  • The Birthdate of Birthless

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.

The month begins with Aswayuja Suklapurnami. This is the most auspicious and sacred month for both Shaiva's followers and Vaishnava's. It is believed that the offering of shivakavasam prayers, especially this month, brings good luck and prosperity. Karthika Masam is a favorite month for Lord Shiva among all other months. Devotees observe the map of Masu Vratham and perform various customs and rituals. It is believed that following these rituals leads them to a good life and reaches mox. Upawasams are performed every Monday. Dhanams as vastradhanam, Swarnadhanam, ghodhanamto give good results. Shiva Vishnu Rupaaya Shiva Rupaya Vishnawe.

  • Shravan/Shraavana
    Shravan/Shraavana Śrāva ṇa (Sanskrit: ावण ), (shraavan), (saavan) is the fifth month of the Hindu calendar. In India's national civil calendar, beginning in late July from the first day of the full moon and ending in the third week of August, the day of the next full moon. In lunar religious calendars, Śrāva ṇa begins on the new moon and is the fifth month of the year. *** according to the Gujarati Vikram Samovar calendar which starts with the month of Kartik, the Shravan month for Gujaratis is the tenth month of the calendar. This is also the 2nd month of Varsha (rainy) season. On Purnima or full moon day and during the course of the month the star 'Shravan' rules the sky; hence the month is called Shravan. This month is shrouded by several religious festivals and ceremonies and almost all the days of this month are auspicious. The month of Shravana is very important for the entire sub-continent of India as it is connected to the arrival of the South-West monsoons. For many people, the month of Shraavana is a month of fasting. Many people will fast every Monday (Somwar) to Lord Shiva and/or every Tuesday (Mangalwar) to the Goddess Parvati. Fasting on Tuesdays of this month is known locally as "Mangala Gauri Vrat" though all days during the Shravan month are considered auspicious. Shravana is considered to be a holy month in the Hindu calendar due to the many festivals that are celebrated during this time. VARALAKSHMI VRATAM This is a vrata which implies the worship of Goddess of wealth.
