  • Dipika's Detailed 2020 Hindu Calendar Prem Namaste, Vanakkum, Jai Mata Di, Jai Shree Krsna, Jai Shree Raam We at Pray That You Are Well
    Dipika©s Detailed 2020 Hindu Calendar Prem Namaste, Vanakkum, Jai Mata Di, Jai Shree Krsna, Jai Shree Raam We at www.dipika.org.za pray that you are well... Many thanks for remaining an awesome Hindu¼ Many have asked us to compile an article on the Hindu calendar for example what are the Festivals dates and Rahu kalam . *** Do note that SOME of the information given below for the festival dates is from the S.A.H.M.S. We don't take any responsibility for the information supplied by them. We ONLY have done this for Hindu uniformity within South Africa. Should you have any issues with their dates below please do contact them on 031 3091951 or email [email protected] ***. {Another point of note is when you see a * before a prayer date it means this is not in the general Hindu calendar that Hindus have in their homes. I have added these dates because these are equally important prayer dates that sadly seems to be ignored every year.} DO NOTE:- All times indicated below, associated with the start or end of a religious day are in 24-hour format. Firstly the Festival dates are the dates that a Hindu observes. This is quite self explanatory. For example for Shree Ganesh Chaturthi, we have a full explanation of this very important festival date on our website. Many ask what is this festival all about and how does one go about celebrating it. Hence this website is meant to make people from all cultures more aware of these important Hindu festival dates.

  • A Reflection on the Challenges for Hindu Women in the Twenty-First
    A Reflection on the Challenges for Hindu Women in the Twenty-first Century1 Neelima Shukla-Bhatt Introduction T the turn of the 21st century, it is clear that religion is not an insti- Atution of the past; it continues to be a powerful force in societies across the world. For this reason, some purely secularist and sociologi- cal theories of religion of the early twentieth century, which led to a wide spread view that religion was on the decline in the modern times, have proved to be limited, even though they are helpful in examining the social aspects of religious life.2 As Brian Hatcher suggests in a recent article, a major shortcoming of the secularist approaches to religion has been a purely dichotomous view of faith vs reason and tradition vs modernity. Instead of the demise of religion, Hatcher finds transforma- tion of religion with changing times, as proposed by sociologist Damiele Hervieu-Leger a more helpful way to understand religious phenomena (Hatcher 2006: 54–55). An aspect of religion that is widely debated with regard to need for transformation is treatment of women. In most organized religions of the world, women have not enjoyed equal rights with men. The norms assigned to them by male religious authorities have subjected them to various forms of marginalization. A major challenge for religious communities across the world today is to ensure that their religious practices and values are compatible with the ideal of gender equality as an aspect of the ideology of social justice, which is being widely upheld across the globe.

The researchers Atomic and Molecular Physics, tried to find the exact birthdate to know is Sri Krishna is an epic hero or real historical person. But there Manipal Academy of Higher is a different opinion in Puranas about the birthdate of Sri Krishna. So, knowing the exact birth date is Education, Manipal, Karnataka, important to estimate the period of Sri Krishna. In this context, we showed that Sri Krishna born in India month Bhadrapada with the background of Shruti, Smriti and Jotishya literature. Radhakrishna Bengrodi Guest Lecturer, Department of Keyword: Birthdate of birthless, Sri Krishna Jotishya, Sriman Madhwa Siddhanta Sanskrita Adhyayana Introduction Kendram, Udupi, Karnataka, Sri Krishna was known as the descent of Lord Vishnu as well as a world teacher according to India Smritis. There are several disagreements about the birth date of Krishna. Puranas mentions the birth of Sri Krishna in two months Nabha as well as Bhadrapada. In Amara kosha, Nabha is translated as the moon month Shraavana (kaanda 1, Chapter 4, Shloka 283) [1]. Maybe most of the Shaastrakaaras taken this meaning to Nabha so that they reconciled Bhadrapada as month starting from Krishna paksha. But according to the decision made by Sri Madhwa Acharya (Dvaita Philosopher) in his work Mahabharata Tatparya Nirnaya stated that Sri Krishna born in month Bhadrapada of Chandramana (The moon month) and in that time Jupiter and Sun are in Sihma (Leo) Rashi (Chapter 12, Shloka 120)2.

  • Karthika Month Is the Most Sacred Month to Worship Lord Mahadeva
    Karthika month is the most sacred month to worship Lord Mahadeva In the month of Karthika both Lord Mahadeva and Lord Vishnu are worshipped together, as it’s the month of Sriharahari. Shlokam || Mahimnah param te parama vidusho yadyasadrishi || Pushpadantacharya praised Sri Mahadeva…. as follows, O Mahadeva! your glory is infinite. If it is unseemly to praise You when ignorant of the extent of’ Your greatness, then even the praises of Brahma and others are inadequate. Sri Mahadev in his most delightful form. The sages, the enlightened, the Siddha men, who are rich in tapahsiddhi, stand before Lord Shankara with a very humble sense of humility. For the devotee- humility is the main thing. Without it, no matter how much is done, can grace be obtained so quickly? With the sight of the eye, in front of the Mahayoga Yogi who burnt Manmadha. O Mind! what is your capacity? Mind let go of the ego and worship Mahadeva. What would it be like to bathe in seawater and interpret the ocean with those seawater? O Mahadeva! form of Shiva Shakti, I humbly ask you to give me the fortune to worship you with the flowers of words you have given me. The Brahma Deva say to the Sri Mahadeva, "Hey! Mahadeva, according to my little intellect, I praise you, the Infinite One." God, that goddess has done great penance for you and has impressed you and become your consort. What is my devotion to you who have seen such great penances? It seems to give bitter water to the mouth that drinks honey, my prayer, my devotion, Deva, Mahadeva, forgive us.
