Guest guest Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 Namaste Nanda and everyone -- Perhaps you can help clarify this for me. As I see it, there are two Chandi options in front of us. There is the 2008 sankalpa to incorporate the (eventually) entire Chandi into our daily sadhana, and there is the 9-day recitation, which begins on a specific day each month. I assume we can try to combine both of these. That is, on the days we are not doing the 9-day complete recitation, we are continuing the study in the order Swamiji suggests. Would it be possible for you/Chris/someone to please continue to let us know the starting dates for the 9-day recitation. I have tried to understand the calendar but still find it confusing for some reason. As Parvati said in a previous email, we are all going to be very busy this year -- but I know, with Mother's blessing, success will come. Jai Maa!

Guest guest Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 Dear Ambi,The Chandi sankalpa given by Maa and Swamiji this year supercedes the one given for last year. However if you are also comfortable chanting the Chandi during the bright fortnight and want to know the starting dates of the bright fortnight, here is a presentation that might help -- Please look for "How to use a Panchanga" here -- http://www.shreemaa.org/drupal/taxonomy_menu/58/158 Hope this helpsLoveNanda , "way131" <wendy131 wrote:>> Namaste Nanda and everyone --> > Perhaps you can help clarify this for me.> > As I see it, there are two Chandi options in front of us.
