Dear brother/sister,
You would be glad to know that the “ Putra Kameshti Mahayagya” the historic event was successfully organised at Sri Ram Mandir , Sector 7, Dwarka, New Delhi, on 19-20th January 2008 by the Lokakshema International Mission Trust. 36 couples participated in this Mahayagya from various parts of the country and abroad. We pray the almighty to bless them and fulfil their desires. We invite others who could not participate in the function to register themselves for future programmes. We also take this opportunity to invite all of you to kindly seek redressal of all problems with spiritual guidance of Shri Guruji through this news letter by email at lokakshemamission@gmail.com or by contacting the Delhi Office on mobile no 09868369793. The participant couples are also requested to update us with the progress so as to enable us to offer prayers and advice.

The Trust also distributed notebooks, stationery and sweets to about 1000 children of weaker section in Inder Puri and Khanpur MCD Primary schools and Shri Guruji blessed the children for a bright future.

We are planning to conduct a series of programmes during 2008 the announcements would be made from time to time and you will all be informed by email. In case you feel that the activities of the Trust would be beneficial to your friends and relatives you may forward this news letter to them and ask them to get in touch with us. We also welcome all like minded humans to join us in the noble cause of Serving Humanity through various charitable programmes that are being planned by the Trust.

On the request of many disciples of Guruji for solving marriage related problems of their children and others Guruji has consented to perform a Mahayagya for removal of obstacles that delayed the marriage of the participants or their close relatives. The registration amount for the Mahayagya is proposed at Rs 3000 per participant to meet out the expenditure of the Mahayagya which is estimated around Rs1.50 lakh. We also welcome organisations/companies/businessmen to sponsor the events of the Trust and also donate liberally to encourage us to strive harder for noble cause.

A brief is given about the Mahayagya in which Swayamvara Parvathy Yagya would be the main yagya.

Swayamvara Parvathy Yagya dedicated to goddess Parvathy. The worship of a chosen deity is indispensable for any person in attaining ones desires. Even though God is one, ancient seers have given us various forms of worship for the upliftment of ordinary mortals. Among these various forms of worships, most prominent is that of Shakti or the Divine Mother. The divine mother took the incarnation of Goddess Parvati in order to get married to Lord Shiva. None other than Lord Shiva himself gave the Swayamvara Parvati mantra to Goddess Parvati. This enabled her to reunite with her divine consort. By performing the Swayamvara Parvati Yagya, various obstacles that delay any marriage are removed. The eligible bride or groom is blessed with suitable spouse'

As it was done during this function registrations would be done in advance and interested persons may deposit Rs 3000 with any of the representatives of the Trust. You may also contact the office of the Trust at Inderpuri, New Delhi

Shri Gurubhyo Namaha
Om Kula Devatabhyo Namo Namaha Om Parashakti Namo Namaha

With the grace of Shri Guruji let us continue the journey.
Shri Guruji has been performing miracles silently and he never publicises or promotes himself. He rather believes that he has been sent on a special mission to this world by Goddess Parashakti and he need not take any credits for the deeds of Goddess Parashakti who uses his him as her tool to do certain tasks. I asked him like many people would have that why he doesn’t wear saffron robes, rudraksha malas, sphatika malas, etc which symbolises religious and spiritual leaders? He simply smiled and replied that he does not want any show or pomp and would be a simpleton at the lotus feet of Goddess Parashakti and she too has accepted to his wishes.

I keep on pestering him with questions with the curiosity of a child, but he is always very patient and tells me lot of things and advises me to leave all the questions and think only of “Lokakshema” welfare of the universe. Even then I thought of some humour and said “You mean Lokakshema Trust”?

He said why not? , when you do the work of the Trust of the loka i.e. the world you will earn their trust towards you and you are committed to selfless service through Lokakshema Trust rendering various services to the people, they too would become a part of the Lokakshema Trust.

I did not understand a word of it. So I said, Guruji, I am not able to understand what you said. He smiled and said ’’ Lokakshema Trust is the trust of the people , by the people and for the people and when we expand our mission to countries beyond our own it becomes an international mission and becomes Lokakshema International Mission Trust where people from all walks of life without any distinction of caste, creed, colour, nationality or religion work towards one mission and goal of welfare of the th universe i.e Lokakshema”.

Is it possible, Guruji?

Why not? When you have firm belief in a thing and think positively towards achieving it , sooner or later you achieve it depending upon the firmness of your belief and efforts put in by you. When you are doing it for Lokakshema the divine forces help you in every step and help comes from unknown sources to make your job easy.

I believe in you , Guruji but as of today there is no fund with the Trust we have to conduct this Putra Kameshti Mahayagya on January 19-20 and even the participants are not registering (this was on 5th January 2008) I am little confused and worried as to how we can manage the function which would need at least one lakh rupees.

He simply smiled and said, it is Goddess Parashakti’s orders you just do your Karma as Arjuna did on Kurukshetra, it is really a test for your endurance and belief and mark my words you will say that Guruji , we’ve achieved it and we have a surplus after making all payments. The participants will come in next few days and slowly your collections will pick up , people would come forward to help you.

And believe it or not there was no looking back after that and all of us me , Mr. Ramesh, Mr Arasu, Mr. Deepak, Mr. Seetharaman, Mr. Venkatesh all were trying our best to encourage each other and when the D’Day came we were not clear about the fund position but we thought that we could manage the Show. Shri Sundaresan called from Vikaspuri and told me that he would arrange 50 Kg rice and 15 Kg sugar , Shri Rajagopala Sastrigal promised to take care of Annadhana expenditure for both days and we could not believe it, yet our faith in our Guru and his faith in Goddess Parashakti carried us through the turmoil and changed our expressions to one of ecstasy. Today everything looks like a dream. Ask any one participated or attended the function they will vouch for it. Today we are blindly following Guruji’s instructions and arranging for functions, programmes, charities, annadhanam, bhandaras, etc as we know that we are going to successfully conduct each and every function with his blessings.

Our next function is listed below

Swami Vivekananda Says-
"Ay, when a man has begun to hate himself, then the last blow has come. When a man has begun to be ashamed of his ancestors, the end has come. Here am I, one of the least of the Hindu race, yet proud of my race, proud of my ancestors. I am proud to call myself a Hindu. I am proud that I am one of your worthy servants. I am proud that I am a countryman of yours, you the descendents of the sages, you the descendents of the most glorious Rishis the world ever saw. Therefore, have faith in yourself and be proud of your ancestors, instead of being ashamed of them.

QUOTE OF THE DAY:
It is only work that is done as freewill offering to humanity and to nature that does not bring with it any binding attachment.- Swami Vivekananda, Complete Works, 5:239

History of Calendars
Overview
When a calendar reform was brought under way in India in the 1950s, 30 calendars of over-regional significance were counted on the subcontinent. This diversity made it hard to implement any reform, and the National Calendar eventually proposed did not make it into civil or religious life. Besides the calendars described in this article, the Islamic calendar is used by Muslims in India.
The basic elements of Indian calendars - with the exception of the Islamic calendar - are similar but subject to various variations. The calendars are based on computations simulating the apparent movement of sun and moon. With different assumptions for the length of months and years in use there are many differing variations of calendars. Furthermore, there are many regionally different months names and beginnings of the year and many eras in use. Thus this article must be understood as giving a basic structure of Indian calendars without describing a certain calendar actually used.
Time Units
Unlike most of the other calendars Indian calendars do not employ the solar year and day (i. e. tropical year and solar day) but the respective sidereal units. Thus, the cylindrical year is based on the sidereal year defined as the time between two successive passes of the sun through a certain star's circle of declination. Lunar days and sidereal months are also used, and in certain funicular calendars lunar year and lunar month are taken into account, too.
Year Length
Astronomical knowledge of Ancient India was written down in scientific treatises, called siddhântas. In them, values for the lengths of months and years were given representing the latest knowledge at the time the siddhânta was written. The values range from 365.258681 days in the Âryabhatiya(1) to 365.258756 days in the Sûrya-siddhânta(2) and are all too long compared with the modern sidereal year length of 365.25636 days. Nevertheless they are still in use for Indian calendars today.
The beginning of the year is slowly moving with respect to the actual weather conditions. Although this was known in Ancient India already there have never been attempts to introduce the tropical year as the basic unit for the calendar.
Month Length
Most lunisolar calendars including the Jewish calendar and the lunar calendar employed for the determination of Easter, use the lunar month as the basic time unit. In different Indian lunisolar calendars the lunar month is used, mixed with the sidereal month. The latter is about two day shorter than the former with different values given in the siddhântas.
Tithi
Unique is the definition of a lunar day having a mean length of about 22.5 seconds shorter than that of the solar day.
In the course of a synodic month the angle between sun and moon is growing from 0° at new moon to 180° at full moon and finally to 360° at the next full moon, the angle measured in the same direction during the whole month. This full circle of 360° is divided into 30 equal divisions of 12° each. The time it takes the angle between sun and moon to increase 12° is defined as a lunar day or tithi. The 30 divisions having the same size, a tithi has a mean length of 1/30 of a synodic month or about 23 hours 37 minutes and 28 seconds. However the actual length of the tithis as well as the solar days vary due to the irregularities in the movements of sun and moon.
Paksha
Every lunar month consists of two halves of 15 tithis each. The "bright" half (shuklapaksha) starts with the new moon, the "dark" half (krishnapaksha) with full moon.
With these time units a calendar system was developed which at a first glance seems to be quite intricate. However the basic rules are quite simple and clear. Because of the innumerable variations, different lengths of months, years, beginnings of the year and month, and names of months it is not possible to derive reliable calculation algorithms.
Ritu
Finally, the year consists of six seasons, called ritu, of two months each.

Star Constellations
Nakshâtras
For lunisolar calendars, the ecliptic was dividied into 27 nakshâtras (Lunar Houses) characterized by certain constellations. The number 27 was choses so as to correspond roughly to the number of days in a sidereal month, making the moon pass a nakshâtra each day approximately. Sequence and names of the nakshâtras and the stars the constellations are formed of are shown in the following table.

These constellations were in use at the beginning of the first millenium BC already, it seems. Later, astronomers inserted a 28th nakshâtra between Uttarashadha and Shravana called Abhijit and consisting of the stars α, ε, and ζ Lyrae.
Zodiacal Signs and Sankrântis
Twelve zodiacal signs play a certain role in solar calendars and had their origin in the classical world of the eastern Mediterranean. Such a sankrânti got names in Sanskrit, the classical language of ancient India, but never could replace the nakshâtras. The Sanskrit names and the corresponding zodiacal signs are shown in the following table.

The sun's entry into one of these signs is also called sankrânti, e. g. Mesha-sankrânti for the entry into the first one. The astronomical beginning of the year coincides with the Mesha-sankrânti. The first day that begins after the Mesha-sankrânti is taken to be the first of the new new, however, there are regionally different reckonings here, too. Since the sections of the ecliptic are of equal size (i. e. 30°) and the sun's apparent velocity is not constant, month lengths vary from 29 days up to 32 days. The time the sun needs to pass through such a section ranges from 29.4 days to 31.6 days.
Lunisolar Calendars
A year of these calendars consists of twelve or thirteen months strictly bound to the moon's phases. A special feature of Indian calendars is that, besides of the insertion of a leap month, sometimes a month is omitted; even single days are intercalated or extracalated. The rules for that are not as complicated as they may seem.
Month Names
The names of the months are determined taking into account nakshâtras as well as sankrântis. Every sankrânti was assigned a nakshâtra from which the name of the month was derived. The months were given the name according to the last sankrânti before the new moon of the respective lunation following the table below. The lunation with the new moon occuring after the Mîna-sankrânti (and, therefore, before the Mesha-sankrânti) is called Chaitra. The lunation with the new moon between Mesha-sankrânti and Vrishabha-sankrânti Vaishâkha etc. The table shows seasons, names and sequence of the months and the sankrânti before the respective lunation's new moon.

In southern India months end with the new moon, whereas in northern India months are beginning end ending with new moons.
Intercalation
From the rules for assigning names to months a pattern for insertion or omission of leap months follows. The time it takes the (notional) sun to pass a sankrânti interferes in one of the following ways with the synodic month: -
· The maximum time between two successive sankrântis is 31.6 days and therefore longer than the minimum time between two successive new moons (about 29.3 days). Thus, two new moons can occur between two successive sankrântis. If so, the two months of the lunisolar calendar bear the same name, the first one with adhika (="added"), the second with nija (="normal") placed before the name, e. g. adhika Chaitra und nija Chaitra. This results in an inserted leap month.
· The minimum time between two successive sankrântis (29.4 days) is shorter than than the maximum time between two successive new moons (about 29.3 days) so that no new moon occurs between two successive sankrântis. That means that two sankrântis occur between two new moons. Consequently, a month is extracalated in this case. This, however, is far less frequent than the first one.
· Theoretically a new moon and the sun's entry into a sankrânti can occur at exactly the same time. For this case, the Arab mathematician al-Biruni (973-1048) states that the month ending at that new moon is the intercalary month. The beginning month (i. e. the one following the intercalated one) is not named according to the sankrânti the sun is entering at the time of the new moon, following the rule that the name is derived from the last nakshâtra before the new moon.
The result of these rules is a leap year pattern similar to that of the Metonic cycle.
Designation of Days
The solar calendar simply designates days within months by their number. In lunisolar calendars a more complicated system is employed. Single days can be inserted or left out.
A lunar month consists of 30 tithis which are numbered within a half month (paksha) from 1 to 15. A day is designated with the number of the tithi in which the sunrise of that day occurs. In most cases, this leads to a "normal" sequence of numbers though occasionally there are tithi numbers omitted (kshaya-tithi) or repeated (adhika-tithi) for reasons similar to the rules for inter-/extracalating months. Numbers are more frequently omitted than repeated because the mean tithi length is shorter than that of a solar day(3).
Beginning of the Year
There are different customs for fixing the beginning of a new year. In some areas the year is begun with Chaitra, in others with Kârttika. Furthermore, different beginnings of the month are in use. In south India the month begins with the day after new moon mainly, whereas in the north full moon day is considered to be the first day of a new month.
Unlike the Islamic calendar, these lunisolar calendars are not observation-based. Obviously profound astronomical knowledge is necessary for the pre-computation of such a calendar. There is a great variety in the actual implementation of the calendars described here. The transformation if historic dates in most cases can be done only with an accuracy of within a month.
Solar Calendar
Solar calendars are in use in India since the 4th century CE and came to India from the Hellenistic world. The lunar calendars were not replaced by the solar ones though, and the solar date was mentioned alongside the lunar date to avoid misinterpretations. The Indian solar calendars are based on the sidereal year unlike most of the other solar calendars using the tropical year. Although the astronomers in ancient India were aware of the slow precession of the vernal equinox the solar calendars were never adjusted.
The months take their names from the zodiacal signs and have varying mean lengths due to the inconstant apparent movement of the sun throughout the year. The table below shows sequence, names, and mean lengths of the months. However, there are regional variations.

* There are slightly differing values in the siddhântas.
Every month begins with the day of the first sunrise after the notional beginning of the month.
Indian National Calendar
In the 1950s, the Indian government tried to introduce a reformed calendar with a basic structure similar to the Gregorian calendar. The months were given the names of the traditional solar calendar months and fixed lengths. The leap year pattern was adjusted to the Gregorian calendar. Names, sequence, and lengths of the months can be seen in the following table.
New Year, i. e. 1 Chaitra, falls on 22 March in common years, on 21 March in leap years. Thus, a certain Indian national calendar date corresponds to a certain Gregorian calendar date except of the period from 10 Phâlguna to 21 Vaishâkha, or 29 February to 20 April (inclusively) in which the Indian national calendar date is one higher in leap years. The year is 77 (before 21/22 March) or 78 less than the Gregorian year.
This calendar could not replace the many calendars used in India, and the Gregorian calendar is employed for dating newspapers or documents. Holidays are determined according to the traditional calendars.
Year Counts and Epochsr
A sequential numbering of years is not documented until the 1st century BCE. If the year was specified at all, regal years of the respective ruler or king were used. The growing influences from Europe and China the concept of counting years from a certain era came to India with the result of many different eras.
The Vikrama era (58 BCE) takes its name from a so far unidentified king Vikramâditya who is said to have driven the Shaka out of Ujjayinî, a town in northern India. King Chandra Gupta II bore the title Vikramâditya and freed Ujjayinî from the Shaka ruled about 400 years later.
The Shaka era begins in 78 CE and is said to have been founded by a Shaka who re-conquered Ujjayinî 137 years after Vikramâditya. This era was used first in western India (Mâlwâ, Kâthiâwâr und Gujarât) and later spread over the whole Indian subcontinent and to South East Asia. It is also the era of the Indian national calendar.
For certain periods fo time other eras were popular, e. g. the Gupta, Harsha, and the Kalachuri eras. See also Epochs and Eras.
