Significance of the Hindu Calendar
The Hindu Calendar, or Panchang, is an ancient lunisolar system used to determine auspicious timings, festivals, and religious rituals. It aligns with the movements of both the Sun and the Moon.
Key Components
- Tithi: The lunar day, crucial for determining festivals.
- Nakshatra: The lunar mansion, influencing astrology.
- Yoga & Karana: Auspicious and inauspicious periods.
