Guest guest Posted October 10, 2007 Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 Namaste family I have a quick question: there is a Durga Mandir just up the road from where I live and they have the start date of Navaratri as Friday, Oct 12. I have heard this starting date from others as well. At the Devi Mandir, we start on Thursday. Why is there a conflict in dates? Thank you.... Jai Maa! wendy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 10, 2007 Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 Dear Wendy, Sometimes the folks here celebrate an event because they look at the lunar calendar based on Indian Standard time. Swamiji and Maa base an event on the local lunar calendar ie San Francisco time. Our beginning date is Oct 11th. Thanks and love Nanda , " way131 " <wendy131 wrote: > > Namaste family > I have a quick question: there is a Durga Mandir just up the road from > where I live and they have the start date of Navaratri as Friday, Oct > 12.
