Guest guest Posted July 5, 2005 Report Posted July 5, 2005 Namaste to all, Thanks to ecjensen_us for your post on the moon. Just wanted to make a small correction about Guru Purnima. According to our Panchang Guru Purnima will be on Wednesday July 20. Sometimes the western calendars put the full moon on a different day than the panchang. Since today is the new moon tomorrow will start the month of aashadh shukla which is the first day of the summer navaratri. It is a good time to take a sankalpa if you don't have one or increase your sankalpa if you already have one. Try to dedicate a little extra time to Divine Mother during this time with puja, chanting, mantra japa, meditation, or singing....... The navaratri will start from July 6-July 15. God bless you all with peace.

Guest guest Posted July 5, 2005 Report Posted July 5, 2005 Namaskar, I'm a bit confused. My Indian calander has today as being Amavasya which would make tomarrow a new moon. Perhaps there is a time difference in this calander, which is from india, can someone clarify this for me. Thanks --- Kala Chandra <kalachandra2003 wrote: > Thanks dear Parvati.

Guest guest Posted July 5, 2005 Report Posted July 5, 2005 OM NAMAH SIVAYA it seems it should be something that involves the Guru with Guru Purnima coming. i would leave if to others to reccommend a sadhana. but one part of the Guru Gita that keeps sticking in my head is "the Guru is the cause of all circumstance." this is so intriguing to me. as a result i have been playing a little game with myself. i have been looking for just one example a day of the Guru being the cause of circumstance. it is been surprisingly easy and i often find more than one. just an idea?
