Celebrates Sri Krishna Janmashtami Jhoola Mahotsav Krishna Janmashtami is the celebration of the birth of Lord Shri Krish- na, the incarnation of Lord Vishnu, who is believed to have been born about five thousand years ago in Mathura in 'Dwapar Yuga'. Krishna Janmashtami is also known as Ashtami Rohini, Srikrishna Jayanti, Krish- nashtami, Saatam Aatham, Gokulashtami and sometimes simply as Janmashtami. It is essentially a Hindu festival. The festival is generally observed on Ashtami tithi, the eighth day of the dark half or Krishna Paksha of the month of Bhadrapada in the Hindu calendar, when the Rohini Nakshatra is ascendant. This is usually in the months of August and September in the Gregorian calendar. The festival is celebrated with great enthusiasm and vigor by Hindus all over India and abroad. People observe fast the whole day, sing hymns and conduct prayers at midnight to rejoice the birth of Lord. Ras lila, dramatic enactments of the life of Krishna, are a special feature that is showcased in every part of the country, as it re-creates the flirtatious aspects of Krishna's youthful days. Another interesting aspect of Krishna Janmashtami is the practice of Dahi-Handi. This game portrays the playful and mischievous side of Krishna, where teams of young men form human pyramids to reach a high-hanging pot of butter and break it.

Some Important Facts About Hyerath... 1. Why Tithi Triyodashi Is Important
Some important facts about Hyerath... 1. Why Tithi triyodashi is important to celebrate Hyerath; According to Bharav Yaag Granth Triyodashi is the deciding factor to solemnize the day of Hyreath.

No. Our Hyreath is Har-Ratri (Hura Ratri) celebrated on Triyodashi & MahaShivratri deciding factor is Chaturdashi that is the reason Maha shivratri is also called Shiv-Chaturdashi.

All over the Hindu world Hindus celebrate MAHASHIVRATRI on Chaturdashi that falls on 24th Feb and they are fine with that. Why are few among us comparing Herath with MahaShivratri?

The Copper Hoards Problem: a Technological Angle
The Copper Hoards Problem: A Technological Angle Received 14 June 1969 D. P. AGRAWAL I. THE PROBLEM HE Copper Hoards are difficult to define. Copper artifacts discovered from sites as distant as Shalozan in the northwest, Bhagrapir in the east and Kallur in the south T have all been lumped together under the designation, "Copper Hoards." Tool types also are equally varied: they include socketed axes, trunnion axes, flat celts, anthropomorphs, rings, and harpoons, among others. The problem of definition is further compounded by the fact that all these finds are unstratified, and they have no association with other artifacts. The earliest discoveries were reported by V. A. Smith (1905, 1907). R. Heine-Geldern (1936) equated them with the Indo-Aryan culture on the basis of typological considerations alone. He proposed that the trunnion axes came from Transcaucasia, the axe-adze from the Danube and the antennae sword from the Koban region. He surmised that these artifacts came to India through Persia around 1200-1000 B.C. In this equation he was at first supported by S. Piggott (1944), but subsequently the latter proposed that they were perhaps the relics of the Harappan refugees (Piggott 1950). In a brilliant analysis, B. B. Lal (1951) pointed out that the trunnion axe, the Fort Monroe sword, the socketed axe-adze and the axe had a westerly distribution, whereas the harpoon, the barcelt and the anthropomorph were confined to the Doab and never occurred west of it. But undeterred by Lal's criticism, Heine-Geldern repeated (1956) his arguments and declared that the Copper Hoard-Aryans, coming from the West, invaded India between 1200 and 1000 B.C.

Food for Thought’ – MUI WW’S E-Recipe Book, Was Born
Foreword “One cannot think well, love well, sleep well if one has not dined well.” If you think of this world as a big bowl of soup, then we are all tiny ingredients tossed into this pretty hot soup called COVID 19! This pandemic has changed the deﬁnition of life, for almost all of us. We are living in times that will someday, be described in History books, as an extraordinary era of joblessness for most, overwork for many, disparity, loss, insecurity and global disruption of ‘normalcy’. For the Indian Seafarers and their families, this pandemic has been a challenging time where sign-offs got delayed, vacation plans got disrupted, planned surgeries were postponed, weddings and family functions cancelled. Fear and anxiety started rising. Loneliness-lead-depression started surfacing amongst not just the Seafarers, but also their families. Food became a source of comfort, a 'feel-good' element, a dependable friend, and also a tool to showcase individual creativity and innovation! The COVID Lockdown turned the occasional cook into an innovative chef. During this journey from Bon Voyage to Bon Appétit; home chefs, young and old, started dishing out new recipes while they tried their hand at experimenting with available ingredients. The wonderful compilation of recipes in this book is an ode to the Culinary Skills that have been honed amidst our seafaring families, throughout this lockdown period. We, at MUI-WW, began to observe a barrage of food pictures in our various groups across the country. Kitchen talk became a common language for bonding and continues to remain the trending topic throughout this lockdown.

Bhakti: the Mystica
INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL FOR INNOVATIVE RESEARCH IN MULTIDISCIPLINARY FIELD ISSN – 2455-0620 Volume - 3, Issue - 7, July - 2017 Bhakti: The Mystica Richa Sharma PhD Scholar , Department of English, University of Jammu, Jammu and Kashmir, India Email.- [email protected] Abstract: The devotional worship of God with the ultimate object of attaining moksha or salvation is called Bhakti. The cult of Bhakti is as old as the Indian religious traditions going back to the prehistoric times of the Indus valley civilization and culture. We find mention of Bhakti in the Vedas, the Upanishads, the Epics and the Puranas. The most significant saints related to Bhakti Cult were Sankaracharya, Ramanuja, Ramananda, Kabir, Guru Nanak, Vallabhacharya, Mirabhai and Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. The basic significance of the Bhakti saints was their partial success in creating a climate of understanding between Hindus and Muslims and providing a framework within which they could meet without synthesis. Thus, the Bhakti movement had profound significance in the religious, social, economic and cultural spheres of its contemporary times. Key Words: devotional worship, Bhakti movement, Bhakti cult, lord Krishna. 1. INTRODUCTION - BHAKTI: THE MYSTICA: The devotional worship of God with the ultimate object of attaining moksha or salvation is called Bhakti. The word “Bhakti” comes from the root word “bhaj” which means “faith, devotion, attachment, worship or adoration to God” and also from the root word “bhaj sevayam”, which means “to serve”. Therefore, the word “bhakti” stands for affection, love or service. We find mention of Bhakti in the Vedas, the Upanishads, the Epics and the Puranas. The Narada Bhakti Sutra, a well-known sutra venerated within the traditions of Hinduism, starts off by defining “Bhakti” to be the form of supreme love.

Indian Calendrical Calculations
Indian Calendrical Calculations Nachum Dershowitz Edward M. Reingold† Abstract We analyze various Indian calendars. We discuss the Indian day count, a generic solar calendar that generalizes various calendars including the mean Indian solar calendar, the true and astronomical Indian solar calendars, a generic lunisolar calendar that generalizes the Indian version, and the true and astronomical Indian lunisolar calendars. We also discuss aspects of the traditional Indian calculation of the time of sunrise and the determination of lunisolar holidays. The months of the Hindus are lunar, their years are solar; therefore their new year's day must in each solar year fall by so much earlier as the lunar year is shorter than the solar.. If this precession makes up one complete month, they act in the same way as the Jews, who make the year a leap year of thirteen months. , and in a similar way to the heathen Arabs. —Alberuni's India. 1 Introduction The world's many calendars are of three primary types: diurnal, solar, and lunar—see our Calendrical Calculations: Millennium Edition [5] (henceforth CCME). All three are represented among the many calendars of the Indian sub- continent. ¡ A diurnal calendar is a day count, either a simple count, like the Julian day number, or a complex, mixed-radix count, like the Mayan long count. The classical Indian day count (ahargana) is used for calendrical purposes. ¡ Solar calendars have a year length that corresponds to the solar year. All modern solar calendars add leap days at regular intervals to adjust the mean length of the calendar year to better approximate the true solar year.
