This calendar is specially prepared for the Greater Seattle area, and it may not be applicable in other parts of the world. All time presented here is adjusted for Daylight Saving Time. People usually align the Hindu festivals with the English dates based on the Indian calendar. They think that if an Indian calendar says Janmasthami on a certain date, say September nd 0, then it will appear as September nd everywhere in the world. The USA is :0 to 1:0 hours behind India, so some people will think it will also come the next day in the USA, i.e. September rd 0. They also argue that their family priest in India has told them to celebrate on this particular date and according to him the Indian calendar will apply to all places in the world. This is a completely wrong assumption. If the Earth was flat then you can use Indian calendar everywhere as sunrise sunset will happen all places equally. We won t have any timezones and the world will have only one timezone. Surya Siddhanta, Maharishi Vashistha, Bhaskaracharya taught us to prepare the panchangam based on the longitude, latitude of the place you live for these reasons you cannot bring a calendar from India and use abroad. The English date and changes at midnight; whereas the Hindu date (or Tithi) and day does not change at midnight. Hindu day changes at Sunrise. All days are from one Sunrise to another Sunrise. Sunday will start at one Sunrise and end at the next Sunrise.The Hindu date the Tithi changes depending on the position of the Sun and Moon. It can change anytime between two Sunrises. That is to say that if Prathama Tithi ends today at :0 it does not mean that Dwitiya Tithi will end tomorrow at the same time. It can end at 1:00, 1:0 or later. Tithi: In the lunar calendar the Moon takes a month for each revolution around the Earth. The lunar calendar is divided into two groups called Pakshas. The first one is called Krishna Paksha (or dark fortnight) or wanning moon. The second is called Shukla Paksha (or bright fortnight) or waxing moon. Each Paksha is divided into 1 Tithis. The first 1 Tithis are the Sanskrit numbers from 1 to 1 (Prathama, Dvithiya etc). The 1th Tithi of Shukla Paksha is Poornima (full Moon) & the 1th of the Krishna Paksha is Amavasya (Moon is not visible as it is closest to the Sun). Lunar Month: A lunar month consists of 0 Tithis and each Tithi then corresponds to the time taken by the Moon to move 1 degrees with respect to the Sun. Krishna Paksha Tithis are in the darker color and Shukla Paksha Tithis are mentioned in the red color. Names of lunar months are Chaitra, Vaishakh, Jyestha, Ashadha, Shravana, Bhadrapada, Ashwayuja, Kartika, Margasira, Pushya, Maha, and Phalguna. Solar Month: A solar month begins when the Sun leaves one rasi and moves into the next. The solar month names are based on 1 signs, they are Mesha, Vrishbha, Mithuna, Karka, Simha, Kanya, Tula, Vrischika, Dhanush, Makara, Kumbha, and Mina. This system is widely used in Tamilnadu, Kerala, West Bengal, Orrisa, Punjab and Assam. Nakshatra: The path of the moon around earth is divided into segments or Nakshatras. A nakshatra changes when the moon leaves one of these segments and enters the next. Nakshatras are in italics. They are Ashwini, Bharani, Kritika, Rohini, Mrisgashirsh, Ardra, Punarvasu, Pushya, Ashlesha, Magha, Poorva Phalguni, Uttara Phalguni, Hasta, Chitra, Swati, Vishakha, Anuradha, Jyestha, Moola, Poorva Shadha, Uttara Shadha, Shravan, Dhanishtha, Shatabhisha, Poorva Bhadra, U.ttara Bhadra and Revati. Timings listed in the Calendar: The Tithi & Nakshatra times indicate a time when the Tithi or Nakshatra ends. The Panchanga uses the Vedic definition of a day, i.e., A day starts with Sunrise and ends with the subsequent Sunrise. Thus, a Tithi with a time of :00 indicates that the Tithi ends past midnight but before the next Sunrise at :00 AM (:00 :00) on the next calendar day. Hence :00 means 00:00 hours of the next day, :00 means 1:00 AM of the next day, and :00 means :00 AM of the next day. This is standard time notation for any Panchangam. The time for Sun s samkramana is when Sun will enter that rasi or sign on that day. e.g. Makara : means Sun is entering Makara rasi at hour minute. All other times are the ending times. Rahukalam / Sunrise / Sunset Table: This calendar has rahukalam, sunrise & sunset table as well. These are calculated for Greater Seattle area. How festival dates are determined? The usual rule to observe a festival is to check the Tithi prevailing at the Sunrise. Each festival has different rules. For example Ganesha Chaturthi has to be oserved when the Chaturthi Tithi is observed during the th/1th part of the dinmana. The dinmana is the difference between local Sunset and Sunrise. If Chaturthi is not prevailing during that period then take the second day. For example, if one Tithi is observed at moonrise in India it may or may not exist during moonrise on the same day in a different part of the world. If you are in America then it will be observed on previous day or the next day if you are in Japan, Fiji, Australia and other countries. For example if a total lunar eclipse is visible in India at :00 AM it will happen on the previous day in the USA. For these reasons Indian Panchangam you bring from India cannot be used outside of India. Uttarayana / Dakshinayana: The season occur based on earth s position around the Sun. This is due to Earth s tilt of. degrees. The Earth circles around Sun with this tilt. When the tilt is facing the Sun we get summer and when the tilt is away from the Sun we get winter. Because of this tilt it seems like the Sun travels north and south of the equator. The Uttarayana is the Sun appearing to move north. The Dakshinayana is the Sun appearing to move towards South. This causes rise to seaons and dependent on equinoxes and solstices. There is a common misconception that Makar Samkranti is the Uttarayana. This is because at one point in time Sayana and Nirayana Zodiac were same. Every year equinoxes slides by 0 seconds due to precision of equinoxes, giving birth to Ayanamsha and causing Makar Samkranti to slide further. As a result if you think Makar Samkranti is uttarayana then as it is sliding it will come in June after 000 years. However Makar Samkranti still holds importance in our rituals as a Samkranti. All Drika Panchanga makers will use the position of the tropical Sun to determine Uttarayana and Dakshinayana. Hence January 1 th isn t Uttarayana. Actual Uttarayana occurs on December 1 st / nd of every year. For more details please visit or write to shastriji@mypanchang.com.

17 Differences in Festival dates between India and USA Pundit Mahesh Shastriji Panchang Ganitha and Siddhanta mypanchang.com The Indian Calendar/Panchangam is used everywhere where Hindu people live. I even see people posting, I want pambu Panchangam, but I live in the USA and it is not available. The question then arises: Can Indian Panchangam be used outside of India?. If you think the Earth is flat then you can use your favourite Indian panchangam/calendar outside of USA. But if you agree with Varahamihira and Aryabhatta, and other scientiests that the Earth is round then you will not use your favourite Indian panchang/calendar outside of India. Please read why. People usually align the Hindu festivals with the English dates based on the Indian calendar. They then think that if an Indian calendar says Janmasthami on a certain date, say September nd 0, then it will appear as September nd everywhere in the world. The USA is :0 to 1:0 hours behind India, so some people will think it will also come the next day in the USA, i.e. September rd 0. They also argue that their family priest in India has told them to celebrate on this particular date and according to him the Indian calendar will apply to all places in the world. This is a completely wrong assumption. The English date and day (Sunday, Monday, Tuesday etc..) changes at midnight; whereas the Hindu date (or Tithi) and day does not change at midnight. Hindu days change at Sunrise. All days are from one Sunrise to another Sunrise. Sunday will start at one Sunrise and end at the next Sunrise. The Hindu date (or Tithi -- depending on the position of the Sun and Moon at any given time) changes as celestial bodies move. It can change anytime between two Sunrises. That is to say that if Prathama Tithi ends today at :0 it does not mean that Dwitiya Tithi will end tomorrow at the same time. It can end at 1:00, 1:0 or : (anytime after means after midnight but before the next Sunrise). Now what's the Hindu date (Tithi)? It is simple. A Tithi is a lunar day, or the time it takes for the longitudinal angle between the Sun and the Moon to increase by 1. Tithis begin at varying times of day and vary in duration from approximately 1 to hours. So the maximum distance between the Sun and the Moon can be 0 degrees. If you divide them by 1 degrees giving you 0 equal parts. This means that we have 0 dates in the Hindu calendar divided between the bright half (Shukla Paksha, Waxing Moon), and the dark half (Krishna Paksha, Waning Moon). Panchangam contains two types of calculations. One is based on the local coordinates like longitude and latitude (Sunrise, Sunset, Moonrise, Moonset, etc), and the other is based on geocentric planetary positions. Sunrise, Sunset, Moonrise, Moonset times are always calculated for each and every place on the Earth. Local Sunrise, Sunsets are used to find the daily Rahukalam, Yamagandam, Gulikai, and Durmuhurtham times. The other set of calculations are calculated from the center of the Earth (geocentric). The positions of heavenly bodies are calculated from the center of the Earth and hence they are geocentric. The planetary positions are first calculated from the center of the Sun (heliocentric) and then using the spherical trigonometry they are converted to the center of the Earth (geocentric). The Tithi, Nakshatra, Yoga, Karana and daily planetary positions are based on the positions of the Sun and Moon in the heavens and they are part of the astronomical phenomenon. These are astronomical phenomenon which happensinstantly at the same moment on Earth, and hence the Tithi and Nakshatra will end at the same time all over the world. We have to, therefore, convert them to the local standard time of the specific country of interest. When an eclipse occurs and is visible all over the world, the time of occurrence is converted into each country s local time zone. The planets do not wait for Sunrise or Sunset at the particular place. They just keep moving, like Earth is moving around the Sun. These planetary positions of the Sun and the Moon are computed based on the local time (longitude, latitude) converted to the Universal Time. The Tithi end time is also calculated in the Universal Time which is then converted to the local time of the place. The planets are calculated from the center of the Earth and their positions at the given time will be the same all over the world. In the same way, whenever any celestial event occurs we need to convert it to our local time zone. Indian Panchang makers convert this to Indian time. The same say we need to convert it to our time zone for America (PST/PDT, CST/CDT, MST/MDT, EST/EDT). After adding the time difference we get the resulting English date and time when they end. Hence, when the calendar is made for India the date they mention is when that Tithi will end as per the English date in India. If we take the same date and time use it anywhere in the world as it is then we will have wrong results. For example: On October 1th 00 the Ashwayuja (Ashwin) Krishna Paksha/ Poornimant Kartik Krishna Paksha Tithi Tritiya ends at 1::1 Indian Standard Time, and Charturthi starts. That means at 1:00 hours there is Tritiya still prevailing in India. Now on October 1th 00 in Seattle, WA at the 1:00 hours we won't have Tritiya at that time. We already have Chaturthi started. Planets keep on moving... 1 hours have passed and the position of Sun and Moon have changed. So what time will Tritiya end in Seattle? The time difference is 1 hours 0 minutes (with one of our Daylight Saving Time it gives the difference of 1 hours 0 minutes from IST). So, let's subtract 1 hours 0 minutes from the 1::1. That gives us 0:0:1 AM on October 1th. So on October 1th after that time we'll have Chaturthi Tithi and before we have Tritiya. The same way if Tithi ends at : AM on Septemer 1 in India it will end at 0:0 PM on September th in Seattle. The same way Western Australia is hours ahead of GMT and hence the Chaturthi will end there at 1:0 PM on September 1th. The planets do not wait for the appropriate Tithi to arrive on some English date at any location in the world. If it did we would not have any days and nights (if it were to happen then celestial bodies would remain static in sky). The Earth is round and it keeps moving, so we have days and nights. It does not wait for Tithi or festivals. Time never waits for anyone. It goes on. The Sun does not rise instantly at the same time all over the world. Hence we need to convert the Tithi, Nakshatra, Yoga, and Karana time to local standard time. Now we know what time a given Tithi ends, so now it is time to decide festival dates for each region. How festivals are determined? The usual rule to observe a festival for a particular day, check which Tithi prevails at that Sunrise. Each festival has different rules of observance. For example: Ganesh Chaturthi. Sankathara (Sankshathi Chauth) Chaturthi, Janmashtami, Mahashivaratri, Karwa Chauth, etc... For example Ganesha Chaturthi has to be oserved when the Chaturthi Tithi is observed during the th/1th part of the dinmana or the /th part of the dinmana. The dinmana is the difference between local Sunset and Sunrise on the same day. If Chaturthi is not prevailing during that period then take the second day. Likewise for the Karwa Chauth and the the Chaturthi Tithi must be prevailing during the moonrise time, if it does not prevail then take the day where it prevails during the sunrise. Rules to determine Shraddha Tithi are different. For example, if one Tithi is observed at moonrise in India it may or may not exist during moonrise on the same day in a different part of the world. It may be very well observed on the previous day if you are in America or the next day if you are in Japan, Fiji, Australia and other countries. America is behind India in terms of time. To arrive at the time in India we need to subtract the time from Indian time and hence festivals could arrive a day early in USA but not later. For example if a total lunar eclipse is visible in India at :00 AM it will happen on the previous day in the USA. For these reasons Indian Panchangam you buy in India cannot be used outside of India.
