| | Worship of Kartikeya (as during the festival of Skanda Shashti) is predominant in Tamil Nadu, where the god is considered a patron of the region. | | | Hindu holidays are also confined to particular regions by the importance a certain god enjoys. | | | The reasons for this lie deep, in the origin of Hinduism as an organic religion. |

| | The calendar is not used for secular purposes, but it determines most of the festivals of Hinduism, Theravada Buddhism and Jainism (Sikhs are in the process of moving over to a solar calendar). | | | The name of the month is determined by the position of the Sun at the moment of Dark Moon before the beginning of the month: there is a correspondence between month names and the signs of the Hindu sidereal zodiac. | | | Some of the festivals happen according to the position of the Sun, such as the Buddhist New Year, and I note these too. |

| | Rather, Hindus, like Jews, follow what is best described as a lunar-solar calendar because the measurement of time across the year is judged by both heavenly spheres and the play of the twelve zodiac signs as the Earth moves across its orbital plane. | | | In understanding the Hindu calendar it is important to recognize the role that the fortnights play because dates are recorded in terms of both their month and their fortnight. | | | For the Hindu liturgical calendar, the week begins on Monday--as it does in much of continental Europe--rather than Sunday as it does in many English-speaking regions of the world. |

| | Furthermore, the Hindu calendar does speak in cosmic terms -- and it establishes the age of the universe as some 8.64 billion years, which fits in with modern, scientific cosmology (see Carl Sagan at http://www.rediff.com/news/jan/29sagan.htm). | | | I understand that the Indian government has denoted this year of the Hindu calendar as the Year of Sanskrit. | | | It turns out, however, that Hindu texts do fairly accurately describe historical celestial events -- for instance the singular planetary configuration that is supposed to have taken place in 3102 BCE to mark the beginning of the Kali Yuga did in fact take place. |
