Guest guest Posted September 10, 2009 Report Share Posted September 10, 2009 SrI: Dear All : Earlier I had sent this note . It needs some elaboration . This year is an unusual one as was the case in 1963 , where such confusion existed between choice of celebration of KrishNa chaturdai SnAnam in the month of purattAsi or Iyppasi . Most of the Panchangams have recommended Friday ( Oct 16) late night for snAnam and Oct 17 early morning for celebration of DipAwaLi PaNDikai . Based on the titi nirNayam (determination) for DipAwai this year , Sri Ahobila Matam sishyAs have been asked to celebrate snAnam on Nov 14 Saturday late night ( pinniravu) and the Pandikai on Nov 15 . I plan to follow this ruling from my AchAryan as Sri Matam Sishyan . Please consult with your own AchArya Paramparai about the selection between the two dates . For those who are not strict on such matters might choose Oct 16/17 , which is the national holiday , it seems in India . Most of the PanchAngams for USA suggest Oct 16/17 celebration . There are two traditions in celebrating DipAwaLi . One is for children and Social / holiday ( Fireworks , new vastrams etc) . The other is more of a Vaidheekam kind for alakshmi pareehAram by Naraka chaturdasi snAnam . During this year , the first type of celebration is on Oct 16/17 and the second type is on November 14/15 .
