HOW TO READ THIS CALENDARThis is a Hindu Kartiki Calendar specially designed for Fiji and New Zealand. A month begins with Pratipada of Shukla Paksha as per Shukladi system of calculation.

There are ten columns on each page. These are as follows from left:Tithi, Time, Nakshatra, Time, Rashi, Time, Date, Day, Auspicious Day and notes. Ending time for Tithi, Nakshatra and Rashi are given in hours and minutes. (e.g.: 15.23 is 3.23pm and 27.40 is 3.40am of the next day.)Tithi, Nakshatra and Rashi time are mentioned in Fiji Standard Time according to rules and with referance from “Dharma Sindhu”, an authoritative book for Tithi calculation. These Tithi are equally effective for New Zealand. Deduct 2 hours to convert it to Australian time. Daylight saving time should be adjusted accordingly.

Those who follow CHAITRI CALENDAR should note the following.In Chaitri calendar a month begins with Pratipada of Krishna Paksha. This means a month changes at Krishna Paksha and not at Shukla Paksha as shown in this calendar. Therefore you need to change a month at Krishna Paksha. (e.g.: Posh Krishna will become Magh Krishna and so on) Compiled by: Manhar Narsey (for further information ph: 9916329)

Rules for Ram Navami: Lord Ram was born on Chaitra Shukla Navami in Punarvasu Nakshatra. Therefore Navami effective till mid-day (12.00 noon) should be considered. If Navami is either effective or not effective till mid-day on both days then the Navami of the second day should be considered aus-picious. Even if Navami on the first day is associated with Punarvasu Nakshatra, only Navami of the second day should be considered appropriate. Source: Vrat Raj, Dharm Sindhu, Nirnay Sindhu.

aumhindutvam

Swami Purnanandaji

A handbook of Hindu Dharm

Hindus outside India are beginning to become aware of the problems they have to face, par-ticularly in relation to their children. This is one of the areas in which “Aum Hindutvam” can be helpful. It can be conveniently used by parents to teach their children some basic things about their religion. This will help them to participate in discussions and debates rather then being silent spectators or being preached to. Copy of Aum Hinudtvam is available Free of Charge from Fiji Sevashram Sangha, Suva and Lautoka.

DECIPLINE AND TRAINING WITH FUNFiji Sevashram Camps are the most favourite amongst students of all age groups. Sangha organizes regular camps at Suva, Lautoka, Ba and Labasa each year where students are taught moral values, self defence, yoga etc.
