabhasya, Isa, Urja, Sahas, Sahasya, Tapas and Tapasya? Yes, these are the names of the months as prescribed in our Vedas (Yajur Veda Taittriya samhita 4.4.11) But instead we use the Greek origin translated terms such as Mesha, Rishaba etc. Should we not be saying at least our samkalpas with the names that are given in the Vedas? The Vedas have mentioned 28 nakshatras including Abhijit. Each group of stars has a different longitudinal span. Today we take 13 degree 20' span as an average per star and calculate 2.25 stars for 30 degrees or a " Rashi " (which is again a non-vedic adopted term). But when some stars are more than double the average span and some less than half the average, how can you be sure that you are born under the particular star on the present basis of calculation? Saka samvatsara year is 1931 for English year 2009. On March 16, 2010 Prabhavati year " Krodhi " begins (Saka1932/Vikram Samvat 2067). But due to the difference in the initial fixation (Saka 1876 –1954-55 AD -- was named 41 Plavanga in northern India and 28 Jaya in the south) there is a difference of one year in the north and 13 years in the south. Actually the sixty- year cycle is based on the transit of Jupiter. Jupiter should transit the Aquarius (kumbha ) sign and simultaneously when the sun transits Mesha (Vishu sampat ), the Kumbha mela is held in Haridwar, a very auspicious event for the Hindus. This should have been on March 21, 2009. But alas it is going to be celebrated in March 2010 when Jupiter is actually in Pisces (Meena )! This is how all our rituals and festivals are now-a-days celebrated in Bharatha varsha. To end all these anomalies and errors and for re-establishing sanathana dharma on the correct path and unify the Hindu community of both the north and south, a new panchanga has taken shape in the form of " Sri Mohan Krity Aarsh Tithi Patrak " . Here the months are Vedic, dates are called gatey( in the sense of the Sanskrit word Gatih), nakshatras are as per their actual span, timings are given in hours and minuts, (not nazhiga and vinazhiga), thithis are mentioned correctly as per their duration. Corresponding English dates are also provided. Festivals dates are mentioned correctly as per shastric formulations. " Sri Mohan Krity Aarsh Tithi Patrak " is published by Acharya Sri Darshaney Lokeshji of C-276, Gama-1, Greater Noida ( UP ) PIN-201310. Phone:01206544628, +91 9412354036. darshaneylokesh The Tithi Patrak for the next year is getting ready and I would urge all members of the Brahmin community especially the purohits. to make use of it in all our samkalpas – vedic months names, thithi, vara, nakshatra etc. Please do not use the Rasi names as it is not vedic. (there is no mention of any rasi or planets other than the sun and moon , in any of our Vedas.) Let us forge a new erea in our chronology. A list of important festivals for the next year is attached for your benefit.
