PREFACE. 


This  Volume  is  designed  for  the  use,  not  only  of  those  engaged  in  the  decypherment 
of  Indian  inscriptions  and  the  compilation  of  Indian  history,  but  also  of  Judicial  Courts  and 
Government  Ofifices  in  India.  Documents  bearing  dates  prior  to  those  given  in  any  existing 
almanack  are  often  produced  before  Courts  of  Justice  as  evidence  of  title ;  and  since  forgeries, 
many  of  them  of  great  antiquity,  abound,  it  is  necessary  to  have  at  hand  means  for  testing 
and  verifying  the  authenticity  of  these  exhibits.  Within  the  last  ten  years  much  light  has  been 
thrown  on  the  subject  of  the  Indian  methods  of  time-reckoning  by  the  pubHcations  of  Professor 
Jacobi,  Dr.  Schram,  Professor  Kielhorn,  Dr.  Fleet,  Pandit  Sahkara  Balkrishna  Dikshit,  and  others ; 
but  these,  having  appeared  only  in  scientific  periodicals,  are  not  readily  accessible  to  officials  in 
India.  The  Government  of  Madras,  therefore,  desiring  to  have  a  summary  of  the  subject  with 
Tables  for  ready  reference,  requested  me  to  undertake  the  work.  In  process  of  time  the  scheme 
was  widened,  and  in  its  present  shape  it  embraces  the  whole  of  British  India,  receiving  in  that 
capacity  the  recognition  of  the  Secretary  of  State  for  India.  Besides  containing  a  full  explanation 
of  the  Indian  chronological  system,  with  the  necessary  tables,  the  volume  is  enriched  by  a  set 
of  Tables  of  Eclipses  most  kindly  sent  to  me  by  Dr.  Robert  Schram  of  Vienna. 

In  the  earher  stages  of  my  labours  I  had  the  advantage  of  receiving  much  support  and 
assistance  from  Dr.  J.  Burgess  (late  Director-General  of  the  Arch.-eological  Survey  of  India)  to 
whom  I  desire  to  express  my  sincere  thanks.  After  completing  a  large  part  of  the  calculations 
necessary  for  determining  the  elements  of  Table  I.,  and  drawing  up  the  draft  of  an  introductory 
treatise,  I  entered  into  correspondence  with  Mr.  Sankara  Balkrishna  Dikshit,  with  the  result  that, 
after^a  short  interval,  we  agreed  to  complete  the  work  as  joint  authors.  The  introductory  treatise 
is  mainly  his,  but  I  have  added  to  it  several  explanatory  paragraphs,  amongst  others  those 
relating  to  astronomical  phenomena. 

Tables  XIV.  and  XV.  were  prepared  by  Mr.  T.  Lakshmiah  Naidu  of  Madras. 

It  is  impossible  to  over-estimate  the  value  of  the  work  done  by  Dr.  Schram,  which  renders 
it  now  for  the  first  time  easy  for  anyone  to  ascertain  the  incidence,  in  time  and  place,  of  every 
solar  eclipse  occurring  in  India  during  the  past  1600  years,  but  while  thus  briefly  noting  his  services 
in  the  cause  of  science,  I  cannot  neglect  this  opportunity  of  expressing  to  him  my  gratitude  for  his 
kindness  to  myself.

I  must  also  tender  my  warm  thanks  for  much  invaluable  help  to  Mr.  11.  11.  Turner,  Savilian 
Professor  of  Astronomy  at  Oxford,  to  Professor  Kiclhorn,  CLE.,  of  Gottingen,  and  to  Professor 
Jacobi. 

The  Tables  have  been  tested  and  re-tested,  and  we  believe  that  they  may  be  safely  relied 
on  for  accuracy.     No  pains  have  been  spared  to  secure  this  object. 

R.  SEWELL. 


II. 

It  was  only  in  September,  1893,  that  I  became  acquainted  with  Mr.  R.  Sewell,  after  he 
had  already  made  much  progress  in  the  calculations  necessary  for  the  principal  articles  of 
Table  I.  of  this  work,  and  had  almost  finished  a  large  portion  of  them. 

The  idea  then  occurred  to  me  that  by  inserting  the  a,  h,  c  figures  (cols.  23,  24,  and  25 
of  Table  I.)  which  Mr.  Sewell  had  already  worked  out  for  the  initial  days  of  the  luni-solar  years, 
but  had  not  proposed  to  print  in  full,  and  by  adding  some  of  Professor  Jacobi's  Tables  published 
in  the  Indian  Antiquary,  not  only  could  the  exact  moment  of  the  beginning  and  end  of  all  luni- 
solar  tithis  be  calculated,  but  also  the  beginning  and  ending  moments  of  the  nakshatra,  yoga, 
and  karana  for  any  day  of  any  year;  and  again,  that  by  giving  the  exact  moment  of  the  Mesha 
sankranti  for  each  solar  year  the  exact  European  equivalent  for  every  solar  date  could  also  be 
determined.  I  therefore  proceeded  to  work  out  the  details  for  the  Mesha  sankrantis,  and  then 
framed  rules  and  examples  for  the  exact  calculation  of  the  required  dates,  for  this  purpose 
extending  and  modifying  Professor  Jacobi's  Tables  to  suit  my  methods.  Full  explanation  of  the 
mode  of  calculation  is  given  in  the  Text.  The  general  scheme  was  originally  propounded  by 
M.  Largeteau,  but  we  have  to  thank  Professor  Jacobi  for  his  publications  which  have  formed 
the  foundation  on  which  we  have  built. 

My  calculation  for  the  moments  of  Mesha  sankrantis,  of  mean  intercalations  of  months 
(Mr.  Sewell  worked  out  the  true  intercalations),  and  of  the  samvatsaras  of  the  cycle  of  Jupiter 
were  carried  out  by  simple  methods  of  my  own.  Mr.  Sewell  had  prepared  the  rough  draft  of 
a  treatise  giving  an  account  of  the  Hindu  and  Muhammadan  systems  of  reckoning,  and  collecting 
much  of  the  information  now  embodied  in  the  Text.  But  I  found  it  necessary  to  re-write  this, 
and  to  add  a  quantity  of  new  matter. 

I  am  responsible  for  all  information  given  in  this  work  which  is  either  new  to  European 
scholars,  or  which  differs  from  that  generally  received  by  them.  All  points  regarding  which 
any  difference  of  opinion  seems  possible  are  printed  in  footnotes,  and  not  in  the  Text.  They 
are  not,  of  course,  fully  discussed  as  this  is  not  a  controversial  work. 

Every  precaution  has  been  taken  to  avoid  error,  but  all  corrections  of  mistakes  which 
may  have  crept  in,  as  well  as  all  suggestions  for  improvement  in  the  future,  will  be  gladly  and 
thankfully  received.

THE   INDIAN    CALENDAR. 


PART   I. 


THE    HINDU    CALENDAR. 


1.  In  articles  ii8  to  134  below  are  detailed  the  various  uses  to  which  this  work  may 
be  applied.  Briefly  speaking  our  chief  objects  are  three;  firstly,  to  provide  simple  methods  for 
converting  any  Indian  date — luni-solar  or  solar — faUing  between  the  years  A.D.  300  and  1900 
into  its  equivalent  date  A.D.,  and  vice  versa,  and  for  finding  the  week-day  corresponding  to  any 
such  date;  secondly,  to  enable  a  speedy  calculation  to  be  made  for  the  determination  of  the  re- 
maining three  of  the  five  principal  elements  of  an  Indian /rt«r/^r?;>_f a  (calendar),  viz.,  th&  Jiakskatra, 
yoga,  and  karana,  at  any  moment  of  any  given  date  during  the  same  period,  whether  that  date  be 
given  in  Indian  or  European  style;  and  thirdly,  to  provide  an  easy  process  for  the  verification  of 
Indian  dates  falling  in  the  period  of  which  we  treat. 

2.  For  securing  these  objects  several  Tables  are  given.  Table  I.  is  the  principal  Table, 
the  others  are  auxiliary.  They  are  described  in  Part  III.  below.  Three  separate  methods  are 
given  for  securing  the  first  of  the  above  objects,  and  these  are  detailed  in  Part  IV. 

All  these  three  methods  are  simple  and  easy,  the  first  two  being  remarkably  so,  and  it  is  these 
which  we  have  designed  for  the  use  of  courts  and  offices  in  India.  The  first  method  (A)  {Arts.  135,  136) 
is  of  the  utmost  simplicity,  consisting  solely  in  the  use  of  an  eye-table  in  conjunction  with 
Table  I.,  no  calculation  whatever  being  required.  The  second  (B)  is  a  method  for  obtaining 
approximate  results  by  a  very  brief  calculation  [Arts.  137,  138)  by  the  use  of  Tables  I.,  III.  and 
IX.  The  result  by  both  these  methods  is  often  correct,  and  it  is  always  within  one  or  two  days 
of  the  truth,  the  latter  rarely.  Standing  by  itself,  that  is,  it  can  always,  provided  that  the  era 
and  the  original  bases  of  calculation  of  the  given  date  are  known,  be  depended  on  as  being 
within  two  days  of  the  truth,  and  is  often  only  one  day  out,  while  as  often  it  is  correct. 
When  the  week-day  happens  to  be  mentioned  in  the  given  date  its  equivalent,  always  under 
the   above    proviso,    can    be  fixed  correctly  by  either  of  these  methods.  ^     The  third  method  (C)

THE  INDIAN  CALENDAR. 


is  a  melliod  by  vliich  cntiiely  correct  results  may  be  obtained  by  the  use  of  Tables  1.  to  XI. 
{Arts.  1 39  to  1 60),  and  tlicugh  a  little  more  complicated  is  perfectly  simple  and  easy  when  once  studied 
and  upde.'st^'jod.  From  these  results  the  nakshatra,  yoga,  and  karana  can  be  easily  calculated. 

3.  Calculation  of  a  date  may  be  at  once  begun  by  using  Part  IV.  below,  but  the  process 
will  be  more  intelligible  to  the  reader  if  the  nature  of  the  Indian  calendar  is  carefully  explained 
to  him  beforehand,  for  this  is  much  more  intricate  than  any  other  known  system  in  use. 

Elements  and  Definitiotts. 

4.  The  pancJidiiga.  The  paiichaitga  (calendar),  ///.  that  which  has  five  {panchd)  limbs 
(aiigas).  concerns  chiefly  five  elements  of  time-division,  viz.,  the  vara,  tithi,  nakshatra,  yoga 
and  karana. 

5.  The  vara  or  week-day.  The  natural  or  solar  day  is  called  a  savana  divasa  in  Hindu 
Astronomy.  The  days  are  named  as  in  Europe  after  the  sun,  moon,  and  five  principal  planets,  ' 
and  are  called  varus  (week-days),  seven  of  which  compose  the  week,  or  cycle  of  varas.  A  vara 
begins  at  sunrise.  The  week-days,  with  their  serial  numbers  as  used  in  this  work  and  their 
various  Sanskrit  synonyms,  are  given  in  the  following  list.  The  more  common  names  are  given 
in  italics.     The  list  is  fairly  exhaustive  but  does  not  pretend  to  be  absolutely  so. 

Days  of  the  Week. 

1.  Sunday.  Adi,  -  Aditya,  Ravi,  Ahaskara,  Arka,  Aruna,  Bhattaraka,  Aharpati, 

Bhaskara,  Bradhna,  Bhanu  etc. 

2.  Monday.         J)(?;«rt,  Abja,  Chandramas,  Chandra,  Indu,  Nishpati,  Kshapakara,  etc. 

3.  Tuesday.        Mangala,  Aiigaraka,  Bhauma,  Mahisuta,  Rohitanga. 

4.  Wednesday.  Budha,  Baudha,  Rauhineya,  Saumya. 

5.  Thursday.      Guru,  Angirasa,  Brihaspati,  Dhishana,  Suracharya,  Vachaspati,  etc. 

6.  Friday.  Sukra,  Bhargava,  Bhrigu,  Daityaguru,  Kavya,  Usanas,  Kavi. 

7.  '  Saturday.      Sani,  Sauri,  Manda. 

Time-Divisions. 

6.  The  Indian  time-divisions.  The  subdivisions  of  a  solar  day  (sa'i'ana  divasa)  are  as  follow : 

A  prativipala  (sura)  is  equal  to  0.006  of  a  second. 

60  prativipalas   make    i   vipala  (para,  kashtha-kala)  —  0.4  of  a  second. 

60  vipalas  do.     1   pala  (vighati,  vinadi)  =  24  seconds. 

60  palas  do.     1   ghatika  (ghati,  danda,  nadi,  nadika)  =  24  minutes. 

60  ghatikas  do.     i  divasa  (dina,  vara,  vasara)  =   i   solar  day. 

Again 

10  vipalas  do.     i    prana  =.  4  seconds. 

6  pranas  do.     i   pala  =  24  seconds.

7.  Tlic  titlii,  aDiavasya,  purniind.  Tlic  nionieiit  of  new  moon,  or  that  point  of  time 
when  the  longitudes  of  the  sun  and  moon  are  equal,  is  called  aniavasya  (lit.  the  "dwelling 
together"  of  the  sun  and  moon).  A  titlii  is  the  time  occupied  by  the  moon  in  increasing  her 
distance  from  the  sun  by  12  degrees;  in  other  words,  at  the  exact  point  of  time  when  the  moon 
(whose  apparent  motion  is  much  faster  than  that  of  the  sun),  moving  eastwards  from  the  sun 
after  the  aniavasya,  leaves  the  sun  behind  by  12  degrees,  the  first  tithi,  which  is  called/^-^/i'/rtf/ff 
or  pratipad,  ends;  and  so  with  the  rest,  the  complete  synodic  revolution  of  the  moon  or  one 
lunation  occupying  30  tithis  for  the  360  degrees.  Since,  however,  the  motions  of  the  sun  and 
moon  are  always  varying  in  speed  ^  the  length  of  a  tithi  constantly  alters.  The  variations  in  the 
length  of  a  tithi  are  as  follow,  according  to  Hindu  calculations:

The  moment  of  full  moon,  or  that  point  of  time  when  the  moon  is  furthest  from  the  sun, — 
astronomically  speaking  when  the  difference  between  the  longitudes  of  the  sun  and  moon  amounts 
to  180  degrees — is  called  piirnima.  The  tithi  which  ends  with  the  moment  of  amavasya  is 
itself  called  "amavasya",  and  similarly  the  tithi  which  ends  with  the  moment  of  full  moon  is 
called  "purnima."     {For  further  details  see  Arts,  sg,  ji,  J2.) 

8.  T/ie  nakshatra.  The  27th  part  of  the  ecliptic  is  called  a  nakshatra,  and  therefore  each 
nakshatra  occupies  (^^=-  =)  1 3°  20'.  The  time  which  the  moon  (whose  motion  continually  varies 
in  speed)  or  any  other  heavenly  body  requires  to  travel  over  the  27th  part  of  the  ecliptic  is 
also  called  a  nakshatra.     The  length  of  the  moon's  nakshatra  is :

It  will  be  seen  from  this  that  the  moon  travels  nearly  one  nakshatra  daily.  The  daily 
nakshatra  of  the  moon  is  given  in  every  panchaiig  (native  almanack)  and  forms  one  of  its  five  articles. 
The  names  of  the  27  nakshatras  will  be  found  in  Table  VIIL,  column  7.     (See  Arts.  jS.  ^2.) 

9.  The  yoga.  The  period  of  time  during  which  thejoint  motion  in  longitude,  or  the  sum  of  the  mo- 
tions, of  the  sun  and  moon  is  increasedby  i3°2o',iscalledajY'^«, lit. "addition".   Its  length  varies  thus :

The  names  of  the  27  yogas  will  be  found  in  Table  VIIL,  col.    12.     (See  Art.  jp.J 

10.      The    karana.     A    karana    is   half  a  tithi,  or  the  time  during  which  the  difference  of 

the    longitudes  of  the  sun  and  moon  is  increased  by  6  degrees.     The  names    of  the  karanas  are 

given  in  Table  VIIL,  cols.  4  and   5.     (See  Art.  .f.0.) 

1  The  variation  is  of  coiu-st-  really  iu  the  motions  of  the  earth  and  the  moon.  It  is  cansed  by  aetual  alterations  in  rate  of 
rapidity  of  motion  in  consequence  of  the  elliptical  form  of  the  orbits  and  the  moon's  actual  perturbations;  and  by  apparent 
irregularities  of  motion  in  consequence  of  the  plane  of  the  moon's  orbit  being  at  an  angle  to  the  plane  of  the  ecliptic.     [R.  S.] 


4  THE  INDIAN  CALENDAR. 

11.  The  paksha.  The  next  natural  division  of  time  greater  than  a  solar  day  is  the />tf/^.y//<7 
(lit.  a  wing  ')  or  moon's  fortnight.  The  fortnight  during  which  the  moon  is  waxing  has  several  names, 
the  commonest  of  which  are  sukla  or  iwrt'^/^rt  (lit.  "  bright ",  that  during  which  the  period  of  the  night 
following  sunset  is  illuminated  in  consequence  of  the  moon  being  above  the  horizon).  The  fortnight 
during  which  the  moon  is  waning  \s  c-aA&<\  Tao?X  con\mov\y  krishna  o\  baltula  ox  vady a  (lit.  "  black", 
"dark",  or  the  fortnight  during  which  the  portion  of  the  night  following  sunset  is  dark  in  consequence 
of  the  moon  being  below  the  horizon).  The  first  fortnight  begins  with  the  end  of  amavasya  and  lasts 
up  to  the  end  of  piirnima ;  the  second  lasts  from  the  end  of  purnima  to  the  end  of  amavasya. 
The  words  "piarva"  (former  or  first)  and  "apara"  (latter  or  second)  are  sometimes  used  for 
sukla  and  krishna  respectively.  "Sudi"  (or  "sudi")  is  sometimes  used  for  sukla,  and  "vadi"  or 
"  badi "  for  krishna.     They  are  popular  corruptions  of  the  words  "  suddha  "  and  "  vadya  "  respectively. 

12.  Lunar  months.  The  next  natural  division  of  time  is  the  lunation,  or  lunar  month  of 
two  lunar  fortnights,  viz.,  the  period  of  time  between  two  successive  new  or  full  moons.  It  is 
called  a  chandra  niasa,  or  lunar  month,  and  is  the  time  of  the  moon's  synodic  revolution. - 

The  names  of  the  lunar  months  will  be  found  in  Table  II.,  Parts  i.  and  ii.,  and  Table  III., 
col.  2,  and  a  complete  discussion  on  the  luni-solar  month  system  of  the  Hindus  in  Arts.  41 
to  5  I .     (For  the  solar  months  sec  Arts.  22  to  2^.) 

13.  Amanta  and  piirnimanta  systems.  Since  either  the  amavasya  or  purnima,  the  new 
moon  or  the  full  moon,  may  be  taken  as  the  natural  end  of  a  lunar  month,  there  are  in  use 
in  India  two  schemes  of  such  beginning  and  ending.  By  one,  called  the  amanta  system,  a 
month  ends  with  the  moment  of  amavasya  or  new  moon ;  by  the  other  it  ends  with  the  purnima 
or  full  moon,  and  this  latter  is  called  a  purnimanta  month.  The  purnimanta  scheme  is  now  in 
use  in  Northern  India,  and  the  amanta  scheme  in  Southern  India.  There  is  epigraphical  evidence 
to    show    that  the  purnimanta  scheme  was  also  in  use  in  at  least  some  parts    of   Southern  India 

1  An  apt  title.  The  full  moon  stauiis  as  it  neve  with  the  waxiu?  half  on  oue  side  and  the  waning  half  on  the  other.  The  week 
is  an  arbitrary  division. 

-  The  "synodic  revolution"  of  the  moon  is  the  period  during  which  the  moon  completes  one  series  of  her  snccessive  phases, 
roughly  291/3  days.  The  period  of  her  exact  orbital  revolution  is  called  her  "sidereal  revolution".  The  term  "synodic"  was  given 
because  of  the  sun  and  moon  being  then  together  in  the  heavens  (<•/■  "  synod").  The  sidereal  revolution  of  the  moon  is  less  by 
about  two  days  than  her  synodic  revolution  in  consequence  of  the  forward  movement  of  the  earth  on  the  ecliptic.  This  will  be 
best  seen  by  the  accompanying  figure,  where  ST  is  a  fixed  star,  S  the  sun,  E  the  earth,  C  the  ecliptic,  M  M'  the  moon.  (A)  the  po-

revolution  is  M  to  Ml  plus  Ml  to  N.    [R.  S.]

THE  HINDU  CALENDAR.  S 

up  to  about  the  beginning  of  the  9'''  century  A.D.  '  The  Marvadis  of  Northern  India  who, 
originally  from  Marwar,  have  come  to  or  have  settled  in  Southern  India  still  use  their  purniminta 
arrangement  of  months  and  fortnights;  and  on  the  other  hand  the  Dakhanis  in  Northern  India  use 
the  scheme  of  amanta  fortnights  and  months  common  in  their  own  country. 

14.  Lnni-solar  motith  7iames.  The  general  rule  of  naming  the  lunar  months  so  as  to 
correspond  with  the  solar  year  is  that  the  amanta  month  in  which  the  Mesha  saiikranti 
or  entrance  of  the  sun  into  the  sign  of  the  zodiac  Mesha,  or  Aries,  occurs  in  each  year,  is  to  be 
called  Chaitra,  and  so  on  in  succession.  For  the  list  and  succession  see  the  Tables.  (See  Arts,  ^i — ^j^ 

15.  The  solar  year — tropical,  sidereal,  and  anomalistic.  Next  we  come  to  the  solar  year,  or  pe- 
riod of  the  earth's  orbital  revolution,  i.e.,  the  time  during  which  the  annual  seasons  complete  their 
course.  In  Indian  astronomy  this  is  generally  called  a  varsha,  lit.  "  shower  of  rain",  or  "  measured  by  a 
rainy  season  ". 

The  period  during  which  the  earth  makes  one  revolution  round  the  sun  with  reference  to 
the  fixed  stars, "  is  called  a  sidereal  year. 

The  period  during  which  the  earth  in  its  revolution  round  the  sun  passes  from  one  equi- 
nox or  tropic  to  the  same  again  is  called  a  tropical  year.  It  marks  the  return  of  the  same 
season  to  any  given  part  of  the  earth's  surface.  It  is  shorter  than  a  sidereal  year  because  the 
equinoxes  have  a  retrograde  motion  among  the  stars,  which  motion  is  called  the  precession  of 
the  equinoxes.  Its  present  annual  rate  is  about  5o".264.^ 

Again,  the  line  of  apsides  has  an  eastward  motion  of  about  1 1".5  in  a  year;  and  the  period  during 
which  the  earth  in  its  revolution  round  the  sun  comes  from  one  end  of  the  apsides  to  the  same  again, 
/'.  c.,    from    aphelion  to    aphelion,  or  from  perihelion  to  perihelion,  is  called  an  anomalistic  year.  * 

The  length  of  the  year  varies  owing  to  various  causes,  one  of  which  is  the  obliquity  of 
the  ecliptic,  °  or  the  slightly  varying  relative  position  of  the  planes  of  the  ecliptic  and  the  equator. 
Leverrier  gives  the  obliquity  in  A.D.   1700  as  23°  28'  43".22,  in  A.D.   i8ooas23°27'  55".63,and 

1     See  Fleet's  Corpus  Inscrip.  Indic,  vol    HI.,  Introduction,  p.  79  note;  Ind.  Ant.,    XVII.,  p.  141  /. 
i     Compare  the  note  oa  p.  4  on  the  moon's  motion.  [R.  S] 

3  This  rate  of  annual  precessioQ  is  that  fixed  by  modern  European  Astronomy,  but  since  the  exact  occurrence  of  the  equinoxes  can 
never  become  a  matter  for  obser»ation,  we  have,  in  dealing  with  Hindu  Astronomy,  to  be  guided  by  Hindu  calculations  alone.  It  must 
therefore  be  borne  in  mind  that  almost  all  practical  Hindu  works  (Karatias)  fix  the  annual  precession  at  one  minute,  or  -Lth  of  a 
degree,  while  the  SHrya-Siddhdnta  fixes  it  as  54"  or  i  degrees,     (see  Art.  160a.  given  in  the  Addenda  sheet.) 

4  The  anomaly  of  a  planet  is  its  angular  distance  from  its  perihelion,  or  an  angle  contained  between  a  line  drawn  from  the 
sun  to  the  planet,  called  the  radius  vector,  and  a  line  drawn  from  the  sun  to  the  perihelion  point  of  its  orbit.  In  the  case  in  point, 
the  earth,  after  completing  its  sidereal  revolulion,  has  not  arrived  quite  at  its  perihelion  because  the  apsidal  point  has  shifted  slightly 
eastwards.  Hence  the  year  occupied  in  travelling  from  the  old  perihelion  to  the  new  perihelion  is  called  the  anomalistic  year. 
A  planet's  true  anomaly  is  the  actual  angle  as  above  whatever  may  be  the  variations  in  the  planet's  velocity  at  different  periods  of 
its  orbit.  Its  mean  anomalij  is  the  angle  which  would  be  obtained  were  its  motion  between  perihelion  and  aphelion  uniform  in  time,

between  the  true  and  mean  anomalies  is  called  the  equation  of  the  centre.     True  ano/n.-^mean  anom.  ■\- equation  of  tlie  centre. 

The  equation  of  the  centre  is  zero  at  perihelion  and  aphelion,  and  a  maximum  midway  between  them.  In  the  case  of  the 
sun  its  greatest  value  is  nearly  1°.55'  for  the  present,  the  sun  getting  alternately  that  amount  ahead  of,  and  behind,  the  position 
it  would  occupy  if  its  motion  were  uniform.     (C.  A.   Young,  General  Astronomy.     Edit,  of  1889,  p.  125.)

between  the  ecliptic  and  equator,  i.e.,  the  obliquity  of  the  ecliptic.  This  obliquity  is  at  present  about  24' less  than  it  was  2000  years  ago, 
and  it  is  still  decreasing  about  half  a  second  a  year.  It  is  computed  that  this  diminution  will  continue  for  about  15,000  years,  reducing 
the  obliquity  to  221/4°,  when  it  will  begin  to  increase.  The  whole  change,  according  to  Lagrange,  can  never  exceed  about  1"  2' on

16.  Kalpa.  Mahdyiiga.  Yiiga.  Julian  Period.  A  kalpa  is  the  greatest  Indian  division  of 
time.  It  consists  of  looo  maliayugas.  A  niahayuga  is  composed  of  four  j'/c^a.r  of  different  lengths, 
named  Krita,  Treta,  Dvapara,  and  Kali.  The  Kali-yuga  consists  of  43 2,000  solar  years.  The  Dva- 
para  yuga  is  double  the  length  of  the  Kali.  The  Treta-yuga  is  triple,  and  the  Krita-yuga  quadruple  of 
the  Kali.  A  mahayuga  therefore  contains  ten  times  the  years  of  a  Kali-yuga,  viz.,  4,320,000. 
According  to  Indian  tradition  a  kalpa  is  one  day  of  Brahman,  the  god  of  creation.  The  Kali- 
yuga  is  current  at  present;  and  from  the  beginning  of  the  present  kalpa  up  to  the  beginning 
of  the  present  Kali-yuga  4567  times  the  years  of  a  Kali-yuga  have  passed.  The  present  Kali- 
yuga  commenced,  according  to  the  Siirya  Siddhanta,  an  authoritative  Sanskrit  work  on  Hindu 
astronomy,  at  midnight  on  a  Thursday  corresponding  to  17th — i8th  F"ebruary,  3102  B.C.,  old 
style;  by  others  it  is  calculated  to  have  commenced  on  the  following  sunrise,  viz.,  Friday,  18th 
February.  According  to  the  Siirya  and  some  other  SiddhUntas  both  the  sun  and  moon  were,  with 
reference  to  their  mean  longitude,  precisely  on  the  beginning  point  of  the  zodiacal  sign  Aries,  the 
Hindu  sign  Mesha,  when  the  Kali-yuga  began.  * 

European  chronologists  often  use  for  purposes  of  comparison  the  'Julian  Period'  of  7980 
years,  beginning  Tuesday  1st  January,  4713  B- C.  The  i8th  February,  3102  B.C.,  coincided 
with  the  588,466th  day  of  the  Julian  Period.

THE  HINDU  CALENDAR.  7 

It  will  be  seen  that  the  duration  of  the  year  in  all  the  above  works  except  the  first  three 
approximates  closely  to  the  anomalistic  year;  and  is  a  little  greater  than  that  of  the  sidereal  year. 
In  some  of  these  works  theoretically  the  year  is  sidereal;  in  the  case  of  some  of  the  others  it  cannot 
be  said  definitely  what  year  is  meant ;  while  in  none  is  it  to  be  found  how  the  calculations  were 
made.    It    may,  however,  be  stated  roughly  that  the  Hindu  year  is  sidereal  for  the  last  2000  years. 

18.  The  year  as  given  in  each  of  the  above  works  must  have  been  in  use  somewhere 
or  another  in  India  at  some  period;  but  at  present,  so  far  as  our  information  goes,  the  year 
of  only  three  works  is  in  use,  viz.,  that  of  the  present  Siirya  Siddha>ita,t\\G  first  Arya  Siddhanta. 
and  the  Rajamfigahka. 

The  Siddhantas  ami  other  astronomical  luor/cs. 

19.  It  will  not  be  out  of  place  here  to  devote  .some  consideration  to  these  various  astronomical 
works;  indeed  it  is  almost  necessary  to  do  so  for  a  thorough  comprehension  of  the  subject. 

Many  other  Siddhantas  and  Karanas  are  extant  besides  those  mentioned  in  the  above  list.  We 
know  of  at  least  thirty  such  works,  and  some  of  them  are  actually  used  at  the  present  day  in  making 
calculations  for  preparing  almanacks.  '  Many  other  similar  works  must,  it  is  safe  to  suppose, 
have  fallen  into  oblivion,    and  that   this  is  so  is  proved  by  allusions  found  in  the  existing  books. 

Some  of  these  works  merely  follow  others,  but  some  contain  original  matter.  The  Karanas 
give  the  length  of  the  year,  and  the  motions  and  places  at  a  given  time  of  the  sun,  moon,  and 
planets,  and  their  apogees  and  nodes,  according  to  the  standard  Siddhanta.  They  often  add 
corrections  of  their  own,  necessitated  by  actual  observation,  in  order  to  make  the  calculations 
agree.  Such  a  correction  is  termed  a  bija.  Generally,  however,  the  length  of  the  year  is  not 
altered,  but  the  motions  and  places  are  corrected  to  meet  requirements 

As  before  stated,  each  of  these  numerous  works,  and  consequently  the  year-duration 
and  other  elements  contained  in  them,  must  have  been  in  use  somewhere  or  another  and  at  some 
period  or  another  in  India.  At  the  present  time,  however,  there  are  only  three  schools  of 
astronomers  known;  one  is  called  the  Sanra-paksha,  consisting  of  followers  of  the  present  Siirya 
Siddhanta:  another  is  called  the  Arya-paksha,  and  follows  the  first  Arya  Siddlianta:  and  the 
third  is  called  the  Brahnia-pa/csha,  following  the  Rajainrigaii/ca,  a  work  based  on  Brahma- 
gupta's  Brahma  Siddhanta,  with  a  certain  bija.  The  distinctive  feature  of  each  of  these  schools 
is  that  the  length  of  the  year  accepted  in  all  the  works  of  that  school  is  the  same,  though  with 
respect  to  other  elements  they  may  possibly  disagree  between  themselves.  The  name  Rajamri- 
gahka  is  not  now  generally  known,  the  work  being  superseded  by  others;  but  the  year  adopted 
by  the  present  Brahma-school  is  first  found,  so  far  as  our  information  goes,  in  the  Rajamrigaiika, 
and  the  three  schools  exist  from  at  least  A.  D.    1042,  the  date  of  that  work. 

20.  It  is  most  important  to  know  what  Siddhantas  or  Karanas  were,  or  are  now,  regarded 
as  standard  authorities,  or  were,  or  are,  actually  used  for  the  calculations  of  panchai'igs  (almanacks) 
during  particular  periods  or  in  particular  tracts  of  country.  -  for  unless  this  is  borne  in  mind 
we  shall  often  go  wrong  when  we  attempt  to  convert  Indian  into  European  dates.  The 
sketch    which    follows    must    not,    however,    be    considered    as    exhaustive.     The  original  Siirya- 

1  KaraiMs  and  other  practical  works,  containing  tables  based  on  one  or  otlicr  of  the  Siddlidntas,  are  used  for  these 
calculations.     [S.  B.  D.] 

2  The  positions  and  motions  of  the  sun  and  moon  and  their  apogees  must  necessarily  be  fixed  and  known  for  the  con-ect  calcu- 
lation of  a  tithi,  nakslialra,  yoga  or  karaua.  The  length  of  the  year  is  also  an  important  clement,  and  in  the  samvatsara  is  governed 
by  the  movement  of  the  planet  Jupiter.  In  the  present  work  we  are  conrerncd  chiefly  with  these  six  elements,  viz.,  the  sun, 
moon,  their  apogees,  the  length  of  the  year,  and  Jupiter.  The  sketch  in  the  text  is  given  chiefly  keeping  in  view  these  elcmeuts. 
When  one  authority  differs  from  another  in  any  of  the  first  five  of  llicsc  six  elements  the  tithi  as  calculated  by  one  will  differ  from 
that  derived  from  anotlier.  [S.   B.   D.] 


8  THE  INDIAN  CALENDAR. 

Siddlinnta  was  a  standard  work  in  early  times,  but  it  was  .superseded  by  the  present 
Surya-Siddliania  at  some  period  not  yet  known,  probably  not  later  than  A.D.  looo.  The 
first  Arya-Siddhanta.  which  was  composed  at  Kusumapura  (supposed  to  be  Patna  in  Bengal), 
came  into  use  from  A.D.  499. '  Varahamihira  in  his  Pahchasiddliantika  (A.D.  505)  introduced 
a  bija  to  Jupiter's  motion  as  given  in  the  original  Surya-Sidd/tanta,  but  did  not  take  it  into 
account  in  his  rule  [see  Art.  62  hcloiv)  for  calculating  a  samvatsara.  Brahmagupta  composed 
his  Bralima-Siddliaiila  in  A.  D.  628.  He  was  a  native  of  Bhillamala  (the  present  Bhinmal),  40 
miles  to  tlie  north-west  of  the  Abu  mountains.  Lalla,  in  his  work  named  Dhi-vriddhida,  intro- 
duced a  hija  to  three  of  the  elements  of  the  first  Arya-Siddlianta,  namely,  the  moon,  her 
apogee,  and  Jupiter,  i.e.,  three  out  of  the  six  elements  with  which  we  are  concerned.  Lalla's 
place  and  date  are  not  known,  but  there  is  reason  to  believe  that  he  flourished  about  A.D.  638. 
The  date  and  place  of  the  second  Arya-Siddhanta  are  also  not  known,  but  the  date  would 
appear  to  have  been  about  A.D.  950.  It  is  alluded  to  by  Bhaskaracharya  (A.D.  11 50),  but  does 
not  seem  to  have  been  anywhere  in  use  for  a  long  time.  The  Rajamrigahka  (A.D.  1042) 
follows  the  Brahma-Siddhattta,  ^  but  gives  a  correction  to  almost  all  its  mean  motions  and  places, 
and  even  to  the  length  of  the  year.  The  three  schools — Saura,  Arya  and  Brahma — seem  to  have 
been  established  from  this  date  if  not  earlier,  and  the  Brahma-Siddhanta  in  its  orginal  form 
must  have  then  dropped  out  of  use.  The  Karaiia-prakasa,  a  work  based  on  the  first  Arya- 
Siddhanta  as  corrected  by  Lalla"s  bija,  was  composed  in  A.D.  1092,  and  is  considered  an  authority 
even  to  the  present  day  among  many  Vaishnavas  of  the  central  parts  of  Southern  India,  who 
are  followers  of  the  Arya-Siddhanta.  Bhaskaracharya's  works,  the  .S'/rtV/Z^rfw/rt  iV/-cw<7«/(A.D.  1 150) 
and  the  Karana-Kutiihala  {A.Y>.  1 183)  are  the  same  as  the  Rajamrigahka  in  the  matter  of  the 
calculation  of  a  paiichahg.  The  Vakkya-Karana,  a  work  of  the  Arya  school,  seems  to 
have  been  accepted  as  the  guide  for  the  preparation  of  solar  panchangs  in  the  Tamil  and 
Malayalam  countries  of  Southern  India  from  very  ancient  times,  and  even  to  the  present  day 
either  that  or  some  similar  work  of  the  Arya  school  is  so  used.  A  Karana  named  iSZ/fbr'^?// was  com- 
posed in  A.D.  1099,  its  birthplace  according  to  a  commentator  being  Jagannatha  (or  Puri)  on  the 
east  coast.  The  mean  places  and  motions  given  in  it  are  from  the  original  Siirya-Siddhanta  as 
corrected  by  Varahamihira's  bija,  '  and  it  was  an  authority  for  a  time  in  some  parts  of  Northern 
India.  Vavilala  Kochchanna,  who  resided  somewhere  in  Telingana,  composed  a  Karana  in  1298  A.D. 
He  was  a  strict  follower  of  the  present  Sitrya-Siddhanta,  and  since  his  day  the  latter  Sidd- 
hanta  has  governed  the  preparation  of  all  Telugu  luni-solar  calendars.  The  Makaranda,  another 
Karana,  was  composed  at  Benares  in  A.D.  1478,  its  author  following  the  present  5/?rjv?-5;V/rt'//rt«/rt, 
but  introducing  a  bija.  The  work  is  extensively  used  in  Northern  India  in  the  present  day  for  panchaiiga 
calculations.  Bengalis  of  the  present  day  are  followers  of  the  Saura  school,  while  in  the  western  parts  of 
Northern  India  and  in  some  parts  of  Gujarat  the  Brahma  school  is  followed.  T\\c  Graha-laghava, 
a  Karana  of  the  Saura  school,  was  composed  by  Ganesa  Daivjiia  of  Nandigrama  (Nandgam), 
a  village  to  the  South  of  Bombay,  in  A.D.  1520.  The  same  author  also  produced  the  Brihat 
and  Laghntitliichintanianis  in  A.D.  1525,  which  may  be  considered  as  appendices  to  the 
Graha-laghava.     Gane.sa    adopted  the  present  Sitrya  Siddhanta  determinations  for  the  length  of 

1  It  is  not  to  be  understood  that  as  soon  as  a  standard  work  comes  into  use  \\»  predecessors  go  out  of  use  from  all  parts  of 
the  country.  There  is  direct  evidence  to  show  that  the  origiua)  Silri/a-Siddli^nta  was  in  use  till  A.D.  665,  the  date  of  the  A'^om^o- 
thMi/a  of  Brahmagupta,  though  cvidenll_?  not  iu  all  parts  of  the  country.     [S.  B.  D.] 

2  Whenever  we  allude  simply  to  the  'Bralmia  Sidilli/inta"  by  name,  we  mean  Ihc  Bralitxa-SiddhdHla  of  Brahmagupta. 

'  Out  of  the  six  elements  alluded  lo  in  niitc  1  ou  the  last  ])age,  only  Jupiter  has  this  bija.  The  present  Stlr^a-Siddhdnta 
had  undoubtedly  come  into  use  before  the  date  of  the  B/umati.     [S.  B.  D.] 


THE  HINDU  CALENDAR.  9 

the  year  and  the  motions  and  places  of  the  sun  and  moon  and  their  apogees,  with  a  small 
correction  for  the  moon's  place  and  the  sun's  apogee;  but  he  adopted  from  the  Arya  Siddhanta 
as  corrected  by  Lalla  the  figures  relating  to  the  motion  and  position  of  Jupiter. 

The  Graha-laghava  and  the  Laghiitithichintaniani  were  used,  and  are  so  at  the  present 
day,  in  preparing  panchangs  wherever  the  Mahrathi  language  was  or  is  spoken,  as  well  as  in 
some  parts  of  Gujarat,  in  the  Kanarese  Districts  of  the  Bombay  and  Madras  Presidencies,  and 
in  parts  of  Haidarabad,  Maisur,  the  Berars,  and  the  Central  Provinces.  Mahratha  residents  in 
Northern  India  and  even  at  Benares  follow  these  works. 

21.  It  may  be  stated  briefly  that  in  the  present  day  the  first  Arya-Siddhanta  is  the 
authority  in  the  Tamil  and  Malayalani  countries  of  Southern  India;  '  the  Brahma-paksha 
obtains  in  parts  of  Gujarat  and  in  Rajputana  and  other  western  parts  of  Northern  India;  while 
in  almost  all  other  parts  of  India  the  present  Sitrya-Siddlianta  is  the  standard  authority.  Thus 
it  appears  that  the  present  Siirya-Siddknnta  has  been  the  prevailing  authority  in  India  for  many 
centuries  past  down  to  the  present  day,  and  since  this  is  so,  we  have  chiefly  followed  it  in  this  work.  - 

The  bija  as  given  in  the  Makaranda  (A.  D.  1478)  to  be  applied  to  the  elements  of  the 
Surya-Siddkanta  is  generally  taken  into  account  by  the  later  followers  of  the  Siiry a- Siddhanta, 
but  is  not  met  with  in  any  earlier  work  so  far  as  our  information  goes.  We  have,  therefore, 
introduced  it  into  our  tables  after  A.D.  1500  for  all  calculations  which  admit  of  it.  The  bija  of  the 
Makaranda  only  applies  to  the  moon's  apogee  and  Jupiter,  leaving  the  other  four  elements  unaffected.

22.  The  Indian  Zodiac.  The  Indian  Zodiac  is  divided,  as  in  Europe,  into  1 2  parts,  each  of 
which  is  called  arrtw  or  "sign".  Each  sign  contains  30  degrees,  a  degree  being  called  an  ^wirt.  Each 
arhsa  is  divided  into  60  kalas  (minutes),  and  each  kala  into  60  vikalas  (seconds).  This  sexagesimal 
division  of  circle  measurement  is,  it  will  be  observed,  precisely  similar  to  that  in  use  in  Europe.  ■'' 

23.  TJie  Saiikrajiti.  The  point  of  time  when  the  sun  leaves  one  zodiacal  sign  and  enters  another 
is  called  a  sahkranti.  The  period  between  one  saiikranti  and  another,  or  the  time  required  for 
the  sun  to  pass  completely  through  one  sign  of  the  zodiac,  is  called  a  saura  inasa,  or  solar 
month.  Twelve  solar  months  make  one  solar  year.  The  names  of  the  solar  months  will  be 
found  in  Table  II.,  Part  ii.,  and  Table  III.,  col.  5.  A  sankranti  on  which  a  solar  month  commences 
takes  its  name  from  the  sign-name  of  that  month.  The  Mesha  sankranti  marks  the  vernal  equinox, 
the  moment  of  the  sun's  passing  the  first  point  of  Aries.  The  Karka  sankranti,  three  solar 
months  later,  is  also  called  the  dakshinayana  ("southward-going")  sankranti:  it  is  the  point  of 
the  summer  solstice,  and  marks  the  moment  when  the  sun  turns  southward.  The  Tula  sankranti, 
three  solar  months  later,  marks  the  autumnal  equinox,  or  the  moment  of  the  sun's  passing  the 
first  point  of  Libra.  The  Makara  sahkranti,  three  solar  months  later  still,  is  also  called  the 
uttarayana  saiikranti  ("northward-going").  It  is  the  other  solstitial  point,  the  point  or  moment 
when  the  sun  turns  northward.  When  we  speak  of  "  sahkrantis  "  in  this  volume  we  refer  always  to  the 
nirayana  sahkrantis,  i.e.,  the  moments  of  the  sun's  entering  the  zodiacal  signs,  as  calculated 
in  sidereal  longitude — longitude  measured  from  the  fixed  point  in  Aries — taking  no  account  of  the 
annual  precession  of  the  equino.xes — {nirayana  —  "without  movement",  excluding  the  precession  of  the 
solstitial — ay  ana — points).  But  there  is  also  in  Hindu  chronology  the  say  ana  saiikranti  [sa-ayana  —  "  with 

1  It  is  probable  that  the  first  .iri/a-Siddlidnta  was  the  standard  authority  for  South  Indian  solar  reckoning  from  the  earliest 
times.  In  Bengal  the  Siiri/a-Siddhdnia  is  the  authority  since  about  A.D.  1100,  but  in  earlier  times  the  first  Arya-Siddhdnta  was 
apparently  the  standard.  [S.  B.  D.] 

-  When  we  allude  simply  to  the  Surya  or  Ari/a  Siddhdnla,  it  must  be  borne  in  mind  that  we  mean  the  Present  Stlrya

THE  INDIAN  CALENDAR. 


movement",  including  the  movement  of  the  ayana  points),  i.e.,  a  sankranti  calculated  according  to 
tropical  longitude — ^longitude  measured  from  the  vernal  equinox,  the  precession  being  taken  into 
account.  According  to  the  present  Siirya-Siddhanta  the  sidereal  coincided  with  the  tropical  signs 
inK.  Y.  3600  expired,  Saka  421  expired,  and  the  annual  precession  is  54".  By  almost  all  other  authori- 
ties the  coincidence  took  place  in  K.  Y.  3623  expired,  Saka  444  expired,  and  the  annual  precession  is 
(i')  one  minute.  (The  Siddhanta  J)V/-<7W<?«/,  however,  fixes  this  coincidence  as  in  K.  Y.  362S).  Taking 
either  year  as  a  base,  the  difference  in  years  between  it  and  the  given  year,  multiplied  by  the  total 
amount  of  annual  precession,  will  shew  the  longitudinal  distance  by  [which,  in  the  given  year, 
the  first  point  of  the  tropical  (sayand)  sign  precedes  the  first  point  of  the  sidereal  («/>«j'a««)  sign. 
Professor  Jacobi  {Epig.  Ind.,  Vol.  1,  p.  422,  Art.  j<?)  points  out  that  a  calculation  should  be  made 
"  whenever  a  date  coupled  with  .a  sankranti  does  not  come  out  correct  in  all  particulars.  For  it  is 
possible  that  a  sayana  sankranti  may  be  intended,  since  these  sankrantis  too  are  suspicious  moments." 
We  have,  however,  reason  to  believe  that  sayana  sankrantis  have  not  been  in  practical  use  for  the  last 
1600  years  or  more.     Dates  may  be  tested  according  to  the  rule  given  in  Art.    i6o(rt). 

It  will  be  seen  from  cols.  8  to  13  of  Table  II.,  Part  ii.,  that  there  are  two  distinct  sets  of 
names  given  to  the  solar  months.  One  set  is  the  set  of  zodiac-month-names  ("  Mesha"  etc.),  the 
other  has  the  names  of  the  lunar  months.  The  zodiacsign-names  of  months  evidently  belong  to 
a  later  date  than  the  others,  since  it  is  known  that  the  names  of  the  zodiacal  signs  themselves 
came  into  use  in  India  later  than  the  lunar  names,  "  Chaitra"  and  the  rest.  ^  Before  sign-names 
came  into  use  the  solar  months  must  have  been  named  after  the  names  of  the  lunar  months, 
and    we    find    that  they  are  so  named  in  Bengal  and  in  the  Tamil  country  at  the  present  day.  - 

24.  Length  of  months.  It  has  been  already  pointed  out  that,  owing  to  the  fact  that  the 
apparent  motion  of  the  sun  and  moon  is  not  always  the  same,  the  lengths  of  the  lunar  and  solar  months 
vary.     We  give  here  the  lengths  of  the  solar  months  according  to  the  Siirya  and  Arya-Siddhantas.

1  My  present  opinion  is  that  the  zodiacal-tign-names,  Mesha,  etc.,  began  to  be  used  in  India  bctweea  700  B.  C.  and  300  B.  C, 
not  earlier  than  the  farmer  or  later  than  the  latter.     [S.  B.  D.]

THE  HINDU  CALENDAR.  " 

For  calculation  of  the  length  by  the  Surya-Siddliaiita  the  longitude  of  the  sun's  apogee  is  taken 

as  •]^''  i6',  which  was  its  value  in  A.  D.  1 1 37,  a  date  about  the  middle  of  our  Tables.  Even  if  its  value  at 

our    extreme  dates,  i.e.,  either  in  A.  D.  300  or  1900,  were  taken  the  lengtlis  would  be  altered  by 

only  one  pala  at  most.     By  the  Arya-Siddhanta  the  sun's  apogee  is  taken  as  constantly  at  78".' 

The  average  (mean)  length  in  days  of  solar  and  lunar  months,  and  of  a  lunar  year  is  as  follows : 

Surya-Siddhanta       Modern  science

25.  Adiiika  niasas.  Calendar  used.  A  period  of  twelve  lunar  months  falls  short  of  the 
solar  year  by  about  eleven  days,  and  the  Hindus,  though  they  use  lunar  months,  have  not  disre- 
garded this  fact  ;  but  in  order  to  bring  their  year  as  nearly  as  possible  into  accordance  with  the 
solar  year  and  the  cycle  of  the  seasons  they  add  a  lunar  month  to  the  lunar  year  at  certain 
intervals.  Such  a  month  is  called  an  adiiika  or  intercalated  month.  The  Indian  year  is  thus 
either  solar  or  luni-solar.  The  Muhammadan  year  of  the  Hijra  is  purely  lunar,  consisting  of  twelve 
lunar  months,  and  its  initial  date  therefore  recedes  about  eleven  days  in  each  year.  In 
luni-solar  calculations  the  periods  used  are  tithis  and  lunar  months,  with  intercalated  and  suppressed 
months  whenever  necessary.  In  solar  reckoning  solar  days  and  solar  months  are  alone  used. 
In  all  parts  of  India  luni-solar  reckoning  is  used  for  most  religious  purposes,  but  solar  reckoning 
is  used  where  it  is  prescribed  by  the  religious  authorities.  For  practical  civil  purposes  solar 
reckoning  is  used  in  Bengal  and  in  the  Tamil  and  Malayalam  countries  of  the  Madras  Presi- 
dency; in  all  other  parts  of  the  country  luni-solar  reckoning  is  adopted. 

26.  Tr?ic  and  mean  sankrantis.  Sodltya.  When  the  sun  enters  one  of  the  signs  of  the 
zodiac,  as  calculated  by  his  mean  motion,  such  an  entrance  is  called  a  mean  saiikranti ;  when 
he  enters  it  as  calculated  by  his  apparent  or  true  motion,  such  a  moment  is  his  apparent  or 
true  -    sankranti.     At    the    present    day    true    sankrantis    are    used    for    religious    as    well    as  for 

called  Vaisdkha  in  Bengal  and  Sitlirai  (ChailraJ  in  the  Tamil  country,  Vais^kha  being  the  second  month  in  the  south.  To  avoid  con- 
fusion, therefore,  we  use  only  the  sign-names  (Mesha,  t\e.)  in  framing  our  rules. 

1  The  lengths  of  months  by  the  .iri/a-Siddlidnta  here  given  are  somewhat  different  from  those  given  by  Warren.  But  Warren  seems  • 
to  have  taken  ihe  longitude  of  the  sun's  apogee  by  the  5«Vya-iVrfrf/i(2«te  in  calculating  the  duration  of  months  by  the  >i(rya-Sirfrf/j«'n^a,  which 
is  wrong.  He  seems  also  to  have  taken  into  account  the  chara.  *  (See  his  Kdia  Sahkalita,  p.  11,  art.  3,  p.  22,  explanation  of  Table 
III.,  line  4;  and  p.  3  of  the  Tables).  He  has  used  the  ayandmsa  (the  uniformly  increasing  arc  between  the  point  of  the  vernal 
equinox  each  year  and  the  fixed  point  in  Aries)  which  is  required  for  finding  the  chara  in  calculating  the  lengths  of  months.  The 
chara  is  uot  the  same  at  the  begiuning  of  any  given  solai'  mouth  for  all  places  or  for  all  years.  Ueuce  it  is  wrong  to  use  it  for 
general  rules  and  tables.  The  inaccuracy  of  Warren's  lengths  of  solar  months  according  to  the  S«r//a-SiV;?rf/;i/«/«  requires  no  elaborate 
proof,  for  they  are  practically  the  same  as  those  given  by  him  according  to  the  Ari/a-Siddhdnta,  and  that  this  cannot  be  the  ease 
is  self-evident  to  all  who  have  any  experience  of  the  two  Siddhdntas.     [S.  B.  D.] 

*  The  chara: — "The  time  of  rising  of  a  heavenly  body  is  assumed  to  take  place  six  hours  before  it  comes  to  the  meridian. 
Actually  this  is  not  the  case  for  any  locality  not  on  the  equator,  and  the  chara  is  the  correction  required  in  consequence,  i.e.,  the 
excess  or  defect  from  six  hours  of  the  time  between  rising  and  reaching  the  meridian  The  name  is  also  applied  to  the  celestial 
arc  described  in  this  time." 

■  The  Sanskrit  word  for  "mean"  is  ;«(K///ya»w,  and  that  for  'true'  or  'appareut'  \»  .■tpashta.'VhtviMii  '  madhiiama'  ani  '  spashta' 
arc  applied  to  many  varieties  of  time  and  space;  as,  for  instance,  ^a/i  (motion).  M()^«  (longtitude),  .fa/U-ru'«</,  »!«'««  (measure  or  reckon- 
ing) and  kdla  (time).  In  the  English  Nautical  Almanac  the  word  "apparent"  is  used  to  cover  almost  all  cases  where  the  Sanskrit 
word  spashta  would  be  applied,  the  word  'true'  being  sometimes,  but  rarely,  used.  "Apparent,"  therefore,  is  the  best  word  to  use  in  my 
opinion;  and  we  have  adopted  it  prominently,  in  spite  of  the  fact  that  previous  writers  on  Hindu  Astronomy  have  chiefly  used  the 
word  "true."  There  is  as  a  fact  a  little  diS'erence  in  the  meaning  of  the  phrases  "apparent  "  and  "true,"  but  it  is  almost  unknown 
to  Indian  Astronomy,  and  we  have  therefore  used  the  two  words  as  synonyms.     [S.  B.   D.] 


12  THE  INDIAN  CALENDAR. 

civil  purposes.  In  the  present  position  of  the  sun's  apogee,  the  mean  Mesha  sankranti  takes 
place  after  the  true  sankranti,  the  difference  being  two  days  and  some  ghatikas.  This  difference 
is  called  the  sodhya.  It  differs  with  different  Sidd/iantas,  and  is  not  always  the  same  even  by 
the  same  authority.  We  have  taken  it  as  2d.  logh.  14  p.  30  vipa.  by  the  Surya-Sidd/ianta, 
and  2d.  8  gh.  51  p.  15  vipa.  by  the  Arya-Siddhanta  The  corresponding  notion  in  modern 
European  Astronomy  is  the  equation  of  time.  The  sodhya  is  the  number  of  days  required  by 
the  sun  to  catch  up  the  equation  of  time  at  the  vernal  equinox. 

27.  It  must  be  remembered  that  whenever  we  use  the  word  "saiikranti"  alone,  (e.g.,  "the 
Mesha-sankranti ")  the  apparent  and  not  the  mean  nirayana  sankranti  is  meant. 

28.  The  hdginning  of  a  solar  month.  Astronomically  a  solar  month  may  begin,  that  is 
a  sankranti  may  occur,  at  any  moment  of  a  day  or  night;  but  for  practical  purposes  it  would 
be  inconvenient  to  begin  the  month  at  irregular  times  of  the  day.  Suppose,  for  example,  that 
a  Makara-saiikranti  occurred  6  hours  5  minutes  after  sunrise  on  a  certain  day,  and  that  two  written 
agreements  were  passed  between  two  parties,  one  at  5  hours  and  another  at  7  hours  after  sun- 
rise. If  the  month  Makara  were  considered  to  have  commenced  at  the  exact  moment  of  the 
Makara-saiikranti,  we  should  have  to  record  that  the  first  agreement  was  passed  on  the  last 
day  of  the  month  Dhanus,  and  the  second  on  the  first  day  of  Makara,  whereas  in  fact  both  were 
executed  on  the  same  civil  day.  To  avoid  such  confusion,  the  Hindus  always  treat  the  beginning  of  the 
solar    month    as  occurring,  civilly,  at  sunrise.     Hence  a  variation  in  practice. 

(1)  (a)  In  Bengal,  when  a  sankranti  takes  place  between  sunrise  and  midnight  of  a  civil  day 
the  solar  month  begins  on  the  following  day ;  and  when  it  occurs  after  midnight  the  month  begins 
on  the  next  following,  or  third,  day.  If,  for  example,  a  saiikranti  occurs  between  sunrise  and  midnight 
of  a  Friday,  the  month  begins  at  sunrise  on  the  next  day,  Saturday  ;  but  if  it  takes  place  after  mid- 
night of  Friday  ^  the  month  begins  at  sunrise  on  the  following  Sunday.  This  may  be  termed  the 
Bengal  Rule,  (b)  In  Orissa  the  solar  month  of  the  Amli  and  Vilayati  eras  begins  civilly  on  the  same 
day  as  the  sankranti,  whether  this  takes  place  before  midnight  or  not.  This  we  call  the  Orissa  Rule. 

(2)  In  Southern  India  there  are  two  rules,  (a)  One  is  that  when  a  saiikranti  takes  place 
after  sunrise  and  before  sunset  the  month  begins  on  the  same  day,  while  if  it  takes  place  after 
sunset  the  month  begins  on  the  following  day;  if,  for  example,  a  saiikranti  occurs  on  a  Friday 
between  sunrise  and  sunset  the  month  begins  on  the  same  day,  Friday,  but  if  it  takes  place 
at  any  moment  of  Friday  night  after  sunset  the  month  begins  on  Saturday."  (b)  By  another  rule, 
the  day  between  sunrise  and  sunset  being  divided  into  five  parts,  if  a  saiikranti  takes  place 
within  the  first  three  of  them  the  month  begins  on  the  same  day,  otherwise  it  begins  on  the 
following  day.  Suppose,  for  example,  that  a  saiikranti  occurred  on  a  Friday,  seven  hours  after  sun- 
ri.se,  and  that  the  length  of  that  day  was  12  hours  and  30  minutes;  then  its  fifth  part  was  2  hours 
30  minutes,  and  three  of  these  parts  are  equal  to  7  hours  30  minutes.  As  the  saiikranti  took  place 
within  the  first  three  parts,  the  month  began  on  the  same  day,  Friday ;  but  if  the  sankranti  had 
occurred  8  hours  after  sunrise  the  month  would  have  begun  on  Saturday.  The  latter  (b)  rule  is 
observed  in  the  North  and  South  Malayajam  country,  and  the  former  (a)  in  other  parts  of 
Southern  India  where  the  solar  reckoning  is  used,  viz.,  in  the  Tamil  and  Tinncvclly  countries.  ^ 
We  call  a.  the   Tamil  Rule:  b.  the  Malabar  Rule. 

'     Utmcmber  tliat  the  wctk-day  is  cuuiitcil  from  sunrise  to  sunrise. 

-     Urowii's   Ephemerin    follows    this  rule  throughout  in  lixing  the  Jntc  lorrcspondiiig  to  Ist  Mi>hn,  and  consequently  his  solar 
dates  are  often  wrong  b_v  one  day  for  those  tracts  where  the  'I  li  rule  is  in  use.

29.    Panchangs.  Before  proceeding  we  revert  to  the  five  principal  articles  of  the  paiichang. 

There  are  30  tithis  in  a  lunar  month,  i  5  to  each  fortnight.  The  latter  are  generally  denoted  by  the 
ordinary  numerals  in  Sanskrit,  and  these  are  used  for  the  fifteen  tithis  of  each  fortnight.  Some  tithis 
are,  however,  often  called  by  special  names.  In  pafichangs  the  tithis  are  generally  particularized 
by  their  appropriate  numerals,  but  sometimes  by  letters.     The  Sanskrit  names  are  here  given.  '

The  numeral  30  is  generally  applied  to  the  amavasya  (new  moon  day)  in  pafichangs,  even  in 
Northern  India  where  according  to  the  purnimanta  system  the  dark  fortnight  is  the  first  fortnight  of  the 
month  and  the  month  ends  with  the  moment  of  full  moon,  the  amavasya  being  really  the  i  5th  tithi. 

30.  That  our  readers  may  understand  clearly  how  a  Hindu  paiichang  is  prepared  and 
what  information  it  contains,  we  append  an  extract  from  an  actual  panchaiig  for  Saka  18 16, 
expired,  A.  D.   1894—95,  published  at  Poona  in  the  Bombay  Presidency.   ^ 

corroborated  by  infonnatiun  kindly  sent  to  me  from  Howrah  by  llr.  G.  A.  Grierson  through  Dr.  Fleet.  It  was  also  amply  corroborated 
by  a  set  of  Bengal  Chronological  Tables  for  A.D.  1882,  published  under  the  authority  of  the  Calcutta  High  Court,  a  copy  of  which 
was  sent  to  rac  by  Mr.  Scwell.  I  owe  the  Orissa  Rule  to  the  Chronological  Tables  published  by  Girishchandra  Tai'kalaukar,  who 
follows  the  Orissa  Court  Tables  with  regard  to  the  Amli  and  Vilayati  years  in  Orissa.  Dr.  J.  Burgess,  in  a  note  in  Mr.  Krishnasrumi 
Naidu's  "South  Indian  Chronological  Tables"  edited  by  Mr.  Sewell.  gives  the  i  (a)  Rule  as  in  use  in  the  North  Malayalam  country, 
but  I  do  not  know  what  his  autliority  is.  I  ascerta  ned  from  Tamil  and  Tinnevelly  panchangs  that  the  2  (a)  rule  is  in  use  there, 
and  the  fact  is  corroborated  by  WaiTen's  KMa  Sankalita ;  1  ascertained  also  from  some  South  Malaya]am  paiichangs  published  at  Cochin 
and  Trevandruni,  and  from  a  North  Malaydjam  paiichang  published  at  Calicut,  that  the  2  {b)  rule  is  followed  there  [S.   B.  D] 

Notwithstanding  all  this  I  have  no  certain  guarantee  that  these  arc  the  onli/  rules,  or  that  they  are  invariably  followed  in 
the  tracts  mentioned.  Thus  I  find  from  a  Tamil  solar  pafichSng  for  Saka  1815  current,  published  at  Madras,  and  from  a  Telu^u 
luni-solar  paiichung  for  Saka  1109  espireJ,  also  published  .it  Madras,  in  which  the  solar  months  also  are  given,  that  the  rule  observed 
is  that  "when  a  sankranti  occurs  bciween  sunrise  and  midnight  the  montli  begins  on  the  same  day,  otherwise  on  the  following  day", 
thus  differing  from  all  the  four  rules  given  above.  This  varying  fifth  rule  again  is  followed  for  all  solar  months  of  the  Vilavati  year 
as  given  in  the  above-mentioned  Bengal  Chronological  Tables  for  1882,  and  by  its  use  the  month  regularly  begins  one  day  i a  advance 
of  the  Bengali  month.  I  find  a  sixth  rule  in  some  Bombay  and  Benares  lunar  panchaiigs,  viz.,  that  at  whatever  time  the  sankrSnti 
may  occur,  the  month  begins  on  the  next  day;  but  (his  is  not  found  in  any  solar  panchang.  The  rules  may  be  furlhcr  classified 
as  (1.  a)  the  midnight  rule  (Bengal),  (1.  *)  any  time  rule  (Orissa),  (2.  n)  the  stinsft  rule  (Tamil),  (3.4)  the  afternoon  rule  {^iaX&hat). 
The  fifth  rule  is  a  variety  of  the  midnight  rule,  and  the  sixth  a  variety  of  the  any  time  rule.  I  cannot  say  for  how  many  years 
past  the  rules  now  in  use  in  the  several  provinces  have  been  in  force  and  effect. 

An  inscription  at  Kannanur,  a  village  5  miles  north  of  Srirarigam  near  Trichinojjoly  (see  'Epigraph.  Indic,  vol.  III.,  p.  10,  date  No.  V., 
note  3,  and  p.  ij,  is  dated  Tuesday  the  thirtceuth  tithi  of  the  bright  fortnight  of  Sravana  in  the  year  Prajapati,  which  corresponded  with 
the  24th  day  of  the  (solar)  month  Adi  (karka.)  From  other  sources  the  year  of  this  date  is  k-nown  to  be  A.D.  1271  ;  and  on 
carefully  calculating  I  find  that  the  day  corresponds  with  the  21st  July,  and  that  the  Karka  saiikrAnti  took  place,  by  the  Arga-Siddh£nta, 
on  the  27th  June,  Saturday,  shortly  before  midnight.  From  this  it  follows  that  the  month  Adi  began  civilly  on  the  28th  June,  and 
that    one    or  the  other  of  the  two  rules  at  present  in  use  in  Southern  India  was  in  use  in  Trichinopoly  in  A.D.  1271.     [S.  B.  D.] 

1  We  cannot  enumerate  the  vulgar  or  popular  names  which  obtain  in  all  parts  of  India,  and  it  is  not  necessary  that  we  should  do  so. 

2  This  is  an  ordinary  paiichang  in  daily  use.  It  was  prepared  by  myself  from  Ganesa  Daivjna's  Grahaldghava  and  Laghu- 
tithichintdmam.     [S.  B.  D.]

r6  THE  INDIAN  CALENDAR. 

The  above  extract  is  for  the  amanta  month  Bhadrapada  or  August  31st  to  September  29th, 
1894.  The  montli  is  divided  into  its  two  fortniglits.  The  uppermost  horizontal  column  shews  that  the 
first  tithi,  "pratipada",  was  current  at  sunrise  on  Friday,  and  that  it  ended  at  43  gh.  59  p.  after 
sunrise.  The  moon  was  12  degrees  to  the  east  of  the  sun  at  that  moment,  and  after  that  the 
second  tithi,  "dvitlya",  commenced.  The  nakshatra  Purva-Phalguni  ended  and  Uttara-Phalguni 
commenced  at  40  gh.  16  p.  after  sunrise.  The  yoga  Siddha  ended,  and  Sadhya  began,  at  31  gh.  22  p. 
after  sunrise;  and  the  karana  Kiriistughna  ended,  and  Bava  began,  at  16  gh.  30  p.  after  sunrise. 
The  moon  was  in  the  sign  Sirhha  up  to  15  gh.  after  sunrise  and  then  entered  the  sign  Kanya. 
The  length  of  the   day  was  30  gh.   59  pa.  (and  consequently  the  length  of  the  night  was  29  gh. 

1  pa.).  The  solar  day  was  the  i6th  of  Sirhha.  '  The  Muhammadan  day  was  the  29th  of  Safar, 
and  the  European  day  was  the  31st  of  August.  This  will  explain  the  bulk  of  the  table  and 
the  manner   of  using  it. 

Under  the  heading  "other  particulars"  certain  festival  days,  and  some  other  information 
useful  for  religious  and  other  purposes,  are  given.  To  the  right,  read  vertically,  are  given  the 
places  of  the  sun  and  the  principal  planets  at  sunrise  of  the  last  day  of  each  fortnight  in  signs 
degrees,  minutes,  and  seconds,  with  their  daily  motions  in  minutes  and  seconds.  Thus  the 
figures  under  "sun"  shew  that  the  sun  had,  up  to  the  moment  in  question,  travelled  through 
4  signs,  29  degrees,  27  minutes,  and  9  seconds;  i.e.,  had  completed  4  signs  and  stood  in  the  5th, 
Sirhha, — had  completed  29  degrees  and  stood  in  the  30th,  and  so  on ;  and  that  the  rate  of  his  daily 
motion  for  that  moment  was  58  minutes  and  30  seconds.  Below  are  shown  the  same  in  signs 
in  the  horoscope.  The  ahargana,  here  34 — 227,  means  that  since  the  epoch  of  the  Cnz/i'tf/rt^/iiar'fl,^ 
i.e.,  sunrise  on  amanta  Phalguna  krishna  30th  of  Saka  1441  expired,  or  Monday  19th  March,  A.D. 
1520,  34  cycles  of  4016  days  each,  and  227  days,  had  elapsed  at  sunrise  on  Saturday  the  15th 
of  the  bright  half  of  Bhadrapada.  The  horoscope  entries  are  almost  always  given  in  panchai'igs 
as  they  are  considered  excessively  important  by  the  Hindus. 

3 1 .  Titliis  and  solar  days.  Solar  or  civil  days  are  always  named  after  the  week-days,  and 
where  solar  reckoning  is  in  use  are  also  counted  by  numbers,  e.g.,  the  1st,  2nd,  etc.,  of  a  named 
solar  month.  But  where  solar  reckoning  does  not  prevail  they  bear  the  names  and  numerals  of 
the  corresponding  tithis.  The  tithis,  however,  beginning  as  they  do  at  any  hour  of  the  day,  do 
not  exactly  coincide  with  solar  days,  and  this  gives  rise  to  some  little  difficulty.  The  general 
rule  for  civil  purposes,  as  well  as  for  some  ordinary  religious  purposes  for  which  no  particular 
time  of  day  happens  to  be  prescribed,  is  that  the  tithi  current  at  sunrise  of  the  solar  day 
gives  its  name  and  numeral  to  that  day,  and  is  coupled  with  its  week-day.  Thus  Bhadrapada 
sukla  chaturdasl  Sukravara  (Friday  the  14th  of  the  first  or  bright  fortnight  of  Bhadrapada)  is 
that  civil  day  at  whose  sunrise  the  tithi  called  the  14th  sukla  is  current,  and  its  week-day  is 
F"riday.  Suppose  a  written  agreement  to  have  been  executed  between  two  parties,  or  an  ordinary 
religious  act  to  have  been  performed,  at  noon  on  that  Friday  at  whose  sunrise  Bhadrapada  Sukla  chatur- 
dasi   of   Saka    18 16    expired    was    current,    and    which    ended    (sec  the  table)  5  gh.  iSp.,  (about 

2  h.  7  m.)  after  sunrise,  or  at  about  8.7  a.m.  Then  these  two  acts  were  actually  done  after  the 
chaturdasi  had  ended  and  the  purnima  was  current,  but  they  would  be  generally  noted  as  having  been 
done    on    Friday    sukla    chaturdasi.     It  is,  however,  permissible,  though  such  instances  would  be

rare,  to  state  the  date  of  these  actions  as  "Friday  purnima;"  and  sometimes  for  religious  pur- 
poses the  date  would  be  expressed  as  "chaturdasi  yukta  purnima"  (the  14th  joined  with  the  pur- 
nima). Where,  however,  successive  regular  dating  is  kept  up,  as,  for  instance,  in  daily  transactions 
and  accounts,  a  civil  day  can  only  bear  the  name  of  the  tithi  current  at  its  sunrise. 

Some  religious  ceremonies  are  ordered  to  be  performed  on  stated  tithis  and  at  fixed  times  of 
the  day.  For  example,  the  worship  of  the  god  Ganesa  is  directed  to  take  place  on  the  Bhadra- 
pada  sukla  chaturthi  during  the  third  part  (madhyakna)  of  the  five  parts  of  the  day.  A  sraddha, 
a  ceremony  in  honour  of  the  pitris  (manes),  must  be  performed  during  the  4th  (aparalina)  of 
these  five  periods.  Take  the  case  of  a  Brahmana,  whose  father  is  dead,  and  who  has  to  perform 
a  sraddha  on  every  amavasya.  In  the  month  covered  by  our  extract  above  the  amavasya  is  current 
at  sunrise  on  Saturday.  It  expired  at  1 1  gh.  40  p.  after  sunrise  on  Saturday,  or  at  about  1O.40  a.m. 
Now  the  aparahna  period  of  that  Saturday  began,  of  course,  later  than  that  hour,  and  so  the 
amavasya  of  this  Bhadrapada  was  current  during  the  aparahna,  not  of  Saturday,  but  of  the  previous  day, 
Friday.  The  sraddha  ordered  to  be  performed  on  the  amavasya  must  be  performed,  not  on 
Saturday,  but  on  Friday  in  this  case.  Again,  suppose  a  member  of  the  family  to  have  died  on  this 
same  Friday  before  the  end  of  the  tithi  krishna  chaturdasi,  and  another  on  the  same  day  but 
after  the  end  of  the  tithi.  A  sraddha  must  be  performed  in  the  family  every  year,  according 
to  invariable  Hindu  custom,  on  the  tithi  on  which  each  person  died.  Therefore  in  the  present 
instance  the  sraddha  of  the  first  man  must  be  performed  every  year  on  the  day  on  which 
Bhadrapada  krishna  chaturdasi  is  current,  during  the  aparahna;  while  that  of  the  second  must 
take  place  on  the  day  on  which  the  amavasya  of  that  month  is  current  during  the  aparahna, 
and  this  may  be  separated  by  a  whole  day  from  the  first.  Lengthy  treatises  have  been  written 
on  this  subject,  laying  down  what  should  be  done  under  all  such  circumstances.  > 

At  the  time  of  the  performance  of  religious  ceremonies  the  current  tithi,  vara,  and  all  other 
particulars  have  to  be  pronounced;  and  consequently  the  tithi,  nakshatra,  etc.,  so  declared  may 
difiler  from  the  tithi,  etc.,  current  at  sunrise.  There  is  a  vrata  (observance,  vow)  called  Sahkashta- 
nasana-chatiirthi,  by  which  a  man  binds  himself  to  observe  a  fast  on  every  krishna  chaturthi  up 
to  moonrise,  which  takes  place  about  9  p.m.  on  that  tithi,  but  is  allowed  to  break  the  fast  afterwards. 
And  this  has  of  course  to  be  done  on  the  day  on  which  the  chaturthi  is  current  at  moonrise.  From 
the  above  extract  the  evening  of  the  1 8th  September,  Tuesday,  is  the  day  of  this  chaturthi,  for 
though  the  3rd  tithi,  tritiya,  of  the  krishna  paksha  was  current  at  sunrise  on  Tuesday  it 
expired  at  9  gh.  35  pa.  after  sunrise,  or  about  9.50  a.m.  If  we  suppose  that  this  man  made  a 
grant  of  land  at  the  time  of  breaking  his  fast  on  this  occasion,  we  should  find  him  dating 
his  grant  "krishna  chaturthi,  Tuesday,"  though  for  civil  purposes  the  date  is  krishna  tritiya, 
Tuesday. 

The  general  rule  may  be  given  briefly  that  for  all  practical  and  civil  purposes,  as  well  as 
for  some  ordinary  religious  purposes,  the  tithi  is  connected  with  that  week-day  or  solar  day  at 
whose  sunrise  it  is  current,  while  for  other  religious  purposes,  and  sometimes,  though  rarely, 
even  for  practical  purposes  also,  the  tithi  which  is  current  at  any  particular  moment  of  a  solar 
day  or  week-day  is  connected  with  that  day. 

32.  Adhika  and  kshaya  tithis.  Twelve  lunar  months  are  equal  to  about  354  solar  days 
(see  Art.  2^  above),  but  there  are  360  tithis  during  that  time  and  it  is  thus  evident  that  six  tithis 
must  somehow  be  expunged  in  civil  (solar^  reckoning.     Ordinarily  a  tithi  begins  on  one  day  and 

1     The  Nmiaijasimihu  is  cm<-  of  these  authnrative  works,  and  is  in  geueral  use  at  tlic  present  time  in  most  parts  of  India. 


i.S  THE  INDIAN  CALENDAR. 

ends  on  the  following  clay,  that  is  it  touches  two  successive  civil  days.  It  will  be  seen,  however, 
from  its  length  (Art.  j  abovcj  that  a  tithi  may  sometimes  begin  and  end  within  the  limits  of 
the  same  natural  day;  while  sometimes  on  the  contrary  it  touches  three  natural  days,  occupying 
the  whole  of  one  and  parts  of  the  two  on  each  side  of  it. 

.\  tithi  on  which  the  sun  does  not  rise  is  expunged.  It  has  sustained  a  diminution  or 
loss  (kshaya),  and  is  called  a  Icshaya  tithi.  On  the  other  hand,  a  tithi  on  which  the  sun  rises 
twice  is  repeated.  It  has  sustained  an  increase  (vriddhi),  and  is  called  an  adhika,  or  added,  tithi. 
Thus,  for  example,  in  the  paiichang  extract  given  above  {Art.  jo)  there  is  no  sunrise  during 
krishna  saptami  (7th),  and  it  is  therefore  expunged.  Krishna  shashthi  (6th)  was  current  at  sunrise  on 
Friday,  for  it  ended  16  palas  after  sunrise  ;  while  krishna  saptami  began  16  palas  after  that  sunrise  and 
ended  before  the  next  sunrise  ;  and  krishna  ashtami  (8th)  is  current  at  sunrise  on  the  Saturday. 
The  first  day  is  therefore  named  civilly  the  (6th)  shashthi,  Friday,  and  the  second  is  named  (8th) 
ashtami,  Saturday  ;  while  no  day  is  left  for  the  saptami,  and  it  has  necessarily  to  be  expunged 
altogether,  though,  strictly  speaking,  it  was  current  for  a  large  portion  of  that  Friday.  On  the 
other  hand,  there  are  two  sunrises  on  Bhadrapada  sukla  trayodasi  (sukla  13th),  and  that  tithi 
is  therefore  repeated.  It  commenced  after  56  gh.  44  pa.  on  Tuesday,  i  e.,  in  European  reckoning 
about  4.20  a.m.  on  the  Wednesday  morning,  was  current  on  the  whole  of  Wednesday,  and 
ended  on  Thursday  at  i  gh.  23  pa.  after  sunrise,  or  about  6.33  a  m.  It  therefore  touched  the 
Tuesday  (reckoned  from  sunrise  to  sunrise)  the  Wednesday  and  the  Thursday;  two  natural  civil 
days  began  on  it ;  two  civil  days,  Wednesday  and  Thursday,  bear  its  numeral  (13);  and  therefore 
it  is  said  to  be  repeated.  ' 

In  the  case  of  an  expunged  tithi  the  day  on  which  it  begins  and  ends  is  its  week-day. 
In    the    case    of   a  repeated  tithi  both  the  days  at  whose  sunrise  it  is  current  are  its  week-days. 

A    clue    for    finding  when  a  tithi  is  probably  repeated  or  e.xpunged  is  given  in  Art.    142. 

Generally  there  are  thirteen  expunctions  (ksliayas)  and  seven  repetitions  (vriddhis)  of 
tithis  in  twelve  lunar  months. 

The  day  on  which  no  tithi  ends,  or  on  which  two  tithis  end,  is  regarded  as  inauspicious. 
In  the  panchang  extract  above  (Art.  ^0)  Bhadrapada  sukla  trayodasi  Wednesday,  and 
Bhadrapada  krishna  shashthi,  Friday  (on  which  the  saptami  was  expunged),  were  therefore 
inauspicious. 

33.  It  will  be  seen  from  the  above  that  it  is  an  important  problem  with  regard 
to  the  Indian  mode  of  reckoning  time  to  ascertain  what  tithi,  nakshatra,  yoga,  or  karana  was 
current  at  sunrise  on  any  day,  and  when  it  began  and  ended.  Our  work  solves  this  problem 
in  all  cases. 

34.  \'ariatio)i  on  account  of  longitude.  The  moment  of  time  when  the  distance  between 
the  sun  and  moon  amounts  to  12,  or  any  multiple  of  I2,  degrees,>  or,  in  other  words,  the  moment 
of  time  when  a  tithi  ends,  is  the  same  for  all  places  on  the  earth's  surface;  and  this  also  applies  to 
nakshatras,  yogas,  and  karanas.  But  the  moment  of  sunrise  of  course  varies  with  the  locality, 
and  therefore  the  ending  moments  of  tlivisions  of  time  such  as  tithis,  when  referred  to  sun- 
rise, differ  at  different  places.  For  instance,  the  tithi  Bhadrapada  sukla  purnima  (j<r  rt/'d?t'<- ^/r/.jo) 
ended  at  Poona  at  8  gh.  11  pa.  after  sunrise,  or  about  9.16  a.m.  At  a  place  where  the  sun 
rose  I  gh.  earlier  than  it  does  at  Poona  the  tithi  would  evidently  have  ended  one  ghatika  later, 
or    at  9    gh.    1 1    pa.  after  sunrise,  or  at  about  9.40  a.ni.     On  the  other  hand,  at  a  place  where

onil  eiainples  are  certainly  crronrous,  and  due  to  misapprehcrnsioii.     [S.  B.  D.] 


THE  HINDU  CALENDAR.  19 

the    sun    rose    i    gh.    later    than    at    Poona    tlic  tithi  would  have  ended  when  7   gh.    i  i    pa.  had 
elapsed  since  the  sunrise  at  that  place,  or  at  about  8.52  a.m. 

35.  For  this  reason  the  expunction  and  repetition  of  tithis  often  differs  in  different  local- 
ities. Thus  the  nakshatra  Pijrvashadha  [see  pahchahg  extract  Art.  ;^o)  was  58  gh.  1 1  pa.  '  at  Poona 
on  Sunday,  .sukla  loth.  At  a  place  which  is  on  the  same  parallel  of  latitude,  but  12 
degrees  eastward,  the  sun  rises  2  gh.  earlier  than  at  Poona,  and  there  this  nakshatra  ended 
(58  gh.  II  pa.  -(-2  gh  — )  60  gh.  II  pa.  after  sunrise  on  Sunday,  that  is  at  11  pa.  after  sunrise 
on  Monday.  It  therefore  touches  three  natural  days,  and  therefore  it  (Purvashadha)  is  repeated, 
whereas  at  Poona  it  is  Uttarashadha  which  is  repeated.  On  the  other  hand,  the  nakshatra 
Magha  on  Krishna  13th  was  3  gh.  4  pa.,  and  Purva-phalguni  was(3  gh.  4  pa. -(- 56gh.  -  5  i  pa.  =) 
59  bh-  55  P^-  *t  Poona.  At  a  place  which  has  the  same  latitude  as  Poona,  but  is  situated  even  at 
so  short  a  distance  as  i  degree  to  the  east,  the  nakshatra  Purva-phalguni  ended  60  gh.  5  pa  after 
sunrise  on  Thursday,  that  is  5  pa.  after  sunrise  on  Friday ;  and  therefore  there  will  be  no 
kshaya  of  that  nakshatra  at  that  place,  but  the  following  nakshatra  Uttara  phalguni  will  be 
expunged  there. 

16.  True  or  apparent,  and  mean,  time.  The  sun,  or  more  strictly  the  earth  in  its  orbit, 
travels,  not  in  the  plane  of  the  equator,  but  in  that  of  the  ecliptic,  and  with  a  motion  which  varies 
every  day  ;  the  length  of  the  day,  therefore,  is  not  always  the  same  even  on  the  equator.  But  for 
calculating  the  motions  of  the  heavenly  bodies  it  is  evidently  convenient  to  have  a  day  of  uniform 
length,  and  for  this  reason  astronomers,  with  a  view  of  obtaining  a  convenient  and  uniform 
measure  of  time,  have  had  recourse  to  a  mean  solar  day,  the  length  of  which  is  equal  to 
the  mean  or  average  of  all  the  apparent  solar  days  in  the  year.  An  imaginary  sun,  called  the 
mean  sun,  is  conceived  to  move  uniformly  in  the  equator  with  the  mean  angular  velocity  of  the 
true  sun.  The  days  marked  by  this  mean  sun  will  all  be  equal,  and  the  interval  between  two 
successive  risings  of  the  mean  sun  on  the  equator  is  the  duration  of  the  mean  solar  day,  viz.,  24 
hours  or  60  ghatikas.  The  time  shown  by  the  true  sun  is  called  true  or  apparent  time,  and  the 
time  shown  by  the  mean  sun  is  known  as  mean  time.  Clocks  and  watches,  whose  hands  move, 
at  least  in  theory,  with  uniform  velocity,  evidently  give  us  mean  time.  With  European  astronomers 
"mean  noon"  is  the  moment  when  the  mean  sun  is  on  the  meridian;  and  the  "mean  time"  at 
any  in.stant  is  the  hour  angle  of  the  mean  sun  reckoned  westward  from  o  h.  to  24  h.,  mean 
noon  being  o  h.   for  astronomical  purposes. 

Indian  astronomers  count  the  day  from  sunrise,  to  sunrise,  and  give,  at  least  in  theory, 
the  ending  moments  of  tithis  in  time  reckoned  from  actual  or  true  sunrise.  The  true  or  apparent 
time  of  a  place,  therefore,  in  regard  to  the  Indian  paiichaiig,  is  the  time  counted  from  true 
[i.e.,  actual)  sunrise  at  that  place.  For  several  reasons  it  is  convenient  to  take  mean  sunrise  on 
the  equator  under  any  given  meridian  to  be  the  mean  sunrise  at  all  places  under  the  same  merid- 
ian. The  mean  sunrise  at  any  place  is  calculated  as  taking  place  at  o  gh.  or  o  h. — roughl)- 
6  a.m.  in  European  civil  reckoning;  and  the  mean  time  of  a  place  is  the  time  counted  from 
O  gh.  or  o  h. 

The  moment  of  true  sunrise  is  of  course  not  always  the  same  at  all  places,  but  varies  with 
the  latitude  and  longitude.     Even  at  the  same  place  it  varies  with  the  declination  of  the  sun,  which 

1  Instead  of  writing  at  full  length  that  such  and  such  a  tithi  "ends  at  so  many  ghatikila  after  suni'ise",  Indian  astronomers 
say  for  brevity  that  the  tithi  "is  so  many  ghatikls".     The  phrase  is  30  used  in  the  te.\t  in  this  sense. 

-  In  the  case  of  kshayas  in  the  j)aiich&ng  extract  the  ghatikds  of  expunged  tithis  etc.,  are  to  be  counted  after  the  end  of  the 
previons  tithi  etc.     In  some  panchdiigs  the  ghatikus  from  sunrise — 59  gh.  55pa.  in  the  pi-escnt  instance— are  given. 


JO  THE  INDIAN  CALENDAR. 

varies  every  day  of  the  year.  And  at  any  given  place,  and  on  any  given  day  of  the  year,  it  is  not 
the  same  for  all  years.  The  calculation,  therefore,  of  the  exact  moment  of  true  sunrise  at  any 
place  is  very  complicated  —too  complicated  to  be  given  in  this  work,  '  the  aim  of  which  is 
extreme  simplicity  and  readiness  of  calculation,  and  therefore  mean  time  at  the  meridian  of 
.  Ujjain  -  or  Lanka  is  used  throughout  what  follows. 

All  ending  moments  of  tithis  calculated  by  our  method  C  (Arts,  ijp  to  i6o)  are  in  Ujjain 
mean  time;  and  to  convert  Ujjain  mean  time  into  that  of  any  other  given  place  the  difference 
of  longitude  in  time— 4  minutes  (10  palas)  to  a  degree — should  be  added  or  subtracted  according 
as  the  place  is  east  or  west  of  Ujjain.  Table  XI.  gives  the  differences  of  longitude  in  time  for 
some  of  the  most  important  places  of  India. 

The  difference  between  the  mean  and  apparent  (true)  time  of  any  place  in  India  at  the 
present  day  varies  from  Jiil  (in  March  and  October)  to  26  minutes  (in  January  and  June)  in 
the  extreme  southern  parts  of  the  peninsular.     It  is  nowhere  more  than  65  minutes. 

37.  Basis  of  calculation  for  the  Tables.  All  calculations  made  in  this  work  in  accordance 
with  luni-solar  reckoning  are  based  on  the  Surya-Siddhanta,  and  those  for  solar  reckoning  on  the 
Sitrya  and  Arya  Siddhantas.  The  elements  of  the  other  authorities  being  somewhat  different,  the 
ending  moments  of  tithis  etc.,  or  the  times  of  sankrantis  as  calculated  by  them  may  sometimes 
differ  from  results  obtained  by  this  work;  and  it  must  never  be  forgotten  that,  when  checking  the  date 
of  a  document  or  record  which  lays  down,  for  instance,  that  on  a  certain  week-day  there  fell  a  certain 
tithi,  nakshatra,  or  yoga,  we  can  only  be  sure  of  accuracy  in  our  results  if  we  can  ascertain 
the  actual  Siddhanta  or  other  authority  used  by  the  author  of  the  calendar  which  the  drafter 
of  the  document  consulted.  Prof.  Jacobi  has  given  Tables  for  several  of  the  principal  Siddluiutas 
in  the  Epigraphica  Indica  [Vol.  If.,  pp.  4.03  et  seq.),  and  these  may  be  used  whenever  a  doubt 
exists  on  the  point. 

Although  all  possible  precautions  have  been  taken,  there,  must  also  be  a  slight 
element  of  uncertainty  in  the  results  of  a  calculation  made  by  our  Tables  owing  to  the  difference 
between  mean  and  apparent  time,  independently  of  that  arising  from  the  use  of  different 
authorities.  Owing  to  these  two  defects  it  is  necessary  sometimes  to  be  cautious.  If  by  any 
calculation  it  is  found  that  a  certain  tithi,  nakshatra.  yoga,  or  karana  ended  nearly  at 
the  close  of  a  solar  day — as,  for  example,  55  ghatikas  after  mean  sunrise  on  a  Sunday,  i.e.,  5 
ghatikas  before  sunrise  on  the  Monday — it  is  possible  that  it  really  ended  shortly  after  true  sunrise 
on  the  Monday.  And,  similarly,  if  the  results  shew  that  a  certain  tithi  ended  shortly  after 
the  commencement  of  a  solar  day,— for  instance,  5  ghatikas  after  mean  sunrise  on  a  Sunday. — it 
is  possible  that  it  really  ended  shortly  before  the  true  termination  of  the  preceding  day,  Saturday. 

1  Since  this  work  was  in  the  Press,  Professor  Jacobi  lias  imblishcd  in  the  Epit/raphia  Indica  (Vol.  11,  pp.  487  — 498)a  ti-eatise 
with  tables  for  the  calculation  of  Hindu  dates  in  true  local  time,  to  which  we  refer  our  readers. 

2  Here  Lanka  is  not  Ceylon,  but  a  place  supposed  to  be  on  the  equator,  or  in  lat.  0°  0'  0"  on  the  meridian  of  Vjjain,  or 
longitude  75°  40'.  It  is  of  great  imiiortauee  to  know  the  exact  east  longitude  of  Ujjain,  since  upon  it  depends  the  verification  of 
apparent  phenomena  throughout  India.  Calculation  by  the  different  Siddhftntas  can  be  checked  by  the  best  European  science  if  that 
point  can  be  certainly  determined.  The  great  Trigonometical  Survey  map  makes  the  centre  of  the  city  75°  49'  45'  E.  long,  and 
23°  11'  10"  N.  lat.  But  this  is  subject  to  tivo  corrections;  first,  a  correction  of  1'  9"  to  reduce  the  longitude  to  the  origin  of  the 
Madras  Observatory  taken  as  80°  17'  21",  and  secondly,  a  farther  reduction  of  2'  30"  to  reduce  it  to  the  latest  value,  80°  14' 51". 
of  that  Observatory,  total  3'  39".  This  reduces  the  K.  long,  of  the  centre  of  Ujjain  city  to  75°  46'  06".  I  take  it  therefore,  that 
amidst  conflicting  authorities,  the  best  of  whom  vary  from  7.")°  43'  to  75°  51',  we  may  for  the  present  accept  75°  46'  as  the  nearest 
approach  to  the  truth.  The  accuracy  of  the  base,  the  Observatory  of  Madras,  will  before  long  be  again  tested,  and  whatever  dillereucc 
is  found  to  exist  between  the  new  fixture  and  8(1°  14'  51",  Ihal  difference  applied  to  75°  46'  will  give  the  correct  value  of  the 
E.  long,  we  require.     [R.  S.j

to  about  five  ghatikas,  rarely  more  in  the  case  of  tithis,  nakshatras,  and  karanas;  but  in  the  case 
of  yogas  it  will  sometimes  reach  seven  ghatikas. 

Calculations  made  by  our  method  C  will  result  in  the  finding  of  a  "  tithi  indc.v  "  (A),  or 
a  nakshatra  or  yoga-index  («.  or  j'.),  all  of  which  will  be  explained  further  on ;  but  it  may 
be  stated  in  this  connection  that  when  at  any  ascertained  mean  sunrise  it  is  found  that  the 
resulting  index  is  within  30  of  the  ending  index  of  the  tithi,  [Table  VIII.,  col.  j),  nakshatra  or 
karana  {id.  col.  S,  p,  10),  or  within  50  of  the  ending  index  of  a  yoga  {id.  col.  ij),  it  is  possible 
that  the  result  may  be  one  day  wrong,  as  explained  above.  The  results  arrived  at  by  our 
Tables,  however,  may  be  safely  reHed  on  for  all  ordinary  purposes. 

38.  Nakshatras  There  are  certain  conspicuous  stars  or  groups  of  stars  in  the  moon's 
observed  path  in  the  heavens,  and  from  a  very  remote  age  these  have  attracted  attention. 
They  are  called  in  Sanskrit  "Nakshatras".  They  were  known  to  the  Chaldceans  and  to  the  ancient 
Indian  Aryas.  Roughly  speaking  the  moon  makes  one  revolution  among  the  stars  in  about  27  days, 
and  this  no  doubt  led  to  the  number  ^  of  nakshatras  being  limited  to  27. 

The  distance  between  the  chief  stars,  called  yoga-taras,  of  the  different  nakshatras  is  not 
uniform.  Naturally  it  should  be  13°  20',  but,  in  some  cases  it  is  less  than  7",  while  in  others 
it  is  more  than  20°.  It  is  probable  that  in  ancient  times  the  moon's  place  was  fixed  merely  by  stating 
that  she  was  near  a  particular  named  nakshatra  (star)  on  a  certain  night,  or  on  a  certain  occasion. 
Afterwards  it  was  found  necessary  to  make  regular  divisions  of  the  moon's  path  in  her  orbit,  for 
the  sake  of  calculating  and  foretelling  her  position;  and  hence  the  natural  division  of  the  ecliptic, 
consisting  of  twenty-seven  equal  parts,  came  into  use,  and  each  of  these  parts  was  called  after  a 
separate  nakshatra  {see  Art.  8).  The  starry  nakshatras,  however,  being  always  in  view  and  familiar 
for  many  centuries,  could  not  be  dispensed  with,  and  therefore  a  second  and  unequal  division 
was  resorted  to.  Thus  two  systems  of  nakshatras  came  into  use.  One  we  call  the  ordinary  or  equal- 
space  system,  the  othei'  the  unequal-space  system.  The  names  of  the  twenty-seven  stellar  nakshatras 
are  given  to  both  sets.  In  the  equal-space  system  each  nakshatra  has  13°  20'  of  space,  and  when 
the  sun,  the  moon,  or  a  planet  is  between  0°,  i.e.,  no  degrees,  and  1 3°  20'  in  longit  ide  it  is  said  to  be  in 
the  first  nakshatra  Asvini,  and  so  on.  The  unequal-space  system  is  of  two  kinds.  One  is  described 
by  Garga  and  others,  and  is  called  here  the  "Garga  system."  According  to  it  fifteen  of  the 
nakshatras  are  held  to  be  of  equal  average  (mean)  length — i.e.,  13°  20', — but  six  measure  one 
and-a-half  times  the  average — i.e.,  20",  and  six  others  only  half  the  average,  viz.,  6°  40'.  The  other 
system  is  described  by  Brahmagupta  and  others,  and  therefore  we  call  it  the  "  Brahma-Siddhanta  " 
system.  In  its  leading  feature  it  is  the  same  with  Garga's  system,  but  it  differs  a  little  from 
Garga's  in  introducing  Abhijit  in  addition  to  the  twenty-seven  ordinary  nakshatras.  The  moon's 
daily  mean  motion, — 13  degrees,  10  minutes,  35  seconds, — is  taken  as  the  average  space  of  a 
nakshatra.  And  as  the  total  of  the  spaces  thus  allotted  to  the  usual  twenty-seven  nakshatras, 
on  a  similar  arrangement  of  unequal  spaces,  amounts  to  only  355  degrees,  45  minutes,  45  seconds, 
the  remainder, — 4  degrees,  14  minutes,  15  seconds, — is  allotted  to  Abhijit,  as  an  additional 
nakshatra  placed  between  Uttara-Ashadha  and  Sravana. 

The  longitude  of  the  ending  points  of  all  the  nakshatras  according  to  these  three  systems 

1  The  mean  length  of  the  moon's  revolution  among  the  stars  is  27.32166  days  (27-321671  according  to  \.\i<:  Siirya  Siddhdnla). 
Its  least  duration  is  27  days,  4  hoars,  and  the  jrreatest  about  7  hours  longer.  The  number  of  days  is  thus  between  27  and  2S,  and 
therefore  the  number  of  n.ilishatriis  was  sometimes  taken  as  28  by  the  aucicnt  Indian  Aryiis.  Tlic  extra  nakshaira  is  called  Abliijit 
{See  Table  Fill.,  cot.  7.)     [S.  B.  B.] 


22  THE  INDIAN  CALENDAR. 

is  given  below.  The  entries  of  "I/2"  and  "1 1/2"  in  subcolumn  3  mark  the  variation  in  length 
from  the  average. 

The  nakshatras  by  any  of  these  systems,  for  all  years  between  300  and  1900  A.  D.,  can 
be  calculated  by  our  Tables  (sec  method  "C",  Arts,  ijp  to  160).  The  indices  for  them,  adapted 
to  our  Tables,  are  given  in  Table  VIII.,  cols.  8,  9,   10. 

The  ordinary  or  equal-space  system  of  nakshatras  is  in  general  use  at  the  present  day,  the  un- 
equal-space systems  having  almost  dropped  out  of  use.  They  were,  however,  undoubtedly  prevalent  to  a 
great  extent  in  early  times,  and  they  were  constantly  made  use  of  on  important  religious  occasions.  ^

39.  Auspicious  Yogas.  Besides  the  27  yogas  described  above  {^Art.  p),  and  quite  different 
from  them,  there  are  in  the  Indian  Calendar  certain  conjunctions,  also  called  yoi^as,  which  only 
occur  when  certain  conditions,  as,  for  instance,  the  conjunction  of  certain  varas  and  nakshatras, 
or  varas  and  tithis,  are  fulfilled.  Thus,  when  the  nakshatra  Hasta  falls  on  a  Sunday  there  occurs 


1     These  systems  of  uakshatras  arc  more  fully  described  by 
of  the  Ind.  Ant,,  (p.  2  ff.)     [S.  B.  D.l 


in  relation  to  ihc  "twelve  year  cycle  of  Jupiter"  in  Vol.  XVU.

an  amrita  siddhiyoga.  In  the  paiichang  extract  {Art. ^d)  given  above  there  is  a.n  awrita  sidd/eij'oga 
on  the  2nd,  5th  and  i8th  of  September.  It  is  considered  an  auspicious  yoga,  while  some  yogas 
are  inauspicious. 

40.  Karanas.  A  karana  being  half  a  tithi,  there  are  60  karanas  in  a  lunar  month.  There 
are  seven  karanas  in  a  series  of  eight  cycles — total  56 — every  month,  from  the  second  half  of 
sukla  pratipada  (ist)  up  to  the  end  of  the  first  half  of  krishna  chaturdasi  (14th).  The  other  four 
karanas  are  respectively  from  the  seconil  half  of  krishna  chaturdasi  (14th)  to  the  end  of  the  first 
half  of  sukla  pratipada.  ' 

Table  VIII.,  col.  4,  gives  the  serial  numbers  and  names  of  karanas  for  the  first  half,  and 
col.   5   for  the  second  half,  of  each  tithi. 

40«.  Eclipses.  Eclipses  of  the  sun  and  moon  play  an  important  part  in  inscriptions,  since, 
according  to  ancient  Indian  ideas,  the  value  of  a  royal  grant  was  greatly  enhanced  by  its  being 
made  on  the  occasion  of  such  a  phenomenon ;  and  thus  it  often  becomes  essential  that  the  moments 
of  their  occurrence  should  be  accurately  ascertained.  The  inscription  mentions  a  date,  and  an 
eclipse  as  occurring  on  that  date.  Obviously  we  shall  be  greatly  assisted  in  the  determination  of 
the  genuineness  of  the  inscription  if  we  can  find  out  whether  such  was  actually  the  case.  Up  to 
the  present  the  best  list  of  eclipses  procurable  has  been  that  published  by  Oppolzer  in  his 
'^  Canon  der  Finsternisse"  (Dejikschriften  der  Kaiserl.  Akadoitie  der  Wisscnscliaften.  Vienna, 
Vo/.  LI  I.),  but  this  concerns  the  whole  of  our  globe,  not  merely  a  portion  like  India;  the  standard 
meridian  is  that  of  Greenwich,  requiring  correction  for  longitude ;  and  the  accompanying  maps  are 
on  too  small  a  scale  to  be  useful  e.\cept  as  affording  an  approximation  from  which  details  can 
be  worked  out.  Our  object  is  to  save  our  readers  from  the  necessity  of  working  out  such 
complicated  problems.  Prof.  Jacobi's  Tables  in  the  Indian  Antiquary  {Wo\.  XVll.)  and  Epigrap/iia 
Indica  (Vol.  II.)  afford  considerable  help,  but  do  not  entirely  meet  the  requirements  of  the 
situation.  Dr.  Schram's  contribution  to  this  volume,  and  the  lists  prepared  by  him,  give  the  dates 
of  all  eclipses  in  India  and  the  amount  of  obscuration  observable  at  any  place.  His  article  speaks 
for  itself,  but  we  think  it  will  be  well  be  add  a  few  notes. 

Prof.  Jacobi  writes  (Epig.  Ind.,  II.,  p.  422): — "The  eclipses  mentioned  in  inscriptions  are 
not  always  actually  observed  eclipses,  but  calculated  ones.  My  reasons  for  this  opinion  are  the 
following :  Firstly,  eclipses  are  auspicious  moments,  when  donations,  such  as  are  usually  recorded 
in  inscriptions,  are  particularly  meritorious.  They  were  therefore  probably  selected  for  such 
occasions,  and  must  accordingly  have  been  calculated  beforehand.  No  doubt  they  were  entered 
in  panchangs  or  almanacs  in  former  times  as  they  are  now.  Secondly,  even  larger  eclipses 
of  the  sun,  up  to  seven  digits,  pass  unobserved  by  common  people,  and  smaller  ones  are  only 
visible  under  favourable  circumstances.  Thirdly,  the  Hindus  place  implicit  trust  in  their  Sastras, 
and  would  not  think  it  necessary  to  test  their  calculations  by  actual  observation.  The  writers 
of  inscriptions  would  therefore  mention  an  eclipse  if  they  found  one  predicted  in  their  almanacs." 
Our  general  Table  will  occasionally  be  found  of  use.  Thus  a  lunar  eclipse  can  only  occur 
at  the  time  of  full  moon  (pi'irnima),  and  can  only  be  visible  when  the  moon  is  above  the  horizon 
at  the  place  of  the  observer;  so  that  when  the  purnima  is  found  by  our  Tables  to  occur  dur- 
ing most  part  of  the  daytime  there  can  be  no  visible  eclipse.  But  it  is  possibly  visible 
if  the  purnima  is  found,  on  any  given  meridian,  to  end  within  4  ghatikas  after  sunrise,  or  within 
4    ghatikas    before    sunset.     A    solar  eclipse  occurs  only  on  an  amavasya  or  new  moon  day.     If 

•     According  to  the  Siirya-Siddhdnta  the  four  karauas  are  Sakuiii,  Naga.  Chatushparla  and  KiihstnKhna,  but  we  have  foUoned  thf 
present  practice  of  Westeni  India,  which  is  supported  by  Var&hamihira  and  Brahmagupta. 


24  THE  INDIAN  CALENDAR. 

the  amavasya  ends  between  sunset  and  sunrise  it  is  not  visible.     If  it  ends  between  sunrise  and 
sunset  it  may  be  visible,  but  not  of  course  always. 

41.  Lunar  mo7iths  and  their  names.  The  usual  modern  system  of  naming  lunar  months 
is  given  above  (Art.  14),  and  the  names  in  use  will  be  found  in  Tables  II.  and  III.  In  early  times, 
however,  the  months  were  known  by  another  set  of  names,  which  are  given  below,  side  by  side 
with  those  by  which  they  are  at  present  known. 

Ancient  names.  Modern  names.  Ancient   names.  .Modern  names.

The  names  "Madhu'"  and  others  evidently  refer  to  certain  seasons  and  may  be  called  season- 
names  '  to  distinguish  them  from  "  Chaitra  "  and  those  others  which  are  derived  from  the  nakshatras. 
The  latter  may  be  termed  sidereal  names  or  star-names.  Season-names  are  now  nowhere  in  use, 
but  are  often  met  with  in  Indian  works  on  astronomy,  and  in  Sanskrit  literature  generally. 

The  season-names  of  months  are  first  met  with  in  the  mantra  sections,  or  tlie  Samhitas, 
of  both  the  Yajur-Vedas,  and  are  certainly  earlier  than  the  .sidereal  names  which  are  not 
found  in  the  SamJiitirs  of  any  of  the  Vedas,  but  only  in  some  of  the  Bralimanas,  and  even 
there  but  seldom.  - 

42.  The  sidereal  names  "Chaitra",  etc.,  are  originally  derived  from  the  names  of  the 
nakshatras.  The  moon  in  her  revolution  passes  about  twelve  times  completely  through  the 
twenty-seven  starry  nakshatras  in  the  course  of  the  year,  and  of  necessity  is  at  the  full  while 
close  to  some  of  them.  The  full-moon  tithi  (purniina),  on  which  the  moon  became  full  when 
near  the  nakshatra  Chitra,  was  called  Chaitri;  and  the  lunar  month  which  contained  the  Chaitri 
puniima  was  called  Chaitra  and  so  on. 

43.  But  the  stars  or  groups  of  stars  which  give  their  names  to  the  months  are  not  at 
equal  distances  from  one  another;  and  as  this  circumstance, — together  with  the  phenomenon  of 
the  moon's  apparent  varying  daily  motion,  and  the  fact  that  her  synodic  differs  from  her  sidereal 
revolution — prevents  the  moon  from  becoming  full  year  after  year  in  the  same  nakshatra,  it  was 
natural  that,  while  the  twenty-seven  nakshatras  were  allotted  to  the  twelve  months,  the  months 
themselves  should  be  named  by  taking  the  nakshatras  more  or  less  alternately.  The  nakshatras 
thus  allotted  to  each  month  are  given  on  the  next  page. 

44.  It  is  clear  that  this  practice,  though  it  was  natural  in  its  origin  and  though  it  was 
ingeniously  modified  in  later  years,  must  often  have  occasioned  considerable  confusion;  and 
so  we  find  that  the  months  gradually  ceased  to  have  their  names  regulated  according  to  the 
conjunction  of  full  moons  and  nakshatras,  and  were  habitually  named  after  the  solar  montlis 
in    which    they  occurred.     This    change     began  to  take  place  abjut   1400  B.  C.,  the  time  of  the 

1  Madhu  is  "honey",  "Bweet  spring".  Mddhava.  "the  sweet  one".  Sukra  and  Suehi  both  mean  "bright".  iVoiAo*,  the  rainy 
season.  Nabhasya,  "vapoury",  "rainy",  hh  or  hha,  •'draneht"or  "refreshment",  "fertile".  Urj,  "strength",  "vigour".  Sahat 
"strength".  Sahatya  "strong".  7'aj>as  "pcnoucc",  "mortification",  "pain",  "fire".  Tnpasya,  "produced  by  heat",  "pain".  All 
are  Vedic  words. 

2  In  my  opinion  the  sidereal  names  "Chaitra"  and  the  rest,  came  into  use  about  2000  U.  C  They  are  certainly  not  later 
than  1500  B.C.,  and  not  earlier  than  4000  B.C.     [S.  B    D.]

45.  Adiiika  and'  kshaya  mdsas.  It  will  be  seen  from  Art.  24  that  the  mean  length  of 
a  solar  month  is  'greater  by  about  nine-tenths  of  a  day  than  that  of  a  lunar  month,  and  that  the 
true  length  of  a  solar  month,  according  to  the  Sitrya-Siddhanta,  varies  from  29  d.  7  h.  38  m. 
to  31  d.  I5h.  28  m.  Now  the  moon's  synodic  motion,  viz.,  her  motion  relative  to  the  sun,  is  also 
irregular,  and  consequently  all  the  lunar  months  vary  in  length.  The  variation  is  approximately 
from  29  d.  7  h.  20  m.  to  29  d.  19  h.  30  m.,  and  thus  it  is  clear  that  in  a  lunar  month  there  will 
often  be  no  solar  sankranti,  and  occasionally,  though  rarely,  two.  This  will  be  best  understood 
by  the  following  table  and  explanation.     (See  p.  26.) 

We  will  suppose  (see  the  left  side  of  the  diagram,  cols.  1,2.)  that  the  sun  entered  the  sign  Mesha, — 
that  is,  that  the  Mesha  sankranti  took  place,  and  therefore  the  solar  month  Mesha  commenced, — 
shortly  before  the  end  of  an  amanta  lunar  month,  which  was  accordingly  named  "  Chaitra  "  in  con- 
formity with  the  above  rule  (Art.  14.  or  ^.f) ;  that  the  length  of  the  solar  month  Mesha  was  greater  than 
that  of  the  following  lunar  month;  and  that  the  sun  therefore  stood  in  the  same  sign  during 
the  whole  of  that  lunar  month,  entering  the  sign  Vrishabha  shortly  after  the  beginning  of  the 
third  lunar  month,  which  was  consequently  named  Vaisakha  because  the  Vrishabha  sankranti 
took  place,  and  the  solar  month  Vrishabha  commenced,  in  it, — the  Vrishabha  sankranti  being 
the  one  next  following  the  Mesha  sankranti.  Ordinarily  there  is  one  sankranti  in  each  lunar 
month,  but  in  the  present  instance  there  was  no  sankranti  whatever  in  the  second  lunar  month 
lying  between  Chaitra  and  Vai.sakha. 

The  lunar  month  in  which  there  is  no  saiikranti  is  called  an  (?()'/i'//('rt  (added  or  intercalated) 
month ;  while  the  month  which  is  not  adhika,  but  is  a  natural  month  because  a  sankranti  actuall>- 
occurred  in  it,  is  called  iiija,  i.e.,  true  or  regular  month.  '  We  thus  have  an  added  month 
between  natural  Chaitra  and  natural  Vai.sakha. 


1  Professor  Kielhorn  is  satisfied  that  the  terms  adhika  and  nija  are  quite  modern,  the  nomenclature  usually  adopted  in  docu- 
ment3  and  inscriptions  earlier  then  the  present  century  being  prathama  (first)  and  dvitii/d  (second).  He  alluded  to  this  in  hid.

THE  INDIAN  CALENDAR. 


The  next  peculiarity  is  that  when  there  are  two  saiikrantis  in  a  lunar  month  there  is  a 
kshaya  masa,  or  a  complete  expunction  of  a  month.  Suppose,  for  instance,  that  the  Vrischika 
sankranti  took  place  shortly  after  the  beginning  of  the  amanta  lunar  month  Karttika  {see  the 
lower  half  of  the  diagram  col.  2) ;  that  in  the  next  lunar  month  the  Dhanus-saiikranti  took  place

shortly  after  it  began,  and  the  Makara-sankranti  shortly  before  it  ended,  so  that  there  were 
two  saiikrantis  in  it;  and  that  in  the  third  month  the  Kumbha-sankranti  took  place  before  the  end 
of  it.  The  lunar  month  in  which  the  Kumbha-sankranti  occurred  is  naturally  the  month  Magha. 
Thus  between  the  natural  Karttika  and  the  natural  Magha  there  was  only  one  lunar  month  iiistead 
of  two,  and  consequently  one   is  said  to  be  expunged. 

46.  Thcr'r  itai/tcs.  It  will  be  seen  that  the  general  brief  rule  (.-Irt.  ././)  for  naming  lunar 
months  is  altogether  wanting  in  many  respects,  and  therefore  rules  had  to  be  framed  to  meet 
the  emergency.  But  different  rules  were  framed  by  different  teachers,  and  so  arose  a  difference 
in  practice.     The  rule   followed  at  present  is  given  in  the  following  verse. 

Mniadistho  Ravir  ycshaiii  arai'iibha-prathatnc  kshane  \  bhavct  tc  'Mc  Chandra  iiiasii.i

12th  century  A.D.,  arc  followed  in  this  diogi-am. 


THE  iriNnu  calendar.  27 

"The  twelve  lunar  months,  at  whose  first  moment  the  sun  stands  in  Mina  and  the  following 
[signs],  are  called  Chaitra,  and  the  others  (in  succession]." 

According  to  this  rule  the  added  month  in  the  above  example  (,Art.  /j)  will  be  named 
Vaisakha,  since  the  sun  was  in  Mesha  when  it  began;  and  in  the  example  of  the  expunged 
month  the  month  between  the  natural  Karttika  and  the  natural  Magha  will  be  named  Margasirsha, 
because  the  sun  was  in  Vrischika  when  it  commenced,  and  Pausha  will  be  considered  as  expunged. 

This  rule  is  given  in  a  work  named  Kalatatva-vlvechana,  and  is  attributed  to  the  sage  Vyasa.  The 
celebrated  astronomer  Bhaskaracharya  (A.  D.  1 1  50)  seems  to  have  followed  the  same  rule,  '  and 
it  must  thersfore  have  been  in  use  at  least  as  early  as  the  1 2th  century  A.  D.  As  it  is  the  general 
rule   obtaining  through  most  part  of  India  in  the  present  day  we  have  followed  it  in  this  work. 

There  is  another  rule  which  is  referred  to  in  some  astronomical  and  other  works,  and  is 
attributed  to  the  Brahma-Siddhanta.  -     It  is  as  follows : 

"  Meshadisthe  Savitari  yo  yo  niasah  prapuryate  chandrak  \  Chaitradyah  sa  jiieyah  picrtid- 
vitve  'dhimaso  'ntyah."  \\ 

"That  lunar  month  which  is  completed  when  the  sun  is  in  [the  sign]  Mesha  etc.,  is  to  be 
known  as  Chaitra,  etc.  [respectively] ;  when  there  are  two  completions,  the  latter  (of  them]  is  an 
added  month." 

It  will  be  seen  from  the  Table  given  above  (p.  26)  that  for  the  names  of  ordinary  months 
both  rules  are  the  same,  but  that  they  differ  in  the  case  of  added  and  suppressed  months.  The 
added  month  between  natural  Chaitra  and  natural  Vaisakha,  in  the  example  in  Art.  ./j,  having 
ended  when  the  sun  was  in  Mesha,  would  be  named  "Chaitra"  by  this  second  rule,  but  "Vai- 
sakha" by  the  first  rule,  because  it  commenced  when  the  sun  was  in  Mesha.  Again,  the  month 
between  natural  Karttika  and  natural  Magha,  in  the  example  of  an  expunged  month,  having 
ended  when  the  sun  was  in  Makara,  would  be  named  "Pausha"  by  this  second  rule,  and  conse- 
quently Margasirsha  would  be  expunged;  while  by  the  first  rule  it  would  be  named  "  Margasirsha  " 
since  it  commenced  when  the  sun  was  in  Vrischika,  and  Pausha  would  be  the  expunged 
month.  It  will  be  noticed,  of  course,  that  the  difference  is  only  in  name  and  not  in  the  period 
added  or  suppressed.  ^  Both  these  rules  should  be  carefully  borne  in  mind  when  studying 
inscriptions  or  records  earlier  than    i  lOO  A.  D. 

47.  Their  determination  according  to  true  an  d  inea?i  systems.  It  must  be  noted  with  regard 
to  the  intercalation  and  suppression  of  months,  that  whereas  at  present  these  are  regulated  by  the  sun's 
and  moon's  apparent  motion, — in  other  words,  by  the  apparent  length  of  the  solar  and  lunar 
months — and  though  this  practice  has  been  in  use  at  least  from  A.  D.  1 100  and  was  followed 
by  Bhaskaracharya,  there  is  evidence  to  show  that  in  earlier  times  they  were  regulated  by 
the  mean  length  of  months.  It  was  at  the  epoch  of  the  celebrated  astronomer  Sripati,  *  or  about 
A.  D.  1040,  that  the  change  of  practice  took  place,  as  evidenced  by  the  following  passage  in 
his  Siddhanta  Sekhara,  (quoted  in  the  Jyotisha-darpaiia,  in  A.  D.   1557-) 

1  Sec  his  Siddlidnta-Siromani,  madhyamddhihara,  adhimdsanirtiatja,  verse  6,  and  his  own  commentan'  on  it.     [S.  B.  D.] 

2  It  is  not  to  be  found  in  either  of  the  Brahma-Siddhdntas  referred  to  above,  but  there  is  a  third  Brahma-Siddhftnta  which 
I  have  not  seen  as  yet.     [S.  B.  D.j 

3  In  Prof.  Chattre's  list  of  added  and  suppressed  mouths,  in  th()^c  published  in  Mr.  Cowasjcc  Patells'  Chronology,  and  in 
Genei'al  Sir  A.  Cunningham's  Indian  Eras  it  is  often  noted  that  the  same  mouth  is  both  added  and  suppressed.  But  it  is  clear  from 
the  above  rules  and  definitions  that  this  is  impossible.  K  month  cannot  be  both  added  and  suppressed  at  the  same  time.  The  mistake 
arose  probably  from  resort  being  made  to  the  firet  rule  for  naming  adhika  months,  and  to  the  second  for  the  suppressed  months. 

*  Thanks  are  due  to  Mr.  Mahadco  Chiiiipiji  Apte.  B.A.,  L.L.B.,  very  recently  deceased,  the  founder  of  the  Anand&srama  at 
Poona,  for  his  discovery  of  a  part  of  Sripati's  Karaiia  named  the  Bhikoiida,  from  which  I  got  Sripati's  date.  I  find  that  it  was 
written  in  Saka  961  expired  (A.D.  1039-40).     [S.  B.  D.]

"The  lunar  month  which  has  no  mean  sun's  entrance  into  a  sign  shall  be  a  mean  intercal- 
ated month.  This  is  the  definition  of  a  mean  added  month.  The  learned  Acharyas  should  leave 
off  I  using]  the  mean  added  months,  and  should  go  by  apparent  reckoning,  by  which  the  added 
month  would  be  apparent  (true)." 

It  is  clear,  therefore,  that  mean  intercalations  were  in  use  up  to  Sripatis  time.  In  the  Vc- 
dahga  Jyotisha  only  the  mean  motions  of  the  sun  and  moon  are  taken  into  account,  and  it 
may  therefore  be  assumed  that  at  that  time  the  practice  of  regulating  added  and  suppressed 
months  by  apparent  motions  was  unknown.  These  apparent  motions  of  the  sun  and  moon  are 
treated  of  in  the  astronomical  Siddhantas  at  present  in  use,  and  so  far  as  is  known  the  present 
system  of  astronomy  came  into  force  in  India  not  later  than  400  A.  D.  '  But  on  the  other 
hand,  the  method  of  calculating  the  ahargana  (a  most  important  matter),  and  of  calculating  the 
places  of  planets,  given  in  the  Surya  and  other  Siddhantas,  is  of  such  a  nature  that  it  seems 
only  natural  to  suppose  that  the  system  of  mean  intercalations  obtained  for  many  centuries  after 
the  present  system  of  astronomy  came  into  force,  and  thus  we  find  Sripati's  utterance  quoted  in  an 
astronomical  work  of  the  1 5th  century.  There  can  be  no  suppression  of  the  month  by  the  mean 
system,  for  the  mean  length  of  a  solar  month  is  longer  than  that  of  a  mean  lunar  month,  and 
therefore  two  mean  sahkrantis  cannot  take  place  in  a  mean  lunar  month. 

The  date  of  the  adoption  of  the  true  (apparent)  system  of  calculating  added  and  suppressed 
months  is  not  definitely  known.  Bhaskaracharya  speaks  of  suppressed  months,  and  it  seems 
from  his  work  that  mean  intercalations  were  not  known  in  his  time  (A.  D.  11 50.)  We  have 
therefore  in  our  Tables  given  mean  added  months  up  to  A.  U.  iioo.  and  true  added  and  sup- 
pressed months  for  the  whole  period  covered  by  our  Tables.  - 

48.  For  students  more  familiar  with  solar  reckoning  we  will  give  the  rules  for  the  intercala- 
tion and  suppression  of  months  in  another  form.  Ordinarily  one  lunar  month  ends  in  each  solar 
month.  When  two  lunar  months  end  in  a  solar  month  the  latter  of  the  two  is  said  to  be  an 
adhika  (added  or  intercalated)  month,  and  by  the  present  practice  it  receives  the  name  of  the 
following  natural  lunar  month,  but  with  the  prefix  adhika.  Thus  in  the  Table  on  p.  25,  two 
lunar  months  end  during  the  solar  month  Mesha,  the  second  of  which  is  adhika  and  receives, 
by  the  present  practice,  the  name  of  the  following  natural  lunar  month.  V'ai.sakha.  When  no 
lunar  month  ends  in  a  solar  month  there  is  a  kshaya  niasa,  or  expunged  or  suppressed  month; 
i.e.,  the  name  of  one  lunar  month  is  altogether  dropped,  viz.,  by  the  present  practice,  the  one 
following  that  which  would  be  derived  from  the  solar  month.  Thus,  in  the  Table  above,  no  lunar 
month  ends  in  the  solar  month  Dhanus.  IMarga.sirsha  is  the  name  of  the  month  in  which  the 
Dhanus  saiikranti  occurs;  the  name  Pausha  is  therefore  expunged. 

The  rule  for  naming  natural  lunar  months,  and  the  definition  of,  and  rule  for  naming,  added 

'  Up  to  rcccntlj  tlie  diitc  was  (•(insidcred  to  be  iibuul  llii-  fith  icnlurj-  A.D.  l)r  TUibaut,  oni-  of  the  highest  living  authorities

came  into  existence  not  later  than  the  2nd  oentiiry  13  C.     [S.  B.  D  ] 

*  I  am  inclined  to  believe  that  of  the  two  rules  for  naming  lunar  mouths  the  second  was  connected  with  the  mean  system 
of  added  months,  and  that  the  first  came  into  existcnee  with  the  adoption  of  the  tni<'  system  But  I  am  nut  as  yet  in  possession  of 
any  cvidcuec  on  the  point.     See,  however,  the  note  to  Art.  61  below.     [S.  B.  D.] 


THE  HINDU  CALENDAR.  29 

and  suppressed  months,  may  be  summed  up  as  follows.  That  amanta  lunar  month  in  whicii  the 
Mesha  sankranti  occurs  is  called  Chaitra,  and  the  rest  in  succession.  That  amanta  lunar  month 
in  which  there  is  no  sankranti  is  adhika  and  receives  the  name  (i)  of  the  preceding  natural  lunar 
month  by  the  old  Brahma-Siddhanta  rule,  (2)  of  the  following  natural  lunar  month  by  the  present 
rule.  When  there  are  two  sahkrantis  in  one  amanta  lunar  month,  the  name  which  would  be 
derived  from  the  first  is  dropped  by  the  old  Brahma-Siddhanta  rule,  the  name  which  would  be 
derived  from  the  second  is  dropped  by  the  present  rule. 

49.  Different  results  by  different  Siddhantas.  The  use  of  different  Siddhantas  will  some- 
times create  a  difference  in  the  month  to  be  intercalated  or  suppressed,  but  only  when  a  san- 
kranti takes  place  very  close  '  to  the  end  of  the  amavasya.  Such  cases  will  be  rare.  Our 
calculations  for  added  and  suppressed  months  have  been  made  by  the  Siirya-Siddhanta, 
and  to  assist  investigation  we  have  been  at  the  pains  to  ascertain  and  particularize  the 
exact  moments  (given  in  tithi-indices,  and  tithis  and  decimals)  of  the  sankrantis  preceding  and 
succeeding  an  added  or  suppressed  month,  from  which  it  can  be  readily  seen  if  there  be  a  probability 
of  any  divergence  in  results  if  a  different  Siddhanta  be  used.  The  Special  Tables  published  by 
Professor  Jacobi  in  the  Epigraphia  Indica  (Vol.,  II.,  pp.  403  ff. )  must  not  be  relied  on  for  calculations 
of  added  and  suppressed  months  of  Siddhantas  other  than  the  Snrya-Siddkanta.  If  a  different 
Siddhanta  happened  to  have  been  used  by  the  original  computor  of  the  given  Hindu  date, 
and  if  such  date  is  near  to  or  actually  in  an  added  or  suppressed  month  according  to  our 
Table  I.,  it  is  possible  that  the  result  as  worked  out  by  our  Tables  may  be  a  whole  month 
wrong.  Our  mean  intercalations  from  A.  D.  300  to  11 00  are  the  same  by  the  original  Surya- 
Siddhanta,  the  present  Siirya-Siddlianta,  and  the  first  Arya-Siddhanta. 

50.  Sotne  pcadiarities.  Certain  points  are  worth  noticing  in  connection  with  our  calcula- 
tions of  the  added  and  suppressed  months  for  the  1600  years  from  A.  D.  300  to  1900  according 
to  the  SHrya-Siddhaftta. 

{a)  Intercalations  occur  generally  in  the  3rd,  5th,  8th,  1  ith.  14th,  i6th  and  19th  years  of  a  cycle 
of  1 9  years,  [b)  A  month  becomes  intercalary  at  an  interval  of  1 9  years  over  a  certain  period, 
and  afterwards  gives  way  generally  to  one  of  the  months  preceding  it,  but  sometimes,  though 
rarely,  to  the  following  one.  (c)  Out  of  the  seven  intercalary  months  of  a  cycle  one  or  two 
are  always  changed  in  the  ne.xt  succeeding  cycle,  so  that  after  a  number  of  cycles  the  whole  are 
replaced  by  others,  [d)  During  our  period  of  1600  years  the  months  Margasirsha,  Pausha,  and 
Magha  are  never  intercalary,  [e)  The  interval  between  years  where  a  suppression  of  the  month 
occurs  is  worth  noticing.  In  the  period  covered  by  our  Tables  the  first  suppressed  month  is  in  A.D.  404, 
and  the  intervals  are  thus:  19,65,  38,  19,  19,46,19,141,122,19,141,141,65,19,19,19,19,46, 
76,  46,  141,  141,  and  an  unfinished  period  of  78  years.  At  first  sight  there  seems  no  regularity, 
but  closer  examination  shews  that  the  periods  group  themselves  into  three  classes,  viz.,  (i.)  19, 
38,  76;  (ii.)  141;  and  (iii.)  122,65  a"<i  4^  years;  the  first  of  which  consists  of  19  or  its  multiples, 
the  second  is  a  constant,  and  the  third  is  the  difference  between  (ii.)  and  (i.)  or  between  141  and- 
a  multiple  of  19.  The  unfinished  period  up  to  1900  A.D.  being  78  years,  we  are  led  by  these 
peculiarities    to   suppose    that    there    will    be  no    suppressed    month  till  at  earliest  (122  years  =) 

1  It  is  difficult  to  define  the  exact  limit,  because  it  varies  with  different  Siddlidntas.  and  even  for  one  Siddluinta  it  is  not  always 
the  same.  It  is,  however,  generally  not  more  than  sis  ghatikus,  or  about  33  of  our  tithi-indices  (tj.  But  in  the  case  of  some 
Siddhdntas  as  corrected  with  a  bija  the  difference  may  amount  sometimes  to  as  much  as  20  ghatikfis.  or  113  of  our  tithi-indices.  It 
would  be  very  rare  to  find  any  difference  in  true  added  months;  but  in  the  case  of  suppres-sed  months  we  might  expect  some  divergence,  a 
month  suppressed  by  one  authority  not  being  the  same  as  that  suppressed  by  another,  or  there  being  no  suppression  at  all  by  the  latter 
in  some  cases.     Differences   in  mean  added  months  would  be  very  rare,  except  in  the  case  of  the  Brahma-SiddMnia,   (See  Arl.  i'i.J

Saka  1398  current,  Marg.is'irslia  is  suppressed  six  times,  and  I'ausha  18  times.  Xo  other  month 
is  suppressed. 

Bhaskaracharya  lays  down  -  that  Karttika,  Margasirsha  and  Pausha  only  arc  liable  to 
be  suppressed,  but  this  seems  applicable  only  to  the  Bralima-Siddhanta  of  which  Bhaskaracharya 
was  a  follower.  He  further  states,  "there  was  a  suppressed  month  in  the  Saka  year  974  expired, 
and  there  will  be  one  in  Saka  11 15,  1256  and  1378  all  expired",  and  this  also  seems  applicable 
to  the  Bralima-Siddhaiita  only.  By  the  Surya-Siddlianta  there  were  suppressed  months  in  all 
these  years  except  the  last  one,  and  there  was  an  additional  suppression  in  Saka   1180  expired. 

Ganesa  Daivaijfia,  the  famous  author  of  the  Gralialaghava  (A.D.  1520),  as  quoted  by  his 
grandson,  in  his  commentary  on  the  Siddhanta-Siromani,  says,  "By  the  Siirya-Siddlianta  there 
will  be  a  suppressed  month  in  Saka  1462,  1603,  1744,  1885,2026,2045,2148,2167,2232,2373, 
2392,  2514,  2533,  2655,  2674,  2796  and  2815,  and  by  the  Arya-Siddhanta^  there  will  be  one 
in  1481,  1763,  1904,  2129,  2186,  2251  (all  expired)."  The  first  four  by  Siirya  calculations  agree 
with  our  results. 

51.  By  the  piirninianta  scheme.  Notwithstanding  that  the  purnimanta  scheme  of  months 
is  and  was  in  use  in  Northern  India,  the  amanta  scheme  alone  is  recognized  in  the  matter  of  the 
nomenclature  and  intercalation  of  lunar  months  and  the  commencement  of  the  luni-solar  year. 
The  following  is  the  method  adopted — first,  the  ordinary  rule  of  naming  a  month  is  applied  to 
an  amanta  lunar  month,  and  then,  by  the  purnimanta  scheme,  the  dark  fortnight  of  it  receives 
the  name  of  the  following  month.  The  correspondence  of  amanta  and  purnimanta  fortnights 
for  a  year  is  shown  in  Table  II.,  Part  i.,  and  it  will  be  observed  that  the  bright  fortnights 
have  the  same  name  by  both  schemes  while  the  dark  fortnights  differ  by  a  month,  and  thus 
the  purnimanta  scheme  is  always  a  fortnight  in  advance  of  the  amanta  scheme. 

The  sankrantis  take  place  in  definite  amanta  lunar  months,  thus  the  Makara-sahkranti  invariably 
takes  place  in  amanta  Pausha,  and  in  no  other  month ;  but  when  it  takes  place  in  the  krishna- 
paksha  of  amanta  Pausha  it  falls  in  purnimanta  Magha,  because  that  fortnight  is  said  to 
belong  to  Magha  by  the  purnimanta  scheme.  If,  however,  it  takes  place  in  the  sukla  paksha, 
the  month  is  Pausha  by  both  schemes.  Thus  the  Makara-sankranti,  though  according  to  the 
amanta  scheme  it  can  only  fall  in  Pausha,  may  take  place  either  in  Pausha  or  Magha  by  the 
purnimanta  scheme;  and   so  with  the  rest. 

The  following  rules  govern  purnimanta  intercalations.  Months  are  intercalated  at  first 
as  if  there  were  no  purnimanta  scheme,  and  afterwards  the  dark  fortnight  preceding  the  intercalated 
month  receives,  as  usual,  the  name  of  the  month  to  which  the  following  natural  bright  fortnight 
belongs,  and  therefore  the  intercalated  month  also  receives  that  name.  Thus,  in  the  example  given 
above  {Art.  ^5),  intercalated  amanta  Vaisakha  (as  named  by  the  first  rule)  lies  between  natural 
amanta  Chaitra  and  natural  amanta  Vaisakha.  But  by  the  purnimanta  scheme  the  dark  half 
'of  natural  amanta  Chaitra  acquires  the  name  of  natural  Vai.sakha;  then  follow  the  two  fortnights 
of   adhika    Vai.sakha;    and    after    them    comes    the   bright    half   of   the  (nija)  natural  purnimanta

Vaisaklia.     Thus    it    liippens    that    half    of  natural    puniinianta  Vaisakha  comes  before,  and  half 
after,  the  intercalated  month.  ' 

Of  the  four  fortnights  thus  having  the  name  of  the  same  month  the  first  two  fortnights 
are  sometimes  called  the  "■First   Vaiiak/ia,"  and  the  last  two  the  "Second   Vaisaklia." 

It  will  be  seen  from  Table  II.,  Part  i.,  that  amanta  Phalguna  krishna  is  purnimanta  Chaitra 
krishna.  The  year,  however,  does  not  begin  then,  but  on  the  same  day  as  the  amanta  month, 
i.e.,    with  the  new  moon,  or  the  beginning  of  the  next  bright  fortnight. 

Having  discussed  the  lesser  divisions  of  time,  we  now  revert  to  the  Hindu  year.  And, 
first,  its  beginning. 

Years  and  Cycles. 

52.  The  Hindu  Nezv-year's  Day. — In  Indian  astronomical  works  the  year  is  considered 
to  begin,  if  luni-solar,  invariably  with  amanta  Chaitra  Sukla  ist,  — if  solar  with  the  Mesha 
saiikranti;  and  in  almost  all  works  mean  Mesha  sankranti  is  taken  for  convenience  of  calculations, 
very  few  works  adopting  the  apparent  or  true  one.  At  present  in  Bengal  and  the  Tamil 
country,  where  solar  reckoning  is  in  use,  the  year,  for  religious  and  astronomical  purposes,  com- 
mences with  the  apparent  Mesha-saiikranti,  and  the  civil  year  with  the  first  day  of  the  month 
Mesha,  as  determined  by  the  practice  of  the  country  (See  above  Art.  28).  But  since  mean  Mesha- 
saiikranti  is  taken  as  the  commencement  of  the  solar  year  in  astronomical  works,  it  is  only  reason- 
able to  suppose  that  the  year  actually  began  with  it  in  practice  in  earlier  times,  and  we  have 
to  consider  how  long  ago  the  practice  ceased. 

In  a  Karana  named  Bhasvati  (A.  D.  1099)  the  year  commences  with  apparent  Mesha 
saiikranti,  and  though  it  is  dangerous  to  theorize  from  one  work,  we  may  at  least  quote  it  as 
shewing  that  the  present  practice  was  known  as  early  as  A.  D.  i  lOO.  This  date  coinciding  fairly 
well  with  Sripati's  injunction  quoted  above  (Art.  ^y)  we  think  it  fair  to  assume  for  the  present 
that  the  practice  of  employing  the  mean  Mesha  sankranti  for  fi.xing  the  beginning  of  the  year 
ceased  about  the  same  time  as  the  practice  of  mean  intercalary  months. 

The  luni-solar  Chaitradi  ^  year  commences,  for  certain  religious  and  astrological  purposes, 
with  the  first  moment  of  the  first  tithi  of  Chaitra,  or  Chaitra  sukla  pratipada  and  this,  of  course, 
may  fall  at  any  time  of  the  day  or  night,  since  it  depends  on  the  moment  of  new  moon.  But 
for  the  religious  ceremonies  connected  with  the  beginning  of  a  samvatsara  (year),  the  sunrise 
of  the  day  on  which  Chaitra  sukla  pratipada  is  current  at  sunrise  is  taken  as  the  first  or  opening 
day  of  the  year.  When  this  tithi  is  current  at  sunrise  on  two  days,  as  sometimes  happens,  the 
first,  and  when  it  is  not  current  at  any  sunrise  {i.e.,  when  it  is  expunged)  then  the  day  on  which 
it  ends,  is  taken  as  the  opening  day.     For  astronomical  purpo.ses  the  learned  take  any  convenient 

1  Such  an  anomaly  with  regard  to  the  pftrpimfinta  scheme  could  not  occur  if  the  two  rules  were  applied,  one  that  "that 
purpimant!)  month  in  which  the  Mesha  sankrilnti  occurs  is  always  called  Chaitra,  and  so  on  in  succession,"  and  the  other  that "  that 
pAruim&nta  month  in  which  no  sankr&nti  occuis  is  called  an  intercalated  month."  The  rules  were,  I  believe,  in  use  in  the  sixth 
century  AD.  (Si'e  mij  remarh  Ind.  -Int.,  XX.,  p.  iO  f)  But  the  added  month  under  such  rules  would  never  agree  with  the  amfinta 
added  months.  There  would  he  from  14  to  17  months'  diderence  in  the  intercalated  months  between  the  two,  and  much  inconvcuicuce 
would  arise  thereby.  It  is  for  this  reason  probably  that  the  purpim&nta  scheme  is  not  recognised  in  naming  months,  and  that  pflr^i- 
manta  months  are  named  arbitrarily,  as  described  in  the  first  para,  of  Art.  51.  This  arbitrary  rule  was  certainly  in  use  in  the 
11th  century  A.D.     (See  Ind.  Ant.,  rol.   VI.,  p.  53,  where  the  Makara-saiikrSnti  is  said  to  have  taken  place  in  Xldgha.^ 

After  this  arbitrary  rule  of  naming  the  purnim&nta  months  once  came  into  general  use.  it  was  iuipossible  in  Northern  India 
to  continue  using  the  second,  or  Brahma-Siddhdnta,  rule  for  naming  the  months.  For  in  the  example  in  ,/r<.  45  above  the  intercalated 
month  would  by  that  rule  be  named  Chaitra,  but  if  its  preceding  fortnight  be  a  fortnight  of  VaisSkha  it  is  obvious  that  the  inter- 
calated month  cannot  be  named  Chaitra.     In  Southern  India  the  pi"actice  may  have  continued  in  use  a  little  longer.     [S.  B.  D.]

moment, — such  as  mean  sunrise,  noon,  sunset,  or  midnight,  but  generally  the  sunrise, — on  or 
before  Chaitra  sukla  pratipada,  as  their  starting-point.  '  Sometimes  the  beginning  of  the  mean 
Chaitra  sukla  pratipada  is  so  taken. 

When  Chaitra  is  intercalary  there  seems  to  be  a  difference  of  opinion  whether  the  year 
in  that  case  is  to  begin  with  the  intercalated  {adhika)  or  natural  [nijd)  Chaitra.  For  the  purposes 
of  our  Table  I.  (cols.  19  to  25)  we  have  taken  the  adhika  Chaitra  of  the  true  system  as  the  first 
month  of  the  year. 

But  the  year  does  not  begin  with  Chaitra  all  over  India.  In  Southern  India  and  especially 
in  Gujarat  the  years  of  the  Vikrama  era  commence  in  the  present  day  with  Karttika  sukla  pratipada. 
In  some  parts  of  Kathiavad  and  Gujarat  the  Vikrama  year  commences  with  Ashadha  sukla 
pratipada.  -  In  a  part  of  Ganjam  and  Orissa,  the  year  begins  on  Bhadrapada  sukla  1 2th.  {Sec  jmder 
Ohko  reckoning,  Art.  64.)  The  Amli  year  in  Orissa  begins  on  Bhadrapada  sukla  12th.  the 
Vilayati  year,  also  in  general  use  in  Orissa,  begins  with  the  Kanya  sahkranti ;  and  the  Fasli  year, 
which  is  luni-solar  in  Bengal,  commences  on  purnimanta  Asvina  kri.  ist  (viz.,  4  days  later  than 
the  Vilayati). 

In  the  South  Malayajam  country  (Travancore  and  Cochin),  and  in  Tinnevelly,  the  solar 
year  of  the  KoUam  era,  or  Kollam  andu,  begins  with  the  month  Chingam  (Siriiha),  and  in  the 
North  Malayajam  tract  it  begins  with  the  month  Kanni  (Kanya).  In  parts  of  the  Madras  Presidency 
the  Fasli  year  originally  commenced  on  the  ist  of  the  solar  month  Adi  (Karka),  but  by  Govern- 
ment order  about  A.D.  1800  it  was  made  to  begin  on  the  1 3th  of  July,  and  recently  it  was  altered 
again,  so  that  now  it  begins  on  ist  July.  In  parts  of  the  Bombay  Presidency  the  Fasli  year  begins 
when  the  sun  enters  the  nakshatra  Mrigasirsha,  which  takes  place  at  present  about  the  Sth  or  6th  o0une. 

Alberuni  mentions  (A.D.  1030)  a  year  commencing  with  Margasirsha  as  having  been  in 
use  in  Sindh,  Multan,  and  Kanouj,  as  well  as  at  Lahore  and  in  that  neighbourhood;  also  a 
year  commencing  with  Bhadrapada  in  the  vicinity  of  Kashmir.  '  In  the  MaliabJiarata  the  names 
of  the  months  are  given  in  some  places,  commencing  with  Margasirsha.  {Anusasana  pama  adhyayas 
106  and  locf).     In  the    Vcdaiiga  Jyotisha    the    year  commences    with    Magha  sukla  pratipada. 

53.  The  Sixty-year  cycle  of  Jupiter.  *  In  this  reckoning  the  years  are  not  known  by  numbers, 
but  are  named  in  succession  from  a  list  of  60  names,  often  known  as  the  "  Brihaspati  samvatsara 
chakra,"  "  the  wheel  or  cycle  of  the  years  of  Jupiter.  Each  of  these  years  is  called  a  "samvatsara." 
The  word  "  samvatsara  "  generally  means  a  year,  but  in  the  case  of  this  cycle  the  year  is  not 
equal  to  a  solar  year.  It  is  regulated  by  Jupiter's  mean  motion;  and  a  Jovian  year  is  the  period 
during    which    the  planet  Jupiter  enters  one   sign  of  the  zodiac  and  passes  completel)'  through  it

of  it  in  the  present  day.     1  am  told  that  at  Idar  in  Gujarat  the  Vikrama  samvat  begins  on  Ash&clha  krishpa  dritiyft.     [S.  B.  D.]

begin  the  year  with  the  month  Chaitra,  whilst  the  inhabilunts  of  Kaiiir.  which  is  conterminous  with  Kashmir,  begin  it  with  the

new  moon  of  MArgasirsha,  hut  that  the  people  of  MultAn  only  a  few  years  ago  had  given  up  this  system,  and  had  ado|)tcd  the  system 
of  the  people  of  Ka.shinir,  and  followed  their  example  in  beginning  the  year  with  the  new  moon  of  Chaitra."

with  reference  to  his  mean  motion.     The  cycle  commences  with  Prabhava.     See  Table  I.,  cols.  6,  7, 
and  Table  XII. 

54.  The  duration  of  a  Barhaspatya  samvatsara,  according  to  the  Surya-Siddhanta,  is  about 
361.026721  days,  that  is  about  4.232  days  less  than  a  solar  year.  If,  then,  a  samvatsara  begins 
exactly  with  the  solar  year  the  following  samvatsara  will  commence  4.232  days  before  the  end 
of  it.  So  that  in  each  successive  year  the  commencement  of  a  samvatsara  will  be  4.232 
days  in  advance,  and  a  time  will  of  course  come  when  two  samvatsaras  will  begin  during 
the  same  solar  year.  For  example,  by  the  Surya-Siddhanta  with  the  bija,  Prabhava  (No.  i)  was 
current  at  the  beginning  of  the  solar  year*Saka  1779.  Vibhava  (No.  2)  commenced  3.3  days 
after  the  beginning  of  that  year,  that  is  after  the  Mesha  sankranti;  and  Sukla  (No.  3)  began  361.03 
days  after  Vibhava,  that  is  364.3  days  after  the  beginning  of  the  year.  Thus  Vibhava  and  Sukla 
both  began  in  the  same  solar  year.  Now  as  Prabhava  was  current  at  the  beginning  of  Saka 
1779,  and  Sukla  was  current  at  the  beginning  of  6aka  1780,  Vibhava  was  expunged  in  the  regular 
method  followed  in  the  North.  Thus  the  rule  is  that  when  two  Barhaspatya  samvatsaras  begin 
during  one  solar  year  the  first  is  said  to  be  expunged,  or  to  have  become  kskaya;  and  it  is 
clear  that  when  a  samvatsara  begins  within  a  period  of  about  4.232  days  after  a  Mesha  sankranti 
it  will  be  expunged. 

By  the  Surya  Siddhanta  85^^  solar  years  are  equal  to  86|^^  Jovian  years.  So  that  one 
expunction  is  due  in  every  period  of  85^^  solar  years.  But  since  it  really  takes  place  according 
to  the  rule  explained  above,  the  interval  between  two  expunctions  is  sometimes  85  and  sometimes 
86  years. 

55.  Generally  speaking  the  samvatsara  which  is  current  at  the  beginning  of  a  year  is  in 
practice  coupled  with  all  the  days  of  that  year,  notwithstanding  that  another  samvatsara  may  have 
begun  during  the  course  of  the  year.  Indeed  if  there  were  no  such  practice  there  would  be 
no  occasion  for  an  expunction.  Epigraphical  and  other  instances,  however,  have  been  found  in 
which  the  actual  samvatsara  for  the  time  is  quoted  with  dates,  notwithstanding  that  another  sam- 
vatsara was  current  at  the  beginning  of  the  year.  ^ 

56.  Variations.  As  the  length  of  the  solar  year  and  year  of  Jupiter  differs  with  different 
Siddhantas  it  follows  that  the  expunction  of  samvatsaras  similarly  varies. 

57.  Further,  since  a  samvatsara  is  expunged  when  two  samvatsaras  begin  in  the  same 
year,  these  expunctions  will  differ  with  the  different  kinds  of  year.  Where  luni-solar  years  are 
in  use  it  is  only  natural  to  suppose  that  the  rule  will  be  made  applicable  to  that  kind  of  year, 
an  expunction  occurring  when  two  samvatsaras  begin  in  such  a  year;  and  there  is  evidence  to 
show  that  in  some  places  at  least,  such  was  actually  the  case  for  a  time.  Now  the  length  of  an 
ordinary  luni-solar  year  (354  days)  is  less  than  that  of  a  Jovian  year  (361  days),  and  therefore 
the  beginning  of  two  consecutive  samvatsaras  can  only  occur  in  those  luni-solar  years  in  which 
there  is  an  intercalary  month.  Again,  the  solar  year  sometimes  commences  with  the  mean 
Mesha-sankranti,  and  this  again  gives  rise  to  a  difference.  "' 

The  Jyotislia-tattva  rule  (given  below  Art.  spj  gives  the  samvatsara  current  at  the  time 
of  the  mean,  not  of  the  apparent,  Mesha-sankranti,  and  hence  all  expunctions  calculated  thereby  must 
be  held  to  refer  to  the  solar  year  only  when  it  is  taken  to  commence  with  the  mean  Mesha- 
sankranti.  '     It  is  important  that  this  should  be  remembered.

a.  By  the  Siirya-Siddhanta.  '  Multiply  the  expired  Kali  year  by  211.  Subtract  108  from 
the  product.  Divide  the  result  by  18000.  To  the  quotient,  excluding  fractions,  add  the  numeral 
of  the  expired  Kali  year  plus  27.  Divide  the  sum  by  60.  The  remainder,  counting  from  Prabhava 
as  I,  is  the  samvatsara  current  at  the  beginning  of  the  given  solar  year,  that  is  at  its  apparent 
Mesha-sankranti.  Subtract  from  18000  the  remainder  previously  left  after  dividing  by  18000. 
Multiply  the  result  by  361,  and  divide  the  product  by  18000.  Calculate  for  days,  ghatikas,  and 
palas.  Add  1 5  palas  to  the  result.  The  result  is  then  the  number  of  days,  etc.,  elapsed  between 
the  apparent  Mesha-sahkranti  and  the  end  of  the  samvatsara  current  thereon.  By  this  process  can  be 
found  the  samvatsara  current  on  any  date. 

Example  I. — Wanted  the  samvatsara  current  at  the  beginning  of  Saka  233  expired  and  the  date  on 
which  it  ended.  Saka  233  expired  =  (Table  I.)  Kali  3412  expired,  "'-".'j.'^^'"  —  39H55^  39  +  3412+27 
=  3478.  ?i^  =:  57^!.  The  remainder  is  58;  and  wehaveitthat  No.  58  Raktakshini^Zizi^/^  AY/.^  was  the 
samvatsara  current  at  the  beginning  (apparent  Mesha-safikranti)  of  the  given  year.  Again ; 
18000 — 17824  =  176.  '""x^si  _  3  d.  31  gh.  47.2  p.  Adding  15  pa.  we  have  3  d.  32  gh.  2.2  pa. 
This  shews  that  Raktakshin  will  end  and  Krodhana  (No.  59)  begin  3  d.  32  gh.  2.2  pa.  after  the 
apparent  Meska  satikranti.  This  last,  by  the  Surya  Siddhanta,  occurred  on  17th  March,  A.D.  31 1, 
at  27  gh.  23  pa.  [see  Table  /.,  col.  ij,  and  the  Table  in  Art.  p6),  and  therefore  Krodhana  began 
on  the  20th  March  at  59  gh.  25.2  pa.,  or  34.8  palas  before  mean  sunrise  on  2 1st  March.  We  also  know 
that  since  Krodhana  commences  within  four  days  after  Mesha  it  will  he  expunged  (Art.  j;.faboz'e.) 

b.  By  the  Arya  Siddhanta.  Multiply  the  expired  Kali  year  by  22.  Subtract  1 1  from  the  product. 
Divide  the  result  by  1875.  To  the  quotient  excluding  fractions  add  the  expired  Kali  year  +  27. 
Divide  the  sum  by  60.  The  remainder,  counted  from  Prabhava  as  i,  is  the  samvatsara  current 
at  the  beginning  of  the  given  solar  year.  Subtract  from  1875  the  remainder  previously  left  after 
dividing  by  1875.  Multiply  the  result  by  361.  Divide  the  product  by  1875.  Add  i  gh. 
45  pa.  to  the  quotient.  The  result  gives  the  number  of  days,  etc.,  that  have  elapsed  between  the 
apparent  Mesha-sankranti  and  the  end  of  the  samvatsara  current  thereon. 

Example  2.— Required  the  samvatsara  current  at  the  beginning  of  Saka  230  expired,  and 
the  time  when  it  ended. 

Saka  230  e.xpired  =  KaH  3409  expired.  ill''^i??zli  —  391!??.  39  +  3409  +  271=  3475,  which, 
divided  by  60,  gives  the  remainder  55.  Then  No.  55  Durmati  (Table  XII.)  was  current  at  the 
beginning  of  the  given  year.     Again;    1875— 1862  —  13.    ^^' =  2  d.  30  gh.  10.56  pa.  Adding  i  gh. 

1  By  all  these  rules  the  results  will  be  correct  witliin  two  ghatikfts  where  the  nioiucut  ol'  the  Mcshn-saukninti  iiccording 
to  the  authority  used  is  kuown. 

'  The  rule  for  the  present  Vamhtha,  the  SdkaUja  Brahma,  the  Romaka,  and  the  Soma  Sidd/nUlas  is  eiactly  the  same.  That 
by  the  original  Stlri/a-Sidithdnla  is  also  similar,  but  in  that  case  the  result  will  be  incorrect  by  about  2  ghatik&s  (48  minutes).  For 
all  these  authorities  take  the  time  of  the  Mesha-sankrAnti  by  the  present  Silrya-Sidd/nUla  or  by  the  Jri/a-Siddlidnta,  whichever  may 
be  available.  The  moment  of  the  Mesha-sankrlntri  according  to  the  Silrya-Siddtninla  is  given  in  our  Tabic  I.  only  for  the  years  A.D. 
1100  to  1900.  The  same  moment  for  all  years  between  A.D.  300  and  1100  can  be  found  by  the  Table  in  Art.  96.  If  the  Jrya- 
Siddhanta  saiikrHnti  is  used  for  years  A.D.  300  to  1100  the  result  will  never  be  incorrect  by  more  than  2  ghatikfls  46  jmlas  (1  hour 
and  6  minutes).     The  Tabic  should  be  referred  to. 


THE  HINDU  CALENDAR.  35 

45  pa.,  we  get  2d.  31  gh.  55.5693.  Add  this  to  the  moment  of  the  Mesha  sankranti  as  given  in  Table  I., 
cols.  13—16,  viz.,  i6th  March,  308  A.D.,  Tuesday,  at  41  gh.  40  p.,  and  we  have  19th  March, 
Friday,  13  gh.  35.56  p.  after  mean  sunrise  as  the  moment  when  Durmati  ends  and  Dundubhi 
begins.  Here  again,  since  Dundubhi  commences  within  four  days  of  the  Mesha  sankranti,  it 
will  be  expunged. 

c.  By  the  Surya-Siddhanta  with  the  bija  (to  be  used  for  years  after  about  1500  A.D.). 
Multiply  the  expired  Kali  year  by  117.  Subtract  60  from  the  product.  Divide  the  result  by 
icx)00.  To  the  figures  of  the  quotient,  excluding  fractions,  add  the  number  of  the  expired  Kali 
year  plus  27.  Divide  the  sum  by  60.  And  the  remainder,  counted  from  Prabhava  as  i,  is  the 
samvatsara  current  at  the  beginning  of  tlie  given  solar  year.  Subtract  from  loooothe  remainder 
left  after  the  previous  division  by  loooo.  Multiply  the  difference  by  361,  and  divide  the  product 
by  1 0000.  Add  1 5  pa.  The  result  is  the  number  of  days,  etc.,  that  have  elapsed  between  the  apparent 
Mesha  sankranti  and  the  end  of  the  samvatsara  current  thereon.  ' 

Example. — Required  the  samvatsara  current  at  the  beginning  of  Saka  1436  expired,  and 
the  moment  when  it  ends.  Saka  1436  expired  =:  Kali  4615  expired  (Table  I.),  lii^iilli::^  —  53^- 
M-H615+27  _  -gi5  -pj^g  remainder  1 5  shews  that  Vrisha  was  current  at  the  Mesha-sankranti. 
(10000-9896)  361  _|_  jj  p. —  3  d.  47  gh.  25.8  p.  +  1 5  p.  =  3  d.  47  gh.  40.8  p.  Table  I.  gives  the  Mesha- 
sankranti  as  March  27th,  44  gh.  25  p.,  Monday.  27  d.  44  gh.  25  p.  +  3  d.  47  gh.  40.8  p.  =  31  d. 
32  gh.  5.8  p.;  and  this  means  that  Vrisha  ended  at  32  gh.  5.8  p.  after  mean  sunrise  at  Ujjain 
on  Friday,  31st  March.  At  that  moment  Chitrabhanu  begins,  and  since  it  began  within  four  days 
of  the  Mesha-saiikranti.  it  is  expunged. 

d.  Brihatsamhita  and  Jyotishatath'a  Rules.  The  rules  given  in  the  Brihatsamhita  and 
the  Jyotishatattoa  seem  to  be  much  in  use,  and  therefore  we  give  them  here.  'Y\\s.  Jyotishatattva 
rule  is  the  same  as  that  for  the  Arya-Siddhanta  given  above,  except  that  it  yields  the  year  current 
at  the  time  of  mean  Mesha-sankranti,  and  that  it  is  adapted  to  Saka  years.  The  latter  difference 
is  merely  nominal  of  course,  as  the  moment  of  the  beginning  of  a  samvatsara  is  evidently 
the    same  by  both.  -     We  have  slightly  modified  the  rules,  but  in  words  only  and  not  in  sense. 

The  Jyotishatattva  rule  is  this.  Multiply  the  current  Saka  year  by  22.  Add  4291.  Divide 
the  sum  by  1875.  To  the  quotient  excluding  fractions  add  the  number  of  the  current  Saka  year.  Divide 
the  sum  by  60.  The  remainder,  counted  from  Prabhava  as  i,  is  the  samvatsara  current  at  the 
beginning  of  the  given  year.  Subtract  the  remainder  left  after  previously  dividing  by  1875  from 
1875.  Multiply  the  result  by  361.  And  divide  the  product  by  1875.  The  result  gives  the 
number  of  days  by  which,  according  to  the  Arya-Siddhanta,  the  samvatsara  ends  after  mean  Mesha- 
sankranti.  The  mean  ^  Mesha-sankranti  will  be  obtained  by  adding  2d.  8  gh.  51  pa.  1 5  vipa.  to 
the  time  given  in  Table  I.,  cols.   13  to   18. 

Work  out  by  this  rule  the  example  given  above  under  the  Arya-Siddhanta  rule,  and  the 
result  will  be  found  to  be  the  same  by  both. 

The  Brihatsamhita  rule.  Multiply  the  expired  Saka  year  by  44.  Add  8589.  Divide 
the  sum  by  3750.  To  the  quotient,  excluding  fractions,  add  the  number  of  the  expired  Saka  year 

1  In    these   three   rules  the  apparent  Mesha-sankr&nti  is  taken.       If  we  omit  the  subtraction  of  108,  11,  and  60,  and  do  not 
add  15  p.,  1  gh.  45  p.,  and  15  p.  respectively,  the  result  will  be  correct  with  respect  to  the  mean  Mesha-sankranli. 

2  I  have  not  seen  the  Jt/oiiskatattm  (or  "Jyotishtava"  as  Warren  calls  it,  but  which  seems  to  be  a  mistake),  but  I  find  the 
rule  in  the  Rainamdld  ofSripati  (A.D.  1039).     It  must  be  as  old  as  that  by  the  Arya-Siddhdnta,  since  both  are  the  same.     [S.  B.  D.] 

8    If  we  add  4280  instead  of  4291,  and  add  1  gh.  45  pa.  to  the  final  result,  the  time  so  arrived  at  will  be  the  period  elapsed  since 
apparent  Mesha-sankranti.  Those  who  interpret  the  J yotiahaiallm  rule  in  any  different  way  have  failed  to  grasp  its  proper  meaning    [S.  B.  D.]

plus  I.  Divide  the  sum  by  60.  The  remainder,  counted  from  Prabhava  as  i,  is  the  samvatsara  current 
at  thebeginnini^  of  the  year.  Subtract  from  3750  the  remainder  obtained  after  the  previous  division  b\' 
3750.  Multiply  the  result  by  361,  and  divide  the  product  by  3750.  This  gives  the  number  of 
days  by  which  the  samvatsara  current  at  the  beginning  of  the  year  will  end  after  the  Mesha 
sankranti.  '

If  we  take  the  years  to  commence  with  the  apparent  Mesha-sahkranti  the  sam- 
vatsaras expunged  by  Siirya  Siddliania  calculation  will  be  found  in  Table  I.,  col.  7 ;  and 
those  by  the  Arya  Siddhanta  can  be  found  by  the  rule  for  that  Siddhtmta  given  in 
Art.  sg  above. 

61.  The  years  of  Jupiter's  cycle  are  not  mentioned  in  very  early  inscriptions.  They  are 
mentioned  in  the  Siirya-Siddhanta.  Dr.  J.  Burgess  states  that  he  has  reason  to  think  that  they 
were  first  introduced  about  A.D.  349,  and  that  they  were  certainly  in  use  in  A.D.  530.  We 
have  therefore  given  them  throughout  in  Table  I. 

62.  The  southern  (luni-solar)  sixty-year  cycle.  The  sixty-year  cycle  is  at  present  in  daily 
use  in  Southern  India  (south  of  the  Narmada),  but  there  the  samvatsaras  are  made  to  correspond 
with  the  luni-solar  year  as  well  as  the  .solar ;  and  we  therefore  term  it  the  luni-solar  60-year  cycle 
in  contradistinction  to  the  more  .scientific  Barhaspatya  cycle  of  the  North. 

1  It  is  not  stated  what  Me..sha-saukruHti  is  meant,  whether  mean  or  apparcut.  The  rule  is  here  given  as  giMurallj 
interpreted  by  writers  both  Indian  and  Piuropean,  but  in  this  form  its  origin  eannot  be  explained.  I  am  strongly  inclined  to  think 
that  Varahamihira,  the  author  of  the  Bnlialsamhitu,  meant  the  rule  to  run  thus:  Multijily  the  eurrcut  Saka  year  by  44  Add  8582 
(or  8581  or  8583).  Divide  the  sum  by  3750.  To  the  integei-s  of  the  quotient  add  the  given  eurrent  Saka  year  ;  (and  the  rest  aa  above). 
Tlie  result  ie  for  the  mean  Mesha-saukranti."  In  this  fonn  it  is  the  same  as  the  Arya-Siddhdnia  or  the  Jyotii/iafallva  rule,  and 
can  be  easily  explained.     (S.  fi.  D.) 

2  In  this  Table  the  Bnhalaainliild  rule  is  worked  as  I  interpret  it.  But  as  interpreted  by  othirs  the  ixpuuetions  will 
differ,  the  differences  being  in  .Saka  (current)  231,  the  56th;  998,  the  52nd;  1889,  the  37th. 

By  the  Surya  Siddlidnta  the  years  marked  with  an  asterisk  in  the  Saka  column  of  this  Table  differ  from  those  given  in 
Table  I.,  col.  7,  being  in  each  case  one  earlier;  the  rest  arc  the  same.     (S.  B.  D.) 


THE  HINDU  CALENDAR.  37 

There  is  evidence  '  to  show  that  the  cycle  of  Jupiter  was  in  use  in  Southern  India  before 
Saka  828  (A.D.  905-6);  but  from  that  year,  according  to  the  Arya  Siddlianta,  or  from  Saka 
831  (A.D.  908-9)  according  to  the  .SVJr;'«-AV^d%(5«/rt,  the  expunction  of  the  samvatsaras  was  altogether 
neglected,  with  the  result  that  the  60-year  cycle  in  the  south  became  luni-solar  from  that  year. 
At  present  the  northern  samvatsara  has  advanced  by  12  on  the  southern!  There  is  an  easy 
rule  for  finding  the  samvatsara  according  to  the  luni-solar  cycle,  viz.,  add  1 1  to  the  current 
Saka  year,  and  divide  by  60;  the  remainder  is  the  corresponding  luni-solar  cycle  year.  It  must 
not  be  forgotten  that  the  samvatsaras  of  Jupiter's  and  the  southern  cycle,  are  always  to  betaken 
as  current  years,  not  expired. 

63.  The  twelve-year  cycle  of  Jupiter.  There  is  another  cycle  of  Jupiter  consisting  of 
twelve  samvatsaras  named  after  the  lunar  months.  It  is  of  two  kinds.  In  one,  the  samvatsara  begins 
with  the  heliacal  rising  -  of  Jupiter  and  consists  of  about  400  solar  days,  one  samvatsara  being 
expunged  every  12  years  or  so.'  In  the  other,  which  we  have  named  the  "twelve-year  cycle 
of  Jupiter  of  the  mean-sign  system",  the  years  are  similar  in  length  to  those  of  the  sixty-year 
cycle  of  Jupiter  just  described,  and  begin  at  the  same  moment.  Both  kinds,  though  chiefly  the 
former,  were  in  use  in  early  times,  and  the  latter  is  often  employed  in  modern  dates,  especially  in 
those  of  the  KoUam  era.  The  samvatsaras  of  this  heliacal  rising  system  can  only  be  found  by  direct 
calculations  according  to  some  Sidd/ianta.  The  correspondence  of  the  samvatsaras  of  the  mean-sign 
system  with  those  of  the  sixty-year  cycle  are  given  in  Table  XII.     They  proceed  regularly. 

64.  T/ie  Graha-parivritti  and  Ohko  cycles.  There  are  two  other  cycles,  but  they  are  limited 
to  small  tracts  of  country  and  would  perhaps  be  better  considered  as  eras.  We  however  give 
them  here. 

The  southern  inhabitants  of  the  peninsula  of  India  (chiefly  of  the  Madura  district)  use  a 
cycle  of  90  solar  years  which  is  called  the  Graha-parivritti.  Warren  has  described  the  cycle, 
deriving  his  information  from  the  celebrated  Portuguese  missionary  Beschi,  who  lived  for  over 
forty  years  in  Madura.  The  cycle  consists  of  90  solar  years,  the  lengtli  of  one  year  being  365  d. 
15  gh.  31  pa.  30  vi.,  and  the  year  commences  with  Mesha.  Warren  was  informed  by  native 
astronomers  at  Madras  that  the  cycle  consisted  of  the  sum  in  days  of  i  revolution  of  the  sun, 
15  of  Mars,  22  of  Mercury,  il  of  Jupiter,  5  of  Venus  and  29  of  Saturn,  .though  this  appears 
to  us  quite  meaningless.  The  length  of  this  year  is  that  ascertained  by  using  the  original 
Sitrya-Siddhanta ;  but  from  the  method  given  by  Warren  for  finding  the  beginning  of  the  years 
of  this  cycle  it  appears  that  astronomers  have  tried  to  keep  it  as  nearly  as  possible  in  agreement 
with  calculations  by  the  Arya-Siddlianta,  and  in  fact  the  year  may  be  said  to  belong  to  the 
Arya-Siddhanta.  The  cycle  commenced  with  Kali  3079  current  (B.  C.  24)  and  its  epoch,  i.e.,  the 
Graha-parivritti  year  o  current*  is  Kali    3078  current  (B.C.  25).

-  The  heliacal  rising  of  a  superior  planet  is  its  first  vuible  rising  after  its  conjnnctions  with  the  sun,  i.e ,  when  it  is  at  a 
sufficient  distance  from  the  sun  to  be  first  sefn  on  the  horizon  at  its  rising  in  the  morning  before  sunrise,  or,  in  the  case  of  an 
inferior  planet  (Mercury  or  Venus),  at  its  setting  in  the  evening  after  sunset.  For  Jupiter  to  be  visible  the  sun  must  be  about  11° 
below  the  horizon.     [R.  S.]

■•  In  practice  of  course  the  word  "current"  cannot  be  applied  to  the  year  0,  but  it  is  applied  here  (o  distinguish  it  from  the  year 
0  complete  or  expired,  which  means  year  1  cuiTent.  We  use  the  word  "epoch"  to  mean  the  year  0  cun-ent.  The  epoch  of  an  era 
given  in  a  year  of  another  era  is  useful  for  turning  years  of  one  into  years  of  another  era.  Thus,  by  adding  3078  (thenimiber  of  the 
Kali  year  coiTesponding  to  the  Gralia-pari\Titti  cycle  epoch)  to  a  Graha-parivritti  year,  we  can  get  the  equivalent  Kali  year;  and  by 
subtracting  the  same  from  a  Kali  year  we  get  the  corresponding  Graha-parivritti  year. 


38  THE  INDIAN  CALENDAR. 

To  find  the  year  of  the  Graha-parivritti  cycle,  add  72  to  the  current  Kali-year,  \  i  to  the 
current  Saka  year,  or  24  or  23  to  the  A.D.  year,  viz.,  24  from  Mesha  to  December  31st, 
and  23  from  January  1st  to  Mesha;  divide  by  90  and  the  remainder  is  the  current  year 
of  the  cycle. 

The  Ohko '  cycle  of  59  luni-solar  years  is  in  use  in  part  of  the  Ganjam  district  of 
the  Madras  Presidency.  Its  months  are  purnimanta,  but  it  begins  the  year  on  the  12th  of 
Bhadrapada-suddha,"  calling  that  day  the  12th  not  the  1st.  In  other  words,  the  year  changes  its 
numerical  designation  every  12th  day  of  Bhadrapada-suddha.  It  is  impossible  as  yet  to  say 
decidedly  when  the  Onko  reckoning  commenced.  Some  records  in  the  temple  of  Jagannatha 
at  Purl  (perfectly  valueless  from  an  historical  point  of  view)  show  that  it  commenced  with  the 
reign  of  Subhanideva  in  319  A.D.,  but  the  absurdity  of  this  is  proved  by  the  chronicler's 
statement  that  the  great  Mughal  invasion  took  place  in  327  A.D.  in  the  reign  of  that  king's 
successor. '  Some  say  that  the  reckoning  commenced  with  the  reign  of  Chodaganga  or 
Chorgahga,  the  founder  of  the  Gangavarhsa,  whose  date  is  assigned  usually  to  1 131-32 
A.D.,  while  Sutton  in  his  History  of  Orissa  states  that  it  was  introduced  in  1580  A.D.  In 
the  zamindari  tracts  of  Parlakimedi,  Peddakimedi  and  Chinnakimedi  the  Oiiko  Calendar  is 
followed,  but  the  people  there  also  observe  each  a  special  style,  only  differing  from  the  parent 
style  and  from  one  another  in  that  they  name  their  years  after  their  own  zamindars.  A  singular 
feature  common  to  all  these  four  kinds  of  regnal  years  is  that,  in  their  notation,  the  years  whose 
nunjeral  is  6,  or  whose  numerals  end  with  6  or  o  (except  10),  are  dropped.*  For  instance,  the 
years  succeeding  the  5th  and  19th  Ohkos  of  a  prince  or  zamindar  are  called  the  7th  and  21st  Onkos 
respectively.  It  is  difficult  to  account  for  this  mode  of  reckoning ;  it  may  be,  as  the  people 
themselves  allege,  that  these  numerals  are  avoided  because,  according  to  their  traditions  and  irt^/r^j, 
they  forebode  evil,  or  it  may  possibly  be,  as  some  might  be  inclined  to  suppose,  that  the  system 
emanated  from  a  desire  to  exaggerate  the  length  of  each  reign.  There  is  also  another  unique 
convention  according  to  which  the  Ohko  years  are  not  counted  above  59,  but  the  years  succeed- 
ing 59  begin  with  a  second  series,  thus  "second  i  ",  "  second  2",  and  so  on.  It  is  also  important 
to  note  that  when  a  prince  dies  in  the  middle  of  an  Ohko  year,  his  successor's  ist  Ohko  which 
commences  on  his  accession  to  the  throne,  does  not  run  its  full  term  of  a  year,  but  ends  on  the 
nth  day  of  Bhadrapada-suddha  following;  consequently  the  last  regnal  year  of  the  one  and  the 
first  of  the  other  together  occupy  only  one  year,  and  one  year  is  dropped  in  effect.  To  find, 
therefore,  the  English  equivalent  of  a  given  Ohko  year,  it  will  be  necessary  first  to  ascertain  the 
style  to  which  it  relates,  i.e.,  whether  it  is  a  Jagannatha  Ohko  or  a  Parlakimedi  Ohko,  and  so  on  ; 
and  secondly  to  value  the  given  year  by  excluding  the  years  dropped  (namely,  the  ist— possibly,  the 
6th,  1 6th,  20th,  26th,  30th,  36th,  40th,  46th,  50th,  56th).  There  are  lists  of  Orissa  princes 
available,    but  up  to  1797   A.D.  they  would  appear  to  be  perfectly  inauthentic.  '■>     The  list  from

-     On  the  11th  according  to  some,  but  all  the  evidence  tends  to  shew  that  the  year  begins  on  the  12th. 

3  The  real  date  of  the  Muhammndan  invasion  seems  to  be  1568  A.D.  (J.  A.  S.  B.  for  1883,  LII.,  p.  233,  no/;).  The  invasion 
alluded  to  is  evidently  that  of  the  "  Yavanas",  but  as  to  these  dates  these  temple  chronicles  must  never  be  believed.     [R.  S.] 

<  Some  say  that  the  first  year  is  also  dropped,  similarly;  but  this  appeai-s  to  be  the  result  of  a  misunderstanding,  this 
year  being  dropped  only  to  fit  in  with  the  system  described  lower  down  in  this  article.  Mr.  J.  Beames  states  that  "the  first  two 
years  and  every  year  that  has  a  6  or  a  0  in  it  are  omitted",  so  that  the  87th  Oiiko  of  the  reign  of  Kamaehandra  is  really  his  28th 
year,  since  the  years  1,  2,  6,  10,  16,  20,  26,  30  and  86  are  omitted.  (J.  A.  S.  B.  1883,  LII.,  p.  234,  note.  He  appears  to  have 
been  misled  about  the  first  two  years.

PART    11. 
THE    VARIOUS    ERAS. 

65.  General  remarks.  Different  eras  have,  from  remote  antiquity,  been  in  use  in  different 
parts  of  India,  having  their  years  luni-solar  or  solar,  commencing  according  to  varying  practice  with 
a  given  month  or  day;  and  in  the  case  of  luni-solar  years,  having  the  months  calculated  variously 
according  to  the  amanta  or  purnimanta  system  of  pakshas.  (Art.  12  above).  The  origin  of 
some  eras  is  well  known,  but  that  of  others  has  fallen  into  obscurity.  It  should  never  be  forgotten, 
as  explaining  at  once  the  differences  of  practice  we  observe,  that  when  considering  "  Indian " 
science  we  are  considering  the  science  of  a  number  of  different  tribes  or  nationalities,  not  of 
one  empire  or  of  the  inhabitants  generally  of  one  continent. 

66.  If  a  number  of  persons  belonging  to  one  of  these  nationalities,  who  have  been  in 
the  habit  for  many  years  of  using  a  certain  era  with  all  its  peculiarities,  leave  their  original 
country  and  settle  in  another,  it  is  natural  that  they  should  continue  to  use  their  own  era,  not- 
withstanding that  another  era  may  be  in  use  in  the  country  of  their  adoption ;  or  perhaps,  while 
adopting  the  new  era,  that  they  should  apply  to  it  the  peculiarities  of  their  own.  And  vice  versa 
it  is  only  natural  that  the  inhabitants  of  the  country  adopted  should,  when  considering  the 
peculiarities  of  the  imported  era,  treat  it  from  their  own  stand-point. 

6"].  And  thus  we  actually  find  in  the  panchaiigs  of  some  provinces  a  number  of  other 
eras  embodied,  side  by  side  with  the  era  in  ordinary  use  there,  while  the  calendar-makers  have 
treated  them  by  mistake  in  the  same  or  nearly  the  same  manner  as  that  of  their  own  reckoning. 
For  instance,  there  are  extant  solar  panchangs  of  the  Tamil  country  in  which  the  year  of  the 
Vikrama  era  is  represented  as  a  solar  Meshadi  year.  And  so  again  Saka  years  are  solar  in 
Bengal  and  in  the  Tamil  country,  and  luni-solar  in  other  parts  of  the  country.  So  also  we 
sometimes  find  that  the  framers  of  important  documents  have  mentioned  therein  the  years  of 
several  eras,  but  have  made  mistakes  regarding  them.  In  such  a  case  we  might  depend  on  the 
dates  in  the  document  if  we  knew  exactly  the  nationality  of  the  authors,  but  very  often  this 
cannot  be  discovered,  and  then  it  is  obviously  unsafe  to  rely  on  it  in  any  sense  as  a  guide.  This 
point  should  never  be  lost  sight  of 

68.  Another  point  to  be  always  borne  in  mind  is  that,  for  the  sake  of  convenience  in 
calculation  a  year  of  an  era  is  sometimes  treated  differently  by  different  authors  in  the  same 
province,  or   indeed  even  by  the  same  author.     Thus,  Ganesa  Daivajna  makes  Saka  years  begin 


40  THE  INDIAN  CALENDAR. 

with    Chaitra  sukla  pratipada  in  his  Grahalaghava  (A.D.    1520),  but  with  mean  Mesha  saiikranti 
in  his  Tithichintamani  (A.D.   1525.) 

69.  It  is  evident  therefore  that  a  certain  kind  of  year,  e.g.,  the  solar  or  luni-solar  year, 
or  a  certain  opening  month  or  day,  or  a  certain  arrangement  of  months  and  fortnights  and  the 
like,  cannot  be  strictly  defined  as  belonging  exclusively  to  a  particular  era  or  to  a  particular  part 
of  India.  We  can  distinctly  affirm  that  the  eras  whose  luni-solar  years  are  Chaitradi  {i.e.,  begin- 
ning with  Chaitra  sukla  pratipada)  are  always  Meshadi  (beginning  with  the  Mesha  sankranti) 
in  their  corresponding  solar  reckoning,  but  beyond  this  it  is  unsafe  to  go. 

70.  Current  and  expired  years.  It  is,  we  believe,  now  generally  known  what  an  "  expired  "  or 
"current"  year  is,  but  for  the  benefit  of  the  uninitiated  we  think  it  desirable  to  explain  the  matter  fully. 
Thus;  the  same  Saka  year  (A.D.  1894)  which  is  numbered  18 17  z'«/-/'rtwrt««,  or  astronomically  current, 
in  the  paiichangs  of  the  Tamil  countries  of  the  Madras  Presidency,  is  numbered  1 8  i6_i,'-rt/a  ("  expired") 
in  other  parts  of  India.  This  is  not  so  unreasonable  as  Europeans  may  imagine,  for  they  themselves 
talk  of  the  third  furlong  after  the  fourth  mile  on  a  road  as  "four  miles  three  furlongs"  which 
means  three  furlongs  after  the  expiry  of  the  fourth  mile,  and  the  same  in  the  matter  of  a  person's  age  ; 
and  so  September,  A.D.  1894,  (Saka  1817  current)  would  be  styled  in  India  "  Saka  18 16  expired,  Sep- 
tember", equivalent  to  "September  after  the  end  of  Saka  1816"  or  "after  the  end  of  1893  A.D". 
Moreover,  Indian  reckoning  is  based  on  careful  calculations  of  astronomical  phenomena,  and 
to  calculate  the  planetary  conditions  of  September,  1894,  it  is  necessary  first  to  take  the  planftary 
conditions  of  the  end  of  1893,  and  then  add  to  them  the  data  for  the  following  nine  months. 
That  is,  the  end  of  1893  is  the  basis  of  calculation.  It  is  always  necessary  to  bear  this  in  mind  because 
often  the  word  gata  is  omitted  in  practice,  and  it  is  therefore  doubtful  whether  the  real  year  in 
which  an  inscription  was  written  was  the  one  mentioned  therein,  or  that  number  decreased  by  one.  ' 

In  this  work  we  have  given  the  corresponding  years  of  the  Kali  and  Saka  eras  actually 
current,  and  not  the  expired  years.  This  is  the  case  with  all  eras,  including  the  year  of  the 
Vikravia  ^  era  at  present  in  use  in  Northern  India. 

71.  Description  of  the  several  eras.  In  Table  II.,  Part  iii.,  below  we  give  several  eras, 
chiefly  those  whose  epoch  is  known  or  can  be  fixed  with  certainty,  and  we  now  proceed  to 
describe  them  in  detail. 

Tlie  Kali-Yiiga. — The  moment  of  its  commencement  has  been  already  given  {Art.  16 
above').     Its    years    are    both  Chaitradi    (luni-solar)  and  Meshadi  (solar.)    It  is  used  both  in  astro- 

1  Sec  'Calculations  of  Hindu  datf-i',  by  Dr.  Fleet,  in  the  hid.  Ant.,  vols.  XFl.  to  XIX.;  and  my  notes  on  the  date  of  a 
Jain  Purdiia  in  Dr.  Bhandilrkar's  "Report  on  the  search  for  Sankrit  manuscript*"  for  1883 — 1884  A.  D.,  p.p.  429—30 
§$  36,  37.     [S.  B.  D.] 

'-  The  Vikrama  era  is  never  used  by  Indian  astronomers.  Out  of  160  Vikrama  dates  examined  by  Dr.  Kielhorn  (/«</.  Ant., 
XIX.),  there  are  only  sis  which  have  to  be  taken  as  current  years.  Is  it  not,  however,  possible  that  all  Viki-ama  years  are  really  cur- 
rent years,  but  tliat  sometimes  in  writings  and  inscriptions  the  authoi-s  have  made  them  doubly  current  in  consequence  of  thinking 
them  erroneously  to  be  expired  years.  There  is  an  instance  of  a  Saka  year  made  twice  current  in  an  inscription  jiublished  in  the 
Ind.  Ant.,  (vol.  XX  ,  p  191),  The  year  was  already  1155  current,  but  the  number  given  by  the  writer  of  the  inscription  is  1156, 
as  if  1155  had  been  the  expired  year. 

As  a  matter  of  fact  I  do  not  think  that  it  is  positively  known  whether  the  years  of  the  Christian  era  arc  themselves  really 
expired  or  current  years.  Warren,  the  author  of  the  Kiilasaiiknlita  was  not  certain.  He  calls  the  year  corresponding  to  the  Kali 
year  8101  expired  "A.D.  0  complete"  (p  302)  or  "1  current"  (p.  294).  Thus,  by  his  view,  the  Christian  year  corresponding  to 
the  Kali  year  3102  expired  would  be  A.D.  1  cumplctc  or  A.D.  2  current.  But  generally  European  scholars  fu  .\.  1)  1  current 
as  corresponding  to  Kali  3102  expired.  The  current  and  expired  years  undoubtedly  give  rise  to  confusion.  The  years  of  the  astionoraical 
eras,  the  Kali  and  Saka  for  instance,  may,  unless  the  contrary  is  proved,  be  assuraeJ  to  be  expired  yeai's,  and  those  of  the  non- 
astronomical  eras,  such  as  the  Vikrama,  Gu])la,  and  many  others,  may  be  taken  as  current  ones.  (See,  hojoever.  Note  3,  p.  42, 
below.)     fS.   B.  D.]  ■  ■  ,:,(j, 


THE  HINDU  CALENDAR.  41 

nomical  works  and  in  panchaiigs.  In  the  latter  sometimes  its  expired  years,  sometimes  current 
years  are    given,  and  sometimes  both.     It  is  not  often  used  in  epigraphical  records.  ' 

Saptarslii- Kala. — This  era  is  in  use  in  Kashmir  and  the  neighbourhood.  At  the  time  of 
Alberuni  (1030  A.D.),  it  appears  to  have  been  in  use  also  in  Multan  and  some  other  parts.  It  is 
the  only  mode  of  reckoning  mentioned  in  the  Raja  Tar aiigini.  It  is  sometimes  called  the  "  Lau- 
kika-Kala"  and  sometimes  the  "  Sastra-Kala".  It  originated  on  the  supposition  that  the  seven  Rishis 
(the  seven  bright  stars  of  Ursa  Major)  move  through  one  nakshatra  (27th  part  of  the  ecliptic) 
in  100  years,  and  make  one  revolution  in  2700  years;  the  era  consequently  consists  of  cycles  of 
2700  years.  But  in  practice  the  hundreds  are  omitted,  and  as  soon  as  the  reckoning  reaches  lOO, 
a  fresh  hundred  begins  from  i.  Kashmirian  astronomers  make  the  era,  or  at  least  one  of  its 
cycles  of  2700  years,  begin  with  Chaitra  .sukla  ist  of  Kali  27  current.  Disregarding  the  hundreds 
we  must  add  47  to  the  Saptarshi  year  to  find  the  corresponding  current  Saka  year,  and  24 — 25 
for  the  corresponding  Christian  year.  The  years  are  Chaitradi.  Dr.  F.  Kielhorn  finds  ^  that  they 
are  mostly  current  years,  and  the  months  mostly  purnimanta. 

The  Vikrama  era. — In  the  present  day  this  era  is  in  use  in  Gujarat  and  over  almost  all 
the  north  of  India,  except  perhaps  Bengal.  ^  The  inhabitants  of  these  parts,  when  migrating  to 
other  parts  of  India,  carry  the  use  of  the  era  with  them.  In  Northern  India  the  year  is  Chaitradi, 
and  its  months  purnimanta,  but  in  Gujarat  it  is  Karttikadi  and  its  months  are  amanta.  The  settlers 
in  the  Madras  Presidency  from  Northern  India,  especially  the  Marvadis  who  use  the  Vikrama 
year,  naturally  begin  the  year  with  Chaitra  sukla  pratipada  and  employ  the  purnimanta  scheme 
of  months;  while  immigrants  from  Gujarat  follow  their  own  scheme  of  a  Karttikadi  amanta  year, 
but  always  according  to  the  Vikrama  era.  In  some  parts  of  Kathiavad  and  Gujarat  the  Vikrama 
era  is  Ashadhadi  *  and  its  months  amanta.  The  practice  in  the  north  and  south  leads  in  the 
present  day  to  the  Chaitradi  purnimanta  Vikrama  year  being  sometimes  called  the  "  Northern 
Vikrama,"  and  the  Karttikadi  amanta  Vikrama  year  the  "Southern  Vikrama." 

The  correspondence  of  these  three  varieties  of  the  Vikrama  era  with  the  Saka  and  other 
eras,  as  well  as  of  their  months,  will  be  found  in  Table  II.,  Parts  ii.  and  iii. 

Prof.  F.  Kielhorn  has  treated  of  this  era  at  considerable  length  in  the  hid.  Antiq.,  vols.  XIX. 
and  XX.,  and  an  examination  of  150  different  dates  from  898  to  1877  of  that  era  has  led  him 
to  the  following  conclusions  (ibid.,  XX.,  p.  j^8  ff.). 

(i)  It  has  been  at  all  times  the  rule  for  those  who  use  the  Vikrama  era  to  quote  the 
expired  years,  and  only  exceptionally  =  the  current  year. 

(2)  The  Vikrama  era  was  Karttikadi  from  the  beginning,  and  it  is  probable  that  the 
change  which  has  gradually  taken  place  in  the  direction  of  a  more  general  use  of  the  Chaitradi 
year  was  owing  to  the  increasing  growth  and  influence  of  the  Saka  era.  Whatever  may  be  the 
practice  in  quite  modern  times,  it  seems  certain  that  down  to  about  the  14th  century  of  the 
Vikrama  era  both  kinds  of  years,  the  Karttikadi  and  the  Chaitradi,  were  used  over  exactly  the  same 
tracts  of  country,  but  more  frequently  the  Karttikadi.

Vikrama  Samvat,  is  Chaitradi  pilrnimunta.

42  THE  INDIAN  CALENDAR. 

amanta  scheme  of  months,  the  Chaitradi  year  is  found  to  be  more  commonly  joined  with  the  purnimanta 
scheme:  but  neither  scheme  can  be  exclusively  connected  with  either  the  Karttikadi  or  Chaitradi  year. 

The  era  was  called  the  "  Malava"  era  from  about  A.D.  450  to  850.  The  earliest  known 
date  containing  the  word  "Vikrama"  is  Vikrama-samvat  898  (about  A.D.  840);  but  there  the  era 
is  somewhat  vaguely  described  as  "the  time  called  Vikrama";  and  it  is  in  a  poem  composed  in 
the  Vikrama  year  1050  (about  A.D.  992)  that  we  hear  for  the  first  timeof  a  king  called  Vikrama 
in  connection  with  it.     (See  Ind.  Antiq.,  XX.,  p.  404). 

At  the  present  day  the  Vikrama  era  is  sometimes  called  the  "  Vikrama-samvat  ",  and 
sometimes  the  word  "  samvat  "  is  used  alone  as  meaning  a  year  of  that  era.  But  we  have 
instances  in  which  the  word  "samvat"  (which  is  obviously  an  abbreviation  of  the  word  i'awj'iZAtfr^?, 
or    year)    is    used    to    denote    the  years  of  the  Saka,  Siihha,  or  Valabhi  eras  '   indiscriminately. 

In  some  native  pahchahgs  from  parts  of  the  Madras  presidency  and  Mysore  for  recent 
years  the  current  Vikrama  dates  are  given  in  correspondence  with  current  Saka  dates  ;  for 
example,  the  year  corresponding  to  A.D.  1893—9413  said  to  be  Saka  1 8 16,  or  Vikrama  I95i-  (-S^^ 
remarks  o?i  the  Saka  era  abcn'e.) 

The  Christian  era.  This  has  come  into  use  in  India  only  since  the  establishment  of  the 
English  rule.  Its  years  at  present  are  tropical  solar  commencing  with  January  ist,  and  are  taken 
as  current  years.  January  corresponds  at  the  present  time  with  parts  of  the  luni-solar  amanta 
months  Margasirsha  and  Pausha,  or  Pausha  and  Magha.  Before  the  introduction  of  the  new  style, 
however,  in  1752  A.D.,  it  coincided  with  parts  of  amanta  Pausha  and  Magha,  or  Magha  and 
Phalguna.  The  Christian  months,  as  regards  their  correspondence  with  luni-solar  and  solar  months, 
are  given  in  Table  II.,  Part  ii. 

The  Saka  era. — This  era  is  extensively  used  over  the  whole  of  India  ;  and  in  most  parts 
of  Southern  India,  except  in  Tinnevelly  and  part  of  Malabar,  it  is  used  exclusively.  In  other 
parts  it  is  used  in  addition  to  local  eras.  In  all  the  Karanas,  or  practical  works  on  astronomy 
it  is  used  almost  exclusively.  ^  Its  years  are  Chaitradi  for  luni-solar,  and  Meshadi  for  solar, 
reckoning.  Its  months  are  purnimanta  in  the  North  and  amanta  in  Southern  India.  Current 
years    are    given    in  some  panchangs,  but  the  expired  years  are  in  use  in  most '  parts  of  India. 

The    Chedi  or  Kalachuri  era. — This  era  is  not  now  in  use.   Prof.  F.  Kielhorn,   examining 
the  dates  contained  in  ten  inscriptions  of  this  era  from  793   to  934,  *  has  come  to  the  conclusion 
1     See  Ind.  Ant.,  vol.  XII.,  pp.  213,  293;  XI.,  p.  242  /. 

-  I  have  seen  only  two  examples  in  which  authors  of  Karaiias  have  used  any  other  era  along  with  the  Saka.  The  author  of 
the  Edma-vinoda  gives,  as  the  startinft-point  for  calculations,  the  .\kbar  year  35  together  with  the  Saka  year  1312  (expireJ),  and  the 
author  of  the  Phatli-sdliapriikdisa  fixes  as  its  starting-point  the  48th  year  of  "Phattesllha"  coupled  with  the  Saka  year  1626.  [S.  B  D.] 
^  Certain  Telugu  (luni-solar)  and  Tamil  (solar)  panehaiigs  for  the  last  few  years,  which  I  have  procured,  and  which  were 
printed  at  Madras  and  are  clearly  in  use  in  that  Presidency,  as  well  as  a  Canarese  pafich&iig  for  A.D.  1893,  (Sakft  181B  current, 
1815  expired)  edited  by  the  Palace  Astronomer  of  H.  H.  the  MahdrftjS  of  Mysore,  give  the  current  Saka  years.  But  I  strongly 
doubt  whether  the  authors  of  these  paiichaugs  are  themselves  acquainted  with  the  distinction  between  so-called  current  .ind  expired 
years.  For  instance,  there  is  a  paiiohftng  annually  prepared  by  Mr.  Auua  AyyaiigAr.  a  resident  of  Kanjnur  in  the  Tanjore  District, 
which  appears  to  be  in  general  use  in  the  Tamil  country,  and  in  that  for  the  solar  Mcshfidi  year  corresponding  to  1887 — 88  he  uses 
the  expired  Suka  year,  calling  this  1809,  while  in  those  for  two  other  years  that  I  have  seen  the  current  Saka  year  is  used.  1  have 
conversed  with  several  Tamil  gentlemen  at  Poona,  and  learn  from  them  that  in  their  part  of  India  the  generality  of  people  are 
acquainted  only  with  the  name  of  the  samvatsara  of  the  60-ycar  cycle,  and  give  no  numerical  value  to  the  years.  Where  the  years 
are  numbered,  however,  the  expired  year  is  in  general  use.  I  am  therefore  inclined  to  believe  that  the  so-called  current  Saka  years 
are  nowhere  in  use;  and  it  becomes  a  question  whether  the  soeullcd  expired  Saka  year  is  really  an  expired  one      [S.  B.  D.]

calculated  these  same  inscription-dates  in  March,  1887,  and  had,  in  conjunction  with  Dr.  Fleet,  arrived  at  nearly  the  same  conclusions 
as  Dr.  Kielborn's,  but  we  did  not  then  settle  the  epoch,  believing  that  the  data  were  not  sufficiently  reliable  (Corpus.  Imrrip. 
Indie.,  Vol.  III.,  Introd.,  p    9.     [S.  B.  D.]      See  also  Dr.  Kielborn's  Paper  read  before  the  Orieutal  Congress  in  London.  [R.  S] 


THE  HINDU  CALENDAR.  43 

that  the  ist  day  of  the  1st  iiirrcnt  Chedi  year  corresponds  to  Asvina  sukla  pratipada  of 
Chaitradi  Vikrama  306  current,  (Saka  171  current,  5th  Sept.,  A. D.  248);  that  consequently  its  years 
are  Asvinadi  ;  that  they  are  used  as  current  years;  that  its  months  are  purnimanta;  and  that  its 
epoch,  i.e.,  the  beginning  of  Chedi  year  o  current,  is  A.  D.   247—48. 

The  era  was  used  by  the  Kalachuri  kings  of  Western  and  Central  India,  and  it  appears 
to  have  been  in  use  in  that  part  of  India  in  still  earlier  times. 

The  Gupta  era. — This  era  is  also  not  now  in  use.  Dr.  Fleet  has  treated  it  at  great  length 
in  the  introduction  to  the  Corpus,  hiscrip .  hid.  (Vol.  Ill,  ''Gupta  htscriptions'"),  and  again 
in  the  Indian  Antiquary  (Vol.  XX.,  pp.  376  ff.)  His  examination  of  dates  in  that  era  from  163 
to  386  leads  him  to  conclude  that  its  years  are  current  and  Chaitradi;  that  the  months  are 
purnimanta;  and  that  the  epoch,  i.e.,  the  beginning  of  Gupta  Samvat  o  current,  is  Saka  242  current 
(A.  D.  319 — 20).     The  era  was  in   use  in  Central  India  and  Nepal,  and  was  used  by  the  Gupta  kings. 

The  Valabhi  era. — This  is  merely  a  continuation  of  the  Gupta  era  with  its  name  changed 
into  "Valabhi."  It  was  in  use  in  Kathiavad  and  the  neighbourhood,  and  it  seems  to  have  been 
introduced  there  in  about  the  fourth  Gupta  century.  The  beginning  of  the  year  was  thrown 
back  from  Chaitra  sukla  ist  to  the  previous  Karttika  sukla  ist,  and  therefore  its  epoch  went 
back  five  months,  and  is  synchronous  with  the  current  Karttikadi  Vikrama  year  376  (A. D.  318 — 19, 
Saka  241 — 42  current).     Its  months  seem  to  be  both  amanta  and  purnimanta. 

The  inscriptions  as  yet  discovered  which  are  dated  in  the  Gupta  and  Valabhi  era  range 
from  the  years  82  to  945  of  that  era. 

The  Bengali  San. — An  era  named  the  "  Bengali  San  "  (sometimes  written  in  English  "  Sen  "") 
is  in  use  in  Bengal.  It  is  a  solar  year  and  runs  witli  the  solar  Saka  year,  beginning  at  the 
Mesha  sahkranti ;  but  the  months  receive  lunar  month  names,  and  the  first,  which  corresponds 
with  the  Tamil  Chaitra,  or  with  Mesha  according  to  the  general  reckoning,  is  here  called  Vaisakha, 
and  so  on  throughout  the  year,  their  Chaitra  corresponding  with  the  Tamil  Phalguna,  or  with 
the  Mina  of  our  Tables.  We  treat  the  years  as  current  ones.  Bengali  San  1300  current  cor- 
responds with  Saka  1816  current  (A. D.  1893 — 94.)  Its  epoch  was  Saka  516  current,  A. D.  593 — 94. 
To  convert  a  Bengali  San  date  into  a  Saka  date  for  purposes  of  our  Tables,  add  516  to  the 
former  year,  which  gives  the  current  Saka  solar  year,  and  adopt  the  comparison  of  months  given 
in  Table  II.,  Part,  ii.,  cols.  8,  9. 

The  Vilayati  year. — This  is  another  solar  year  in  use  in  parts  of  Bengal,  and  chiefly  in 
Orissa;  it  takes  lunar-month  names,  and  its  epoch  is  nearly  the  same  as  that  of  the  "Bengali 
San",  viz.,  Saka  515 — 16  current,  A.D.  592 — 93,  But  it  differs  in  two  respects.  First,  it  begins 
the  year  with  the  solar  month  Kanya  which  corresponds  to  Bengal  solar  Asvina  or  Assin. 
Secondly,  the  months  begin  on  the  day  of  the  sahkranti  instead  of  on  the  following  (2nd)  or  3rd 
day  (see  Art.  28,  the  Orissa  Rule). 

The  Anili  Era  of  Orissa — This  era  is  thus  described  in  Girisa  Chandra's  "  Chronological 
Tables"  (preface,  p.  xvi.):  "The  AmU  commences  from  the  birth  of  Indradyumna,  Raja  of  Orissa, 
on  Bhadrapada  sukla  12th,  and  each  month  commences  from  the  moment  when  the  sun  enters 
a  new  sign.     The  Amli  San  is  used  in  business  transactions  and  in  the  courts  of  law  in  Orissa."  ^ 

1  The  Vil&yati  era,  as  given  in  some  Bengal  Government  annual  chi'onologiral  Tables,  and  in  a  Bengali  panchahg  printed  in 
Calcutta  that  I  have  seen,  is  made  identical  with  this  Amli  era  in  almost  every  respect,  except  that  its  months  are  made  to  com- 
mence civilly  in  accordance  with  the  second  variety  of  the  midnight  rule  (Art.  28).  But  facts  seem  to  be  that  the  Vilayati  year 
commences,  not  on  lunar  Bhildrapada  sukla  12th,  but  with  the  Kanya  sanki-anti,  while  the  Amli  year  does  begin  on  lunar  Bhftdrapada 
sukla  12th.  It  may  be  remarked  that  Warren  writes— in  A.D.  1823 — (Xi/ajandWiYa,  Taite/J. /X)  that  the"  Vilaity  year  is  reckoned 
from  the  1st  of  the  krishna  paksha  in  Chaitra",  and  that  its  numerical  designation   is  the  same  with  the  Bengali  San.  [S.  B.  D.] 


44  THE  INDIAN  CALENDAR. 

It  is  thus  luni-solar  with  respect  to  changing  its  numerical  designation,  but  solar  as  regards  the 
months  and  days.  But  it  seems  probable  that  it  is  really  luni-solar  also  as  regards  its  months 
and  days. 

The  Kanya  sankranti  can  take  place  on  any  day  from  about  1 1  day.s  previous  to  lunar 
Bhadrapada  sukla  12th  to  about  18  days  after  it.  With  the  difference  of  so  many  days  the  epoch 
and  numerical  designation  of  the  Amli  and  Vilayat!  years  are  the  same. 

Tlic  Fasali  year. — This  is  the  harvest  year  introduced,  as  some  say,  by  Akbar,  originally 
derived  from  the  Muhammadan  year,  and  bearing  the  same  number,  but  beginning  in  July. 
It  was,  in  most  parts  of  India,  a  solar  year,  but  the  different  customs  of  different  parts  of  India 
caused  a  divergence  of  reckoning.  Its  epoch  is  apparently  A.  H.  963  (A.  D.  1556),  when  its 
number  coincided  with  that  of  the  purely  lunar  Muhammadan  year,  and  from  that  date  its  years 
have  been  solar  or  luni-solar.  Thus  (A.  H.)  963  ■\-  337  (solar  years)  =  1300,  and  (A.  D.) 
15564-337=1893  A.D.,  with  a  part  of  which  year  Fasali  1300  coincides,  while  the  same 
year  is  A.  H.  1310.  The  era  being  purely  official,  and  not  appealing  to  the  feelings  of  the  people 
of  India,  the  reckoning  is  often  found  to  be  loose  and  unreliable.  In  Madras  the  Fasali  year 
originally  commenced  with  the  1st  day  of  the  solar  month  Adi  (Karka),  but  about  the  year 
1800  A.D.  the  British  Government,  finding  that  this  date  then  coincided  with  July  13th,  fixed 
July  13th  as  the  permanent  initial  date;  and  in  A.D.  1855  altered  this  for  convenience  to  July 
1st,  the  present  reckoning.  In  parts  of  Bombay  the  Fasali  begins  when  the  sun  enters  the 
nakshatra  Mrigasirsha,  viz.,  (at  present)  about  the  5th  or  6th  June.  The  Bengali  year  and  the 
Vilayati  year  both  bear  the  same  number  as  the  Fasali  year. 

The  names  of  months,  their  periods  of  beginning,  and  the  serial  number  of  days  are  the 
same  as  in  the  Hijra  year,  but  the  year  changes  its  numerical  designation  on  a  stated  solar  day. 
Thus  the  year  is  already  a  solar  year,  as  it  was  evidently  intended  to  be  from  its  name.  But 
at  the  present  time  it  is  luni-solar  in  Bengal,  and,  we  believe,  over  all  North-Western  India,  and 
this  gives  rise  to  a  variety,  to  be  now  described. 

The  hmi-solar  Fasali  year.- — This  reckoning,  though  taking  its  name  from  a  Muhammadan 
source,  is  a  purely  Hindu  year,  being  luni-solar,  purnimanta,  and  A.svinadi.  Thus  the  luni-solar 
Fasali  year  in  Bengal  and  N.  W.  India  began  (purnimanta  Asvina  krishna  pratipada,  Saka  18 15 
currents)  Sept.  7th,  1882.  A  peculiarity  about  the  reckoning,  however,  is  that  the  months  are 
not  divided  into  bright  and  dark  fortnights,  but  that  the  whole  runs  without  distinction  of  pakshas, 
and  without  addition  or  cxpunction  of  tithis  from  the  1st  to  the  end  of  the  mouth,  beginning 
with  the  full  moon.  Its  epoch  is  the  same  as  that  of  the  Vilayati  year,  only  that  it  begins 
with  the  full  moon  next  preceding  or  succeeding  the  Kanya  sankranti,  instead  of  on  the  sankranti  day. 

In  Southern  India  the  FasaH  year  1302  began  on  June  5th,  1892,  in  Bombay,  and  on 
July  1st,  1892,  in  Madras.  It  will  be  seen,  therefore,  that  it  is  about  two  years  and  a  quarter  in 
advance  of  Bengal. 

To  convert  a  luni-solar  Bengali  or  N.  W.  Fasali  date,  approximately,  into  a  date  easily 
workable  by  our  Tables,  treat  the  year  as  an  ordinary  luni-solar  purnimanta  year;  count  the 
days  after  the  i  5th  of  the  month  as  if  they  were  days  in  the  sukla  fortnight,  1 5  being  deducted 
from  the  given  figure ;  add  515  to  make  the  year  correspond  with  the  Saka  year,  for  dates 
between  Asvina  1st  and  Chaitra  15th  (  =:  amanta  Bhadrapada  krishna  ist  and  amanta  Phalguna 
krishna  30th) — and  516  between  Chaitra  15th  and  Asvina  i.st.  Thus,  let  Chaitra  25th  1290  be 
the  given  date.  The  25th  .should  be  converted  into  .sukla  10th;  adding  5  16  to  1290  we  have  1806, 
the  equivalent  Saka  year.  The  corresponding  Saka  date  is  therefore  amanta  Chaitra   sukla  lotli, 


THE  HTNDU  CALENDAR.  45 

1806  current.  From  this  the  conversion  to  an  A.  D.  date  can  be  worked  by  the  Tables.  For 
an  exact  equivalent  the  sankranti  day  must  be  a.scertained. 

The  Mahratta  Siir-saii  or  Slialitir-san. — This  is  sometimes  called  the  Arabi-san.  It  was 
extensively  used  during  the  Mahratta  supremacy,  and  is  even  now  sometimes  found,  though 
rarely.  It  is  nine  years  behind  the  Fasali  of  the  Dakhan,  but  in  other  respects  is  just  the  same; 
thus,  its  year  commences  when  the  sun  enters  the  nakshatra  Mrigasirsha,  in  which  respect  it  is 
solar,  but  the  days  and  months  correspond  with  Hijra  reckoning.  It  only  diverged  from  the  Hijra 
in  A.D.  1344,  according  to  the  best  computation,  since  when  it  has  been  a  solar  year  as 
described  above.  On  May  15th,  AD.  1344,  the  Hijra  year  745  began.  But  since  then  the 
Shahur  reckoning  was  carried  on  by  itself  as  a  solar  year.  To  convert  it  to  an  A.D.  year, 
add   599. 

The  Harsha-Kala. — This  era  was  founded  by  Harshavardhana of  Kanauj,  '  or  more  properly 
of  Thancsar.  At  the  time  of  Alberuni  (A.D.  1030)  it  was  in  use  in  Mathura  (Muttra)  and  Kanauj. 
Its  epoch  seems  to  be  Saka  529  current,  A.D.  606 — 7.  More  than  ten  inscriptions  have  been 
discovered  in  Nepal  ^  dated  in  the  first  and  second  century  of  this  era.  In  all  those  discovered 
as  yet  the  years  are  qualified  only  by  the  word  "  samvat  ". 

The  Magi-San.— 'Y\i\<i  era  is  current  in  the  District  of  Chittagong.  It  is  very  similar  to 
the  Bengali-san,  the  days  and  months  in  each  being  exactly  alike.  The  Magi  is,  however,  45  years 
behind  the  Bengali  year,'  e.g..  Magi   1200=  Bengali   1245. 

The  Kollam  era,  or  era  of  Farasitrawa.  — The  year  of  this  era  is  known  as  the  Kollam 
andu.  Kollam  (anglice  Quilon)  means  "western",  andu  means  "a  year".  The  era  is  in  use  in 
Malabar  from  Mangalore  to  Cape  Comorin,  and  in  the  Tinnevelly  district.  The  year  is  sidereal 
solar.  In  North  Malabar  it  begins  with  the  solar  month  Kanni  (Kanya),  and  in  South  Malabar 
and  Tinnevelly  with  the  month  Chiiigam  (Siriiha).  In  Malabar  the  names  of  the  months  are 
sign-names,  though  corrupted  from  the  original  Sanskrit ;  but  in  Tinnevelly  the  names  are  chiefly 
those  of  lunar  months,  also  corrupted  from  Sanskrit,  such  as  Sittirai  or  Chittirai  for  the  Sanskrit 
Chaitra,  corresponding  with  Mesha,  and  so  on.  The  sign-names  as  well  as  the  lunar-month  names 
are  given  in  the  paiichangs  of  Tinnevelly  and  the  Tamil  country.  All  the  names  will  be  found 
in  Table  II.,  Part  ii.  The  first  Kollam  andu  commenced  in  Kali  3927  current,  Saka  748  current, 
A.D.  825  —  26,  the  epoch  being  Saka  747 — 48  current,  A.D.  824 — 25.  The  years  of  this  era  as 
used  are  current  years,  and  we  have  treated  them  so  in  our  Tables. 

The  era  is  also  called  the  "era  of  Parasurama",  and  the  years  run  in  cycles  of  1000.  The 
present  cycle  is  said  to  be  the  fourth,  but  in  actual  modern  use  the  number  has  been  allowed 
to  run  on  over  the  1000,  A.D.  1894 — 95  being  called  Kollam  1070.  We  believe  that  there  is 
no  record  extant  of  its  use  earlier  than  A.D.  825,  and  we  have  therefore,  in  our  Table  I.,  left  the 
appropriate  column  blank  for  the  years  A.D.  300 — 825.  If  there  were  really  three  cycles  ending 
with  the  year  1000,  which  expired  A.D.  824 — 25,  then  it  would  follow  that  the  Parasurama,  or 
Kollam,  era  began  in  Kali  1927  current,  or  the  year  3528  of  the  Julian  period.  *

the  Kali  yug".  But  this  is  wrong  if,  as  we  believe,  the  Kollam  ycara  are  current  years,  and  we  know  no  reason  to  think  them 
otherwise.  Warren's  account  was  based  on  that  of  Dr.  Buchanan  who  made  the  977th  year  of  the  third  cycle  commence  in  A.D.  1800.

46  THE  INDIAN  CALENDAR. 

was  introduced.  '  Its  years  are  Karttikadi,  its  months  amanta,  and  its  epoch  (the  beginning  of  the 
Nevar  year  o  current)  is  the  Karttikadi  Vikrama  year  936  current,  Saka  801 — 2  current,  A.D.  878 — 79. 
Dr.  F.  Kielhorn,  in  his  hidian  Antiquary  paper  on  the  "Epoch  of  the  Nevvar  era"-  has  come 
to  the  conclusion  that  its  years  are  generally  given  in  expired  years,  only  two  out  of  twenty-five 
dates  examined  by  him,  running  from  the  235th  to  the  995th  year  of  the  era,  being  current 
ones.  The  era  is  called  the  "Nepal  era"  in  inscriptions,  and  in  Sanskrit  manuscripts ;  "Nevar" 
seems  to  be  a  corruption  of  that  word.  Table  II.,  Part  iii.,  below  gives  the  correspondence  of 
the  years  with  those  of  other  eras. 

The  Chalukya  era.  This  was  a  short-lived  era  that  lasted  from  Saka  998  (A.D.  1076) 
to  Saka  1084  (A.D.  1162)  only.  It  was  instituted  by  the  Chalukya  king  Vikramaditya  Tribhuvana 
Malla,  and  seems  to  have  ceased  after  the  defeat  of  the  Eastern  Chalukyas  in  A.D.  1162  by 
Vijala  Kalachuri.  It  followed  the  Saka  reckoning  of  months  and  pakshas.  The  epoch  was  Saka 
998 — 99  current,  A.D.   1075 — 76. 

The  Simha  Samvat. — This  era  was  in  use  in  Kathiavad  and  Gujarat.  From  four  dates 
in  that  era  of  the  years  32,  93,  96  and  151,  discussed  in  the  Indian  Antiquary  (Vols.  XVIII. 
and  XIX.  and  elsewhere),  we  infer  that  its  year  is  luni-solar  and  current;  the  months  are  presumably 
amanta,  but  in  one  instance  they  seem  to  be  purnimanta,  and  the  year  is  most  probably  Ashadhadi. 
It  is  certainly  neither  Karttikadi  nor  Chaitradi.  Its  epoch  is  Saka  1036 — 37  current,  A.D.  11 13— 14. 

Tlie  Lakshmana  Sena  era. — This  era  is  in  use  in  Tirhut  and  Mithila,  but  always  along 
with  the  Vikrama  or  Saka  year.  The  people  who  use  it  know  little  or  nothing  about  it. 
There  is  a  difference  of  opinion  as  to  its  epoch.  Colebrooke  (A.D.  1796)  makes  the  first  year 
of  this  era  correspond  with  A.D.  1105;  Buchanan  (A.D.  1810)  fi.xes  it  as  A.D.  1105  or  1106; 
Tirhut  almanacs,  however,  for  the  years  between  A.D.  1776  and  1880  shew  that  it  corresponds 
with  A.D.  1 108  or  1 109.  Buchanan  states  that  the  year  commences  on  the  first  day  after  the 
full  moon  of  the  month  Ashadha,  while  Dr.  Rajendra  Lai  Mitra  (A.D.  1878)  and  General  Cunningham 
assert  that  it  begins  on  the  first  Magha  badi  (Magha  krishna  ist).  '  Dr.  F.  Kielhorn,  examining  six 
independent  inscriptions  dated  in  that  era  (from  A.D.  11 94  to  1551),  concludes''  that  the  year 
of  the  era  is  Karttikadi ;  that  the  months  are  amanta  ;  that  its  first  year  corresponds  with  A.D. 
1 119 — 20,  the  epoch  being  A.D.  II 18— 19,  Saka  1041 — 42  current ;  and  that  documents  and  inscriptions 
are  generally  dated  in  the  expired  year.  This  conclusion  is  supported  by  Abul  Fazal's  statement 
in  the  Akbarnama  (Saka  1506,  A.D.  1584).  Dr.  Kielhorn  gives,  in  support  of  his  conclusion, 
the  equation  "Laksh:  sam:  505  =  Saka  sam:  1546"  from  a  manuscript  oithe.  Smrititattc'amrita, 
and  proves  the  correctness  of  his  epoch  by  other  dates  than  the  six  first  given. 

The  Ilahi  era. — The  "Tarikh-i  Ilahi,"  that  is  "the  mighty  or  divine  era,"  was  established  by 
the  emperor  Akbar.  It  dates  from  his  accession,  which,  according  to  the  Tabakat-i-Akbari,  was 
Friday  the  2nd  of  Rabi-us-sani,  A.H.  963,  or  14th  February,  '■>  1556  (O.  S.),  Saka  1478  current. 
It  was  employed  extensively,  though  not  exclusively  on  the  coins  of  Akbar  and  Jahangir,  and 
appears  to  have  fallen  into  disuse  early  in  the  reign  of  Shah-Jahan.  According  to  Abul  Fazal, 
the  days  and  months  are  both  natural  solar,  without  any  intercalations.  The  names  of  tlie  months 
and    days    correspond    with    the    ancient    Persian.     The  months  have  from  29  to  30  days  each.

THE  HINDU  CALENDAR.  47 

There  are  no  weeks,  the  whole  30  days  being  distinguished  by  different  names,  and  in  those 
months  which  have  32  days  the  two  last  are  named  roz  o  j/trti^ (day  and  night),  and  to  distinguish 
one  from  another  are  called  "first"  and  "  second  ".  1  Here  the  lengths  of  the  months  are  said  to  be 
"from  29  to  30  days  each",  but  in  the  old  Persian  calendar  of  Yazdajird  they  had  30  days 
each,  the  same  as  amongst  the  Parsees  of  the  present  day.  The  names  of  the  twelve  months 
are  as  follow. — 

Mirdad  9     Ader 

Shariur  10     Dei 

Mihir  1 1      Bahman 

Aban  1 2     Isfandarmaz 

The  Mahratta  Raja  Saka  era. — This  is  also  called  the  "  Rajyabhisheka  Saka".  The 
word  "Saka"  is  used  here  in  the  sense  of  an  era.  It  was  established  by  Sivaji,  the  founder 
of  the  Mahratta  kingdom,  and  commenced  on  the  day  of  his  accession  to  the  throne,  i.e.,  Jyeshtha 
sukla  trayodasi  (13th)  of  Saka  1596  expired,  1597  current,  the  Ananda  samvatsara.  The  number 
of  the  year  changes  every  Jyeshtha  sukla  trayodasi ;  the  years  are  current ;  in  other  respects  it 
is  the  same  as  the  Southern  luni-solar  amanta  Saka  years.  Its  epoch  is  Saka  1596 — 97  current, 
A.D.   1673 — 74.     It  is  not  now  in  use. 

72.  Names  of  Hindi  and  N.  W.  Fasali  months. — Some  of  the  months  in  the  North  of  India 
and  Bengal  are  named  differently  from  those  in  the  Peninsula.  Names  which  are  manifestly 
corruptions  need  not  be  noticed,  though  "BhadCm"  for  Bhadrapada  is  rather  obscure.  But  "  Kuar" 
for  Asvina,  and  "Aghan",  or  "Aghran",  for  Margasirsha  deserve  notice.  The  former  seems  to 
be  a  corruption  of  Kumari,  a  synonym  of  Kanya  (=:Virgo,  the  damsel),  the  solar  sign-name.  If  so, 
it  is  a  peculiar  instance  of  applying  a  solar  sign-name  to  a  lunar  month.  "  Aghan  "  (or  "  Aghran  ") 
is  a  corrupt  form  of  Agrahayana,  which  is  another  name  of  Margasirsha. 


PART    III. 
DESCRIPTION  AND   EXPLANATION   OF   THE    TABLES. 

73.  Table  I. — Table  I.  is  our  principal  and  general  Table,  and  it  forms  the  basis  for  all 
calculations.  It  will  be  found  divided  into  three  sections,  (i)  Table  of  concurrent  years ;  (2)  inter- 
calated and  suppressed  months;  (3)  moments  of  commencement  of  the  solar  and  luni  solar  years. 
All  the  figures  refer  to  mean  solar  time  at  the  meridian  of  (Jjjain.  The  calculations  are  based  on  the 
Siirya-Siddlianta,  without  the  bija  up  to  1500  A.D.  and  with  it  afterwards,  with  the  exception 
of  cols.  13  to  17  inclusive  for  which  the  Arya-Siddhanta  has  been  used.  Throughout  the  table 
the  solar  year  is  taken  to  commence  at  the  moment  of  the  apparent  Mesha  saiikranti  or  first 
point  of  Aries,  and  the  luni-solar  year  with  amanta  Chaitra  sukla  pratipada.  The  months  are 
taken  as  amanta. 

74.  Cols.    I    to  J. — In    these  columns  the  concurrent  years  of  the  six  principal  eras  are

given.  (As  to  current  and  expired  years  see  Art.  70  above.)  A  short  description  of  eras  is  given 
in  Art.  71.  The  years  in  the  first  three  columns  are  used  ahke  as  solar  and  luni-solar,  commenc- 
ing respectively  with  Mesha  or  Chaitra.  (For  the  beginning  point  of  the  year  see  Art.  52  above.) 
The  Vikrama  year  given  in  col.  3  is  the  Chaitradi  Vikrama  year,  or,  when  treated  as  a  solar 
year  which  is  very  rarely  the  case,  the  Meshadi  year.  The  Ashadhadi  and  Karttikadi  Vikrama 
years  are  not  given,  as  they  can  be  regularly  calculated  from  the  Chaitradi  year,  remembering 
that  the  number  of  the  former  year  is  one  less  than  that  of  the  Chaitradi  year  from  Chaitra  to 
Jyeshtha  or  A.svina  (both  inclusive),  as  the  case  may  be,  and  the  same  as  the  Chaitradi  year  from 
Ashadha  or  Karttika  to  the  end  of  Phalguna. 

Cols.  ^  atid  J.  The  eras  in  cols.  4  and  5  are  described  above  (Art.  71.)  The  double 
number  is  entered  in  col.  4  so  that  it  may  not  be  forgotten  that  the  Kollam  year  is  non-Chaitradi 
or  non-Meshadi,  since  it  commences  with  either  Kanni  (Kanya)  or  Chingam  (Sirhha).  In  the  case 
of  the  Christian  era  of  course  the  first  year  entered  corresponds  to  the  Kali,  Saka  or  Chaitradi 
Vikrama  year  for  about  three-quarters  of  the  latter's  course,  and  for  about  the  last  quarter  the 
second  Christian  year  entered  must  be  taken.  The  corresponding  parts  of  the  years  of  all  these 
eras  as  well  as  of  several  others  will  be  found  in  Table  II.,  Parts  ii.  and  iii. 

75.  Co/s.  6  and  7. — These  columns  give  the  number  and  name  of  the  current  samvatsara 
of  the  sijrty-year  cycle.  There  is  reason  to  believe  that  the  sixty-year  luni-solar  cycle  (in  use 
mostly  in  Southern  India)  came  into  existence  only  from  about  A.  D.  909;  and  that  before 
that  the  cycle  of  Jupiter  was  in  use  all  over  India.  That  is  to  say,  before  A.  D'.  909  the  samvat- 
saras  in  Southern  India  were  the  same  as  those  of  the  Jupiter  cycle  in  the  North.  If,  however, 
it  is  found  in  any  case  that  in  a  year  previous  to  A.D.  908  the  samvatsara  given  does  not  agree 
with  our  Tables,  the  rule  in  Art.  62  should  be  applied,  in  order  to  ascertain  whether  it  was  a 
luni-solar  samvatsara. 

The  samvatsara  given  in  col.  7  is  that  which  was  current  at  the  time  of  the  Mesha  safi- 
kranti  of  the  year  mentioned  in  cols,  i  to  3.  To  find  the  samvatsara  current  on  any  particular 
day  of  the  year  the  rules  given  in  Art.  59  should  be  applied.  For  other  facts  regarding  the 
samvatsaras,  see  Arts.    53  to  63   above. 

76.  Cols.  8  to  12,  and  8a  to  12a.  These  concern  the  adiiika  (intercalated)  and  kshaya 
(suppressed)  months.  For  full  particulars  see  Arts.  45  to  51.  V>y  the  mean  system  of  interca- 
lations there  can  be  no  suppressed  months,  and  by  the  true  system  only  a  few.  We  have  given  the 
suppressed  months  in  italics  with  the  sufifix  '' Ksh'"  for  "kshaya."  As  mean  added  months  were 
only  in  use  up  to  A.D.    1 100  (Art.  ^y)  we  have  not  given  them  after  that  year. 

JJ.  The  name  of  the  month  entered  in  col.  8  or  8«  is  fixed  according  to  the  first  rule 
for  naming  a  lunar  month  {Art.  y<5),  which  is  in  use  at  the  present  day.  Thus,  the  name  As/uid/ia, 
in  cols.  8  or  8rt,  shows  that  there  was  an  intercalated  month  between  natural  Jyeshtha  and  natural 
Ashadha,  and  by  the  first  rule  its  name  is  "  Adhika  Ashadha",  natural  Ashadha  being  "  Nija  Ashadha." 
By  the  second  rule  it  might  have  been  called  Jyeshtha,  but  the  intercalated  period  is  the  same 
in  either  case.  In  the  case  of  expunged  months  the  word  "Pausha",  for  instance,  in  col.  8 
shows  that  in  the  lunar  month  between  natural  Karttika  and  natural  Magha  tl;ere  were  two 
safikrantis;  and  according  to  the  rule  adopted  by  us  that  lunar  month  is  called  Marga^irsha, 
Pausha  being  expunged. 

78.  Lists  of  intercalary  and  expunged  months  are  given  by  the  late  Prof  K.  L.  Chhatre 
in  a  h.st  published  in  Vol.  I.,  No.  12  (March  185 1)  of  a  Mahrathi  monthly  magazine  called 
Jhihiaprasaraka,  formerly    published    in    Bombay,  but  now  discontinued ;  as  well  as  in  Cowasjee 


THE  HINDU  CALENDAR.  49 

Patell's  ''Chronology",  and  in  the  late  Gen.  Sir  A.  Cunningham's  "  Indian  Eras,"'  '  But  in  none 
of  these  three  works  is  a  single  word  said  as  to  how,  or  following  what  authority,  the  calculations 
were  made,  so  that  we  have  no  guide  to  aid  us  in  checking  the  correctness  of  their  results. 

79.  An  added  lunar  month  being  one  in  which  no  saiikranti  of  the  sun  occurs,  it  is 
evident  that  a  sankranti  must  fall  shortly  before  the  beginning,  and  another  one  shortly  after  the 
end,  of  such  a  month,  or  in  other  words,  a  solar  month  must  begin  shortly  before  and  must  end 
shortly  after  the  added  lunar  month.  It  is  further  evident  that,  since  such  is  the  case,  calculation 
made  by  some  other  Siddhanta  may  yield  a  different  result,  even  though  the  difference  in  the 
astronomical  data  which  form  the  basis  of  calculation  is  but  slight.  Hence  we  have  deemed  it 
essential,  not  only  to  make  our  own  calculations  afresh  throughout,  but  to  publish  the  actual 
resulting  figures  which  fix  the  months  to  be  added  and  suppressed,  so  that  the  reader  may  judge 
in  each  case  how  far  it  is  likely  that  the  use  of  a  different  authority  would  cause  a  difference 
in  the  months  affected.  Our  columns  fix  the  moment  of  the  sankranti  before  and  the  sankranti 
after  the  added  month,  as  well  as  the  sankranti  after  the  beginning,  and  the  sankranti  before  the 
end,  of  the  suppressed  month ;  or  in  other  words,  determine  the  limits  of  the  adhika  and  kshaya 
masas.  The  accuracy  of  our  calculation  can  be  easily  tested  by  the  plan  shewn  in  Art.  90  below. 
(See  also  Art.  88  below.)  The  moments  of  time  are  expressed  in  two  ways,  viz.,  in  lunation- 
parts    and    tithis,    the    former    following  Prof.  Jacobi's  system  as  given  in  Ind.  Ant.,  Vol.  XVII. 

80.  Lunation-parts  or,  as  we  elsewhere  call  them,  "  tithi-indices  "  (or  "/")  are  extensively 
used  throughout  this  work  and  require  full  explanation.  Shortly  stated  a  lunation-part  is 
iWo*'^  of  an  apparent  synodic  revolution  of  the  moon  {see  Note  2,  Art.  12  above').  It  will  be 
well  to  put  this  more  clearly.  When  the  difference  between  the  longitude  of  the  sun  and  moon, 
or  in  other  words,  the  eastward  distance  between  them,  is  nil,  the  sun  and  moon  are  said  to  be 
in  conjunction  ;  and  at  that  moment  of  time  occurs  (the  end  ot)  amavasya,  or  new  moon.  {Arts.  7.29 
abcc'e)  Since  the  moon  travels  faster  than  the  sun,  the  difference  between  their  longitudes,  or  their 
distance  from  one  another,  daily  increases  during  one  half  and  decreases  during  the  other  half  of  the 
month  till  another  conjunction  takes  place.  The  time  between  two  conjunctions  is  a  synodic 
lunar  month  or  a  lunation,  during  which  the  moon  goes  through  all  its  phases.  The  lunation 
may  thus  be  taken  to  represent  not  only  time  but  space.  We  could  of  course  have  expressed  parts 
of  a  lunation  by  time-measure,  such  as  by  hours  and  minutes,  or  ghatikas  and  palas,  or  by 
space-measure,  such  as  degrees,  minutes,  or  seconds,  but  we  prefer  to  express  it  in  lunation-parts, 
because  then  the  same  number  does  for  either  time  or  space  [see  Art.  S^  belozv).  A  lunation 
consists  of  30  tithis.  -!-th  of  a  lunation  consequently  represents  the  time-duration  of  a  tithi  or  the 
space-measurement  of  12  degrees.  Our  lunation  is  divided  into  10,000  parts,  and  about  333 
lunation-parts  (-!-ths)  go  to  one  tithi,  667  to  two  tithis,  looo  to  three  and  so  on.  Lunation- 
parts  are  therefore  styled  "tithi-indices",  and  by  abbreviation  simply  "/".  Further,  a  lunation 
or  its  parts  may  be  taken  as  apparent  or  mean.  Our  tithi-,  nakshatra-,  and  yoga-indices  are 
apparent  and  not  mean,  except  in  the  case  of  mean  added  months,  where  the  index,  like  the 
whole  lunation,  is  mean. 

1  Gen.  Cunningliam  admittedly  (p.  91)  follows  Cowasjee  Patell's  "C4ro»o/cyy"in  this  respect,  and  on  eiamination  I  find  that  the 
added  and  suppressed  months  in  these  two  works  (setting  aside  some  few  mistakes  of  their  own)  agree  throughout  with  Prof.  Chhatre's 
list,  even  so  far  as  to  include  certain  instances  where  the  latter  was  incorrect.  Patell's  "  Chronoloi/ij"  was  published  fifteen  years  after 
the  publication  of  Prof.  Chhatre's  list,  and  it  is  not  improbable  that  the  former  was  a  copy  of  the  latter.  It  is  odd  that  not  a  single 
word  is  said  in  Cowasjee  Patell's  work  to  shew  how  his  calculations  were  made,  though  in  those  days  he  would  hare  required  months 
or  even  years  of  intricate  calculation  before  he  could  arrive  at  his  results.     [S    B.  D.] 


50  THE  INDIAN  CALENDAR. 

Our  tithi-index,  or  "/",  therefore  shows  in  the  case  of  true  added  months  as  well  as 
elsewhere,  the  space-difference  between  the  apparent,  and  in  the  case  of  mean  intercalations  between 
the  mean,  longitudes  of  the  sun  and  moon,  or  the  time  required  for  the  motions  of  the  sun  and 
moon  to  create  that  difference,  expressed  in  io,oooths  of  a  unit,  which  is  a  circle  in  the  case  of 
space,  and  a  lunation  or  synodic  revolution  of  the  moon  in  the  case  of  time.  Briefly  the  tithi- 
index  "/"  shews  the  position  of  the  moon  in  her  orbit  with  respect  to  the  sun,  or  the  time 
necessary  for  her  to  gain  that  position.,  <'.^^.,  "o"  is  new  moon,  "  5CX)0"  full  moon,  "  10,000"  or  "o" 
new  moon;  "50"  shews  that  the  moon  has  recently  [i.e.,  by  ,-;^„ths,  or  3  hours  n  minutes  — 
Table  X..  col.  3)  passed  the  point  or  moment  of  conjunction  (new  moon) ;  9950  shews  that  she 
is  approaching  new-moon  phase,  which  will  occur  in  another  3  hours  and  33  minutes. 

81.  A  lunation  being  equal  to  30  tithis,  the  tithi-index,  which  expresses  the  io,OOOth  part  of  a 
lunation,  can  easily  be  converted  into  tithi-notation,  for  the  index  multiplied  by  30  (practically 
by  3),  gives,  with  the  decimal  figures  marked  off,  the  required  figure  in  tithis  and  decimals. 
Thus  if  the  tithi-index  is  9950,  which  is  really  0.9950,  it  is  equal  to  (0.9950  X  30=)  29.850 
tithis,  and  the  meaning  is  that  ^/hs  of  the  lunation,  or  29.850  tithis  have  expired.  Conversely 
a  figure  given  in  tithis  and  decimals  divided  by  30  expresses  the  same  in  io,oooths  parts  of  a 
lunation. 

82.  The  tithi-index  or  tithi  is  often  required  to  be  converted  into  a  measure  of  solar 
time,  such  as  hours  or  ghatikas.  Now  the  length  of  an  apparent  lunation,  or  of  an  apparent  tithi, 
perpetually  varies,  indeed  it  is  varying  at  every  moment,  and  consequently  it  is  practically  im- 
possible to  ascertain  it  except  by  elaborate  and  special  calculations;  but  the  length  of  a  mean 
lunation,  or  of  a  mean  tithi,  remains  permanently  unchanged.  Ignoring,  therefore,  the  difference 
between  apparent  and  mean  lunations,  the  tithi-index  or  tithi  can  be  readily  converted  into  time 
by  our  Table  X..  which  shews  the  time-value  of  the  mean  lunation-part  (~th  of  the  mean  lunation), 
and  of  the  mean  tithi-part  (J^th  of  the  mean  tithi).  Thus,  if  /  =  50,  Table  X.  gives  the  duration 
as  3  hours  33  minutes;  and  if  the  tithi-part  ^  is  given  as  0.150  we  have  by  Table  X.  (2  h.  22  m. 
-f    I   h.    1 1  min.  =  )  3  h.   33  m. 

It  must  be  understood  of  course  that  the  time  thus  given  is  not  very  accurate,  because 
the  tithi-index  (/)  is  an  apparent  index,  while  the  values  in  Table  X.  are  for  the  mean  index. 
The  same  remark  applies  to  the  nakshatra  («)  or  yoga  (y)  indices,  and  if  accuracy  is  desired 
the  process  of  calculation  must  be  somewhat  lengthened.  This  is  fully  explained  in  example  i 
in  Art.  148  below.  In  the  case  of  mean  added  months  the  value  of  (/)  the  tithi-index  is  at 
once  absolutely  accurate. 

83.  The  sankrantis  preceding  and  succeeding  an  added  month,  as  given  in  our  Table  I., 
of  course  take  place  respectively  in  the  lunar  month  preceding  and  succeeding  thzi  added  mon\h. 

84.  To  make  the  general  remarks  in  Arts.  80,  81,  82  quite  clear  for  tlie  intercalation  of 
months  we  will  take  an  actual  example.  Thus,  for  the  Kali  year  3403  the  entries  in  cols.  9  and 
1 1  are  9950  and  287,  again.st  the  true  added  month  Asvina  in  col.  8.  This  shews  us  that  the 
saiikranti  preceding  the  true  added,  or  Adhika,  Asvina  took  place  when  9950  lunation-parts  of 
the  natural  month  Bhadrapada  (preceding  Adhika  Asvina)  had  elapsed,  or  when  (10,000  — 9950=) 
50    parts    had    to    elapse    before   the  end  of  Bhadrapada,  or  again  when  50  parts  had  to  elapse 

1  A  thuunandth  part  of  n  tithi  is  equal  to  1.42  minutes,  which  is  sufficiently  minute  for  our  purposes,  but  a  Ihuusaudlh  of  n 
lunation  is  equivalent  to  7  hours  &  minutes,  and  this  is  too  large j  so  that  nc  have  to  tiike  the  lOOOOth  of  a  lunation  as  our  unit, 
which  is  equal  to  4,25  minutes,  and  this  suffices  for  all  practical  purposes  In  this  work  therefore  a  lunation  is  treated  of  as haviui; 
10,000  parts,  and  a  tithi  1000  parts 


THE  HINDU  CALENDAR.  5' 

before  the  beginning  of  the  added  month ;  and  that  the  sankranti  succeeding  true  Adhika  Asvina 
took  place  when  287  parts  of  the  natural  month  Nija  Asvina  had  elapsed,  or  when  287  parts 
had  elapsed  after  the  end  of  the  added  month  Adhika  Asvina. 

85.  The  moments  of  the  sankrantis  are  further  given  in  tithis  and  decimals  in  cols.  10, 
12,  \0a  and  \2a.  Thus,  in  the  above  example  we  find  that  the  preceding  sankranti  took  place 
when  29-850  tithis  of  the  preceding  month  lihadrapada  had  elapsed,  i.e.,  when  (30 — 29-850  =) 
0-150  tithis  had  still  to  elapse  before  the  end  of  Bhadrapada  ;  and  that  the  succeeding  sankranti 
took  place  when  o-86i   of  a  tithi  of  the  succeeding  month,  Asvina,  had  passed. 

To  turn  these  figures  into  time  is  rendered  easy  by  Table  X.  We  learn  from  it  that  the 
preceding  sankranti  took  place  (50  lunation  parts  or  0-150  tithi  parts)  about  3  h.  33  m.  before 
the  beginning  of  Adhika  Asvina;  and  that  the  succeeding  sankranti  took  place  (287  lunation  parts, 
or  -861  tithi  parts)  about  20  h.  20  m.  after  the  end  of  Adhika  Asvina.  This  time  is  approximate. 
For  exact  time  see  Arts.  82  and  90. 

The  tithi-indices  here  shew  (see  Art.  SS]  that  there  is  no  probability  of  a  different  month 
being  intercalated  if  the  calculation  be  made  according  to  a  different  authority. 

86.  To  constitute  an  expunged  month  we  have  shewn  that  two  sankrantis  must  occur 
in  one  lunar  month,  one  shortly  after  the  beginning  and  the  other  shortly  before  the  end  of 
the  month;  and  in  cols.  9  and  10  the  moment  of  the  first  sankranti,  and  in  cols.  11  and  12 
that  of  the  second  sankranti,  is  given.  For  example  see  the  entries  against  Kali  35^^  't* 
Table  I.     As  already  stated,  there  can  never  be  an  expunged  month  by  the  mean  system 

87.  In  the  case  of  an  added  month  the  moon  must  be  waning  at  the  time  of  the  pre- 
ceding, and  waxing  at  the  time  of  the  succeeding  sankranti,  and  therefore  the  figure  ofthetithi- 
index  must  be  approaching  10,000  at  the  preceding,  and  over  10,000,  or  beginning  a  new 
term  of  10,000,  at  the  succeeding,  sankranti.  In  the  case  of  expunged  months  the  case 
is  "  reversed,  and  the  moon  must  be  waxing  at  the  first,  and  waning  at  the  second  sankranti ; 
and  therefore  the  tithi-index  must  be  near  the  beginning  of  a  period  of  10,000  at  the  first, 
and    approaching    10,000    at   the  second,    sankranti. 

88.  When  by  the  Siirya-Siddhanta  a  new  moon  (the  end  of  the  amavasya)  takes  place 
within  about  6  ghatikas,  or  33  lunation-parts,  of  the  sankranti,  or  beginning  and  end  of  a  solar 
month,  there  may  be  a  difference  in  the  added  or  suppressed  month  if  the  calculation  be  made 
according  to  another  Siddlumta.  Hence  when,  in  the  case  of  an  added  month,  the  figure  in 
col.  9  or  ga.  is  more  than  (10,000 — 33  =)  9967,  or  when  that  in  col.  11  or  iirt  is  less  than  33; 
and  in  the  case  of  an  expunged  month  when  the  figure  in  col.  9  is  less  than  33,  or  when  that 
in  col.  1 1  is  more  than  9967,  it  is  possible  that  calculation  by  another  Siddhanta  will  yield  a 
different  month  as  intercalated  or  expunged ;  or  possibly  there  will  be  no  e.xpunction  of  a  month 
at  all.  In  such  cases  fresh  calculations  should  be  made  by  Prof.  Jacobi's  Special  Tables  {Epig. 
hid.,  Vol.  II.)  or  direct  from  the  Sidd/uhita  in  question.  In  all  other  cases  it  may  be  regarded 
as  certain  that  our  months  are  correct  for  all  Sidd/uhitas.  The  limit  of  33  lunation-parts  here 
given  is  generally  sufficient,  but  it  must  not  be  forgotten  that  where  Siddkantas  are  used  with 
a  bija  correction  the  difference  may  amount  to  as  much  as  20  ghatikas,  or  113  lunation-parts 
(See  above,  note  to  Art.  4.^). 

In  the  case  of  the  Surya-Siddltanta  it  may  be  noted  that  the  added  and  suppressed  months 
are  the  same  in  almost  all  cases,  whether  the  blja  is  applied  or  not. 

89.  We  have  spared  no  pains  to  secure  accuracy  in  the  calculation  of  the  figures  entered 
in    cols.    9    to    12  and  9a  to  I2fl,  and  we  believe  that  they  may  be  accepted  as  finally  correct, 


52  THE  INDIAN  CALENDAR. 

but  it  should  be  remembered  that  their  time-equivalent  as  obtained  from  Table  X.  is  only  approxi- 
mate for  the  reason  given  above  [Art.  S2.)  Since  Indian  readers  are  more  familiar  with  tithis 
than  with  lunation-parts,  and  since  the  expression  of  time  in  tithis  may  be  considered  desirable 
by  some  European  workers,  we  have  given  the  times  of  all  the  required  sankrantis  in  tithis  and 
decimals  in  our  columns,  as  well  as  in  lunation-parts ;  but  for  turning  our  figures  into  time-figures 
it  is  easier  to  work  with  lunation-parts  than  with  tithi-parts.  It  may  be  thought  by  some  readers 
that  instead  of  recording  the  phenomena  in  lunation-parts  and  tithis  it  would  have  been 
better  to  have  given  at  once  the  solar  time  corresponding  to  the  moments  of  the  sankrantis 
in  hours  and  minutes.  But  there  are  several  reasons  which  induced  us,  after  careful  consideration, 
to  select  the  plan  we  have  finally  adopted.  First,  great  labour  is  saved  in  calculation ;  for  to 
fix  the  exact  moments  in  solar  time  at  least  five  processes  must  be  gone  through  in  each  case, 
as  shewn  in  our  Example  I.  below  {^Art.  14.8)  It  is  true  that,  by  the  single  process  used  by  us, 
the  time-equivalents  of  the  given  lunation-parts  are  only  approximate,  but  the  lunation-parts  and 
tithis  are  in  themselves  exact.  Secondly,  the  time  shewn  by  our  figures  in  the  case  of  the  mean 
added  months  is  the  same  by  the  Original  Sitrya,  the  Present  Siirya,  and  the  Arya-Siddhanta, 
as  well  as  by  the  Present  Surya-Siddhanta  with  the  b'ija,  whereas,  if  converted  into  solar  time, 
all  of  these  would  vary  and  require  separate  columns.  Thirdly,  the  notation  used  by  us  serves 
one  important  purpose.  It  shews  in  one  simple  figure  the  distance  in  time  of  the  sankrantis 
from  the  beginning  and  end  of  the  added  or  suppressed  month,  and  points  at  a  glance  to  the 
probability  or  otherwise  of  there  being  a  difference  in  the  added  or  suppressed  month  in  the 
case  of  the  use  of  another  authority.  Fourthly,  there  is  a  special  convenience  in  our  method  for 
working  out  such  problems  as  are  noticed  in  the   following  articles. 

90.  Supposing  it  is  desired  to  prove  the  correctness  of  our  added  and  suppressed  months, 
or  to  work  them  out  independently,  this  can  easily  be  done  by  the  following  method :  The 
moment  of  the  Mesha  saiikranti  according  to  the  Surya-Siddhanta  is  given  in  cols.  13,  14  and  15^ 
to  ija  for  all  years  from  A.D.  1 100  to  1900,  and  for  other  years  it  can  be  calculated  by  the 
aid  of  Table  D.  in  Art.  g6  below.  Now  we  wish  to  ascertain  the  moment  of  two  consecutive  new 
moons  connected  with  the  month  in  question,  and  we  proceed  thus.  The  interval  of  time  between 
the  beginning  of  the  solar  year  and  the  beginning  or  end  of  any  solar  month  according  to  the 
Surya-Siddhanta,  is  given  in  Table  III.,  cols.  8  or  9;  and  by  it  we  can  obtain  by  the  rules  in 
Art.  151  below,  the  tithi-index  for  the  moment  of  beginning  and  end  of  the  required  solar  month, 
i.e.,  the  moments  of  the  solar  sankrantis,  whose  position  with  reference  to  the  new  moon  determines 
the  addition  or  suppression  of  the  luni-solar  month.  The  exact  interval  also  in  solar  time  between 
those  respective  sankrantis  and  the  new  moons  (remembering  that  at  new  moon  "/"  =  lo.ooo) 
can  be  calculated  by  the  same  rules.  This  process  will  at  once  shew  whether  the  moon  was 
waning  or  waxing  at  the  preceding  and  succeeding  sankrantis,  and  this  of  course  determines  the 
addition  or  suppression  of  the  month.  The  above,  however,  applies  only  to  the  apparent  or  true 
intercalations  and  suppressions.  For  mean  added  months  the  Sodhya  (2  d.  8  gh.  5  i  p.  15  vi.)  must 
be  added  {see  Art.  26)  to  the  Mesha-sarikranti  time  according  to  the  Arya-Siddhanta  {Tabic  /., 
col.  15),  and  the  result  will  be  the  time  of  the  mean  Mesha  sahkranti.  For  the  required  sub- 
sequent sankrantis  all  that  is  necessary  is  to  add  the  proper  figures  of  duration  as  given  in 
Art.  24,  which  shews  the  mean  length  of  solar  months,  and  to  find  the  "a"  for  the  results  so 
obtained  by  Art.   151.  Then  add  200  to  the  totals  and  the  result  will  be  the  required  tithi-indices. 

91.  It  will  of  course  be  asked  how  our  figures  in  Table  I.  were  obtained,  and  what  guarantee 
we    can  give  for  their  accuracy.     It  is  therefore  desirable  to  explain  these  points.     Our  calcula- 


THE  HINDU  CALENDAR.  53 

tions  for  true  intercalated  and  suppressed  months  were  first  made  according  to  the  method  and  Tables 
published  by  Prof.  Jacobi  {in  the  hid.  Ant.,  Fc/.  .\'/'7/.,/V- /^J /c /liV;  as  corrected  by  the  errata  list 
printed  in  the  same  volume.  We  based  our  calculations  on  his  Tables  i  to  lo,  and  the  method  given  in 
his  example  4  on  pp.  152  —  53,'  but  with  certain  differences,  the  necessity  of  which  must  now  be  explain- 
ed. Prof  Jacobi's  Tables  1  to  4,  which  give  the  dates  of  the  commencement  of  the  solar  months,  and  the 
hour  and  minute,  were  based  on  the  Arya-Siddhanta,  while  Tables  5  to  10  followed  the  Surya- 
Siddhanta,  and  these  two  Siddhantas  differ.  In  con.sequence  several  points  had  to  be  attended  to. 
First,  in  Prof.  Jacobi's  Tables  l  to  4  the  solar  months  are  supposed  to  begin  exactly  at  Ujjain 
mean  sunset,  while  in  fact  they  begin  (as  explained  by  himself  at  p.  \  \'])?X  or  shortly  after  m&Vin 
sunset.  This  state  of  things  is  harmless  as  regards  calculations  made  for  the  purpose  for  which 
the  Professor  designed  and  chiefly  uses  these  Tables,  but  such  is  not  the  case  when  the  task  is 
to  determine  an  intercalary  month,  where  a  mere  fraction  may  make  all  the  difference,  and  where  the 
exact  moment  of  a  safikranti  must  positively  be  ascertained.  Secondly,  the  beginning  of  the 
solar  year,  i.e.,  the  moment  of  the  Mesha-sankranti,  differs  when  calculated  according  to  those 
two  Siddhantas,  as  will  be  seen  by  comparing  cols.  15  to  17  with  cols.  15^  to  \ja  of  our 
Table  1.,  the  difference  being  nil  in  A.D.  496  and  6  gh  23  pa.  41.4  pra.  vi.  in  1900  A.D.  Thirdly, 
even  if  we  suppose  the  year  to  begin  simultaneously  by  both  Siddhantas,  still  the  collective 
duration  of  the  months  from  the  beginning  of  the  year  to  the  end  of  the  required  solar  month  is 
not  the  same,  "  as  will  be  seen  by  comparing  cols.  6  or  7  with  cols.  8  or  9  of  our  Table  III. 
We  have  applied  all  the  corrections  necessitated  by  these  three  differences  to  the  figures  obtained 
from  Prof  Jacobi's  Tables  and  have  given  the  final  results  in  cols.  9  and  11.  We  know  of  no 
independent  test  which  can  be  applied  to  determine  the  accuracy  of  the  results  of  our  calculations 
for  true  added  and  suppressed  months;  but  the  first  calculations  were  made  exceedingly  carefully 
and  were  checked  and  rechecked.  They  were  made  quite  independently  of  any  previously  existing 
lists  of  added  and  suppressed  months,  and  the  results  were  afterwards  compared  with  Prof.  Chhatre's 
list ;  and  whenever  a  difference  appeared  the  calculations  were  completely  re-examined.  In  some 
cases  of  e.xpunged  months  the  difference  between  the  two  lists  is  only  nominal,  but  in  other  cases 
of  difference  it  can  be  said  with  certainty  that  Prof.  Chhatre's  list  is  wrong.  [See  note  to  Art.  46.) 
Moreover,  since  the  greatest  possible  error  in  the  value  of  the  tithi-index  that  can  result  by  use 
of  Prof.  Jacobi's  Table  is  7  {see  his  Table  p.  16^),  whenever  the  tithi-inde.x  for  added  and  sup- 
pressed months  obtained  by  our  computation  fell  within  7  of  10,000,  i.e.,  whenever  the  resulting 
index  was  below  7  or  over  9993,  the  results  were  again  tested  direct  by  the  Siirya-Siddhanta.  ' 
As  regards  mean  intercalations  every  figure  in  our  cols,  ga  to  I2«  was  found  correct  by 
independent  test.  The  months  and  the  times  of  the  sahkrantis  expressed  in  tithi-indices  and 
tithis    were    calculated    by    the    present    Siirya-Siddhanta,    and  the  results  are  the  same  whether 

1  For  finding  the  initial  date  of  the  luni-sohir  years  Prof,  Jacobi's  Tables  I.  to  XI.  were  used,  and  in  the  course  of  the  ealou- 
Utions  it  was  necessary  lo  introdace  a  few  alterations,  and  to  correct  some  misprints  which  had  crept  in  in  addition  lo  those  noted  in 
the  alre-ady  published  eiTata-list.  Thus,  the  eai'liest  date  noted  in  Tables  I.  to  IV.,  being  A.D.  354,  these  Tables  had  to  be  extended 
backwards  by  adding  two  lines  more  of  figures  above  those  already  given.  In  Table  VI.,  as  corrected  by  the  errata,  the  bija  is  taken 
into  account  only  from  A.D  fiOl,  whereas  we  consi  ler  that  it  should  be  introduced  from  A.D.  1501  (see  Art.  21).  In  Table  VI. 
the  century  correction  is  given  for  the  New  (Gregorian)  Style  from  A.D  1600  according  to  the  pi"actice  iu  the  most  part  of  Europe. 
I  have  preferred,  however,  to  introduce  the  New  Style  into  our  Tables  from  Sept.  A.D.  1752  to  suit  English  readers,  and  this  necessi- 
tated an  alteration  in  the  centuiy  data  for  two  centuries      [R.  S.] 

2  It  is  the  same  according  to  Warren,  but  iu  this  respect  he  is  in  error.     (See  note  to  AH.  2i.J 

^  42  calculations  were  thus  made  direct  by  the  Siirija-Sidd/idnta  with  and  without  the  bija,  with  the  satisfactory  result  that 
the  error  in  the  final  figure  of  the  tithi-index  originally  arrived  at  was  generally  only  of  1  or  2  units,  while  in  some  cases  it  was 
nil    It  was  rarely  3,  and  only  once  4.  It  never  e.xceeded  4.  It  may  therefore  he  fairly  assumed  that  our  results  are  accurate.  [S.BD.]

worked    by    that    or    by  the  Original  Surya-Siddkanta,  the  First  Arya-Siddhanta,  or  the  Present 
SuryaSiddhanta  with  the  bija. 

We  think,  therefore,  that  the  list  of  true  added  and  suppressed  months  and  that  of  the 
mean  added   months  as  given  by  us  is  finally  reliable. 

92.  Cols.  /?  to  ij  or  to  17a.  The  solar  year  begins  from  the  moment  of  the  Mesha 
sankranti  and  this  is  taken  as  apparent  and  not  mean.  We  give  the  exact  moment  for  all  years 
from  A.D.  300  to  1900  by  the  Arya-Siddhanta,  and  in  addition  for  years  between  A.D.  1 1 00  and 
1900  by  the  Siirya-Siddhantas  as  well.  {See  also  Art.  g6).  Every  figure  has  been  independently 
tested,  and  found  correct.  The  week-day  and  day  of  the  month  A.D.  as  given  in  cols.  13  and 
14  are  applicable  to  both  the  Siddhantas,  but  particular  attention  must  be  paid  to  the  footnote  in 
Table  I.,  annexed  to  A.D.  11 17 — 18  and  some  other  subsequent  years.  The  entries  in  cols.  15 
and  iSa  for  Indian  reckoning  in  ghatikas  and  palas,  and  in  cols.  17  and  ija  for  hours  and 
minutes,  imply  that  at  the  instant  of  the  sankranti  so  much  time  has  elapsed  since  mean  sunrise 
at  Ujjain  on  the  day  in  question.  Ujjain  mean  sunrise  is  generally  assumed  to  be  6.0  a.m. 

93.  The  alteration  of  week-day  and  day  of  the  month  alluded  to  inthe  footnote  mentioned  in  the 
last  paragraph  (Table  I.,  A.D.  11 17 — 18)  is  due  to  the  difference  resulting  from  calculations  made  by 
the  two  Siddhantas,  the  day  fixed  by  the  Sicrya-Siddhanta  being  sometimes  one  later  than  that  found 
by  the  Arya-Siddhanta.  It  must  be  remembered,  however,  that  the  day  in  question  runs  from  sun- 
rise to  sunrise,  and  therefore  a  moment  of  time  fixed  as  falling  between  midnight  and  sunrise  belongs  to 
the  preceding  day  in  Indian  reckoning,  though  to  the  succeeding  day  by  European  nomenclature.  For 
example,  the  Mesha  sankranti  in  Saka  1039  expired  (A.D.  1 1 1 7)  took  place,  according  to  the  Arya-Sidd- 
hanta on  Friday  23rd  March  at  58  gh.  i  p.  after  Ujjain  mean  sunrise  (23  h.  12  m.  after  sunrise  on  Friday, 
or  5.12  a.m.  on  Saturday  morning,  24th);  while  by  the  5«rj'rt-.SVrt'a'/<'(7;//rt  it  fell  on  Saturday  24th  at 
o  gh.  51  pa.  (=0  h.  20  m.  after  sunrise  or  6.20  a.m.).  This  only  happens  of  course  when  the 
sankranti  according  to  the  Arya-Siddhanta  falls  nearly  at  the  end  of  a  day,  or  near  mean  sunrise. 

94.  In  calculating  the  instant  of  the  apparent  Mesha-saiikrantis,  we  have  taken  the  sodhya 
at  2  d.  8  gh.  51  pa.  15  vipa.  according  to  the  Arya-Siddhanta,  and  2d.  10  gh.  14  pa.  30  vipa. 
according  to  the  Sftrya-Siddhanta.  {See  Art.  26.) 

95.  The  figure  given  in  brackets  after  the  day  and  month  in  cols.  13  and  19  is  the 
number  of  that  day  in  the  P2nglish  common  year,  reckoning  from  January  1st.  For  instance,  75 
against  i6th  March  shows  that  i6th  March  is  the  7Sth  day  from  January  1st  inclusive.  This  figure 
is  called  the  "date  indicator",  or  shortly  {d),  in  the  methods  of  computation  "  B  "  and  "C  "  given 
below  {Part  IV.),  and  is  intended  as  a  guide  with  reference  to  Table  IX.,  in  which  the  collective 
duration  of  days  is  given  in  the  English  common  year. 

96.  The  fixture  of  the  moments  of  the  1600  Mesha-sankrantis  noted  in  this  volume  will 
be  found  advantageous  for  many  purposes,  but  we  have  designed  it  chiefly  to  facilitate  the 
conversion  of  solar  dates  as  they  are  used  in  Bengal  and  Southern  India.  ^  We  have  not  given 
the  moments  of  Mesha-sankrantis  according  to  the  Surya-Siddhanta  prior  to  A.D.  1 1 00,  so  that 
the  Arya-Siddhanta  computation  must  be  used  for  dates  earlier  than  that,  even  those  occurring  in 
Bengal.  There  is  little  danger  in  so  doing,  since  the  difference  between  the  times  of  the  Mesha- 
sankrantis  according  to  the  two  Siddhantas  during  that  period  is  very  slight,  being ////in  A.D.  496, 
and  only  increasing  to  i  h.  6  m.  at  the  most  in  1 100  A.D.  It  is,  however,  advisable  to  give 
a  correction  Table  so  as  to  ensure  accuracy,  and  consequently  we  append  the  Table  which  follows,  by 
which   the  difference  for  any  year  lying  between  A.D.   496  and    1  100  A.D.  can  be  found.     It  is

The  difference  for  (1000—496=:)  504  years  is  (2  gh.  16. 6  pa.  -|-  i  •  i  pa.  =)  2  gh.  17.7  pa.  Adding 
this  to  Friday,  22nd  March,  42gh.  5pa.,  i.e.,  the  time  fixed  by  the  Arya-Siddhanta  {Table  I., 
cols,  i^,  ij),  we  have  44 gh.  22.7  pa.  from  sunrise  on  that  Friday  as  the  actual  time  by  the 
STirya-StddMnla. 

97.  Cols,  ip  to  2^.  The  entries  in  these  columns  enable  us  to  convert  and  verify  Indian 
luni-solar  dates.  They  were  first  calculated,  as  already  stated,  according  to  the  Tables  published 
by  Prof.  Jacobi  in  the  Indian  Antiquary  ^  (Vol.  XVII.).  The  calculations  were  not  only  most 
carefully  made,  but  every  figure  was  found  to  be  correct  by  independent  test.  As  now  finally 
issued,  however,  the  figures  are  those  obtained  from  calculations  direct  from  the  Surya-Siddhanta, 
specially  made  by  Mr.  S.  Balkrishna  D'ikshit.  The  articles  a.  b,  c,  in  cols.  23  to  25  are  very 
important  as  they  form  the  basis  for  all  calculations  of  dates  demanding  an  exact  result.  Their 
meaning  is  fully  described  below  {Art.  102.). 

The  meaning  of  the  phrase  "moon's  age"  (heading  of  cols.  21,  22)  in  the  Nautical 
Almanack  is  the  mean  time  in  days  elapsed  since  the  moon's  conjunction  with  the  sun  {amavasya, 
new  moon).  For  our  purposes  the  moon's  age  is  its  age  in  lunation-parts  and  tithis,  and  these 
have  been  fully  explained  above. 

98.  The  week-day  and  day  of  the  month  A.D.  given  in  cols.  19  and  20  shew  the  civil 
day  on  which  Chaitra  sukla  pratipada  of  each  year,  as  an  apparent  tithi,  ends.  -  The  figures 
given  in  cols.  21  to  25  relate  to  Ujjain  mean  sunrise  on  that  day. 

1    See  note  1  to  Art.  91 

•  We  have  seen  before  (Arts.  45  etc.  above)  how  months  and  tithis  are  sometimes  added  or  expunged.  Now  in  case  of  Chaitra 
sukla  pratipad&  being  current  at  sunrise  on  two  successive  days,  as  sometimes  happens,  the  first  of  these  civil  days,  i.e.,  the  Aiy preeioiu 
to  that  given  by  us,  is  taken  as  the  8rst  day  of  the  Indian  luni-solar  year  (see  Art.  52/  This  does  not,  however,  create  any  con- 
fusion in  our  method  C  since  the  quantities  given  in  cols.  23  to  25  are  correct  for  the  day  and  lime  for  which  they  are  gi  ven ;  while 
as  for  our  methods  A  and  B,  the  day  noted  by  us  is  more  convenient. 


56  THE  INDIAN  CALENDAR. 

99  When  an  intercalary  Chaitra  occurs  by  the  true  system  (Arts,  ./j  etc.  above)  it  must 
be  remembered  that  the  entries  in  cols.  19  to  25  are  for  the  sukla-pratipada  of  the  intercalated^ 
not  the    true,  Chaitra. 

lOO.  The  first  tithi  of  the  year  (Chaitra  sukla  pratipada)  in  Table  I.,  cols.  19  to  25,  is 
taken  as  an  apparent,  not  mean,  tithi,  which  practice  conforms  to  that  of  the  ordinary  native 
panchaiigs.  By  this  system,  as  worked  out  according  to  our  methods  A  and  B,  the  English 
equivalents  of  all  subsequent  tithis  will  be  found  as  often  correct  as  if  the  first  had  been  taken 
as  a  mean  tithi  ; — probably  more  often. 

lOi.  The  figures  given  in  cols.  21  and  22,  except  in  those  cases  where  a  minus  sign  is 
found  prefixed  {e.g.,  Kali  4074  current),  constitute  a  fir.st  approximation  showing  how  much  of 
chaitra  sukla  pratipada  had  expired  on  the  occurrence  of  mean  sunrise  at  Ujjain  on  the  day  given 
in  cols.  19  and  20.  Col.  21  gives  the  expired  lunation-parts  or  tithi-index,  and  col.  22  shews 
the  same  period  in  tithi-parts,  i.e.,  decimals  of  a  tithi.  The  meaning  of  both  of  these  is  explained 
above  (Arts.  So  and  Si).  We  differ  from  the  ordinary  panchahgs  in  one  respect,  viz.,  that  while 
they  give  the  portion  of  the  tithi  which  has  to  run  after  mean  sunrise,  we  have  given,  as  in  some 
ways  more  convenient,  the  portion  already  elapsed  at  sunrise.  Thus,  the  entry  286  in  col.  21 
means  that  286  lunation-parts  of  Chaitra  sukla  isthad  expired  at  mean  sunrise.  The  new  moon 
therefore  took  place  286  lunation-parts  before  mean  sunrise,  and  by  Table  X.,  col.  3,  286 
lunation-parts  are  equal  to  (14  h.  10  m. -{-6  h.  6  m.  =)  20  h.  16  m.  The  new  moon  therefore 
took  place  20  h.  16  m.  before  sunrise,  or  at  9.44  a.m.  on  the  previous  day  by  European  reckoning. 
The  ending-moment  of  Chaitra  sukla  pratipada  can  be  calculated  in  the  same  way,  remembering 
that  there  are  333  lunation-parts  to  a  tithi. 

We  allude  in  the  last  paragraph  to  those  entries  in  cols.  21  and  22  which  stand  with  a 
minus  sign  prefixed.  Their  meaning  is  as  follows: — Just  as  other  tithis  have  sometimes  to  be 
expunged  so  it  occasionally  happens  that  Chaitra  sukla  ist  has  to  be  expunged.  In  other 
words,  the  last  tithi  of  Phalguna,  or  the  tithi  called  amavasya,  is  current  at  sunrise  on  one  civil 
day  and  the  2nd  tithi  of  Chaitra  (Chaitra  sukla  dvitiya)  at  sunrise  on  the  following  civil  day.  In  such 
a  case  the  first  of  these  is  the  civil  day  corresponding  to  Chaitra  sukla  ist;  and  accordingly  we 
give  this  civil  day  in  cols.  19  and  20.  But  since  the  amavasya-tithi  (the  last  tithi  of  Phalguna)  was 
actually  current  at  sunrise  on  that  civU  day  we  give  in  cols.  21  and  22  the  lunation-parts  and  tithi- 
parts  of  the  amavasya-tithi  which  have  to  run  after  sunrise  with  a  minus  sign  prefixed  to  them. 
Thus,  "  — 12"  in  col.  21  means  that  the  tithi-index  at  sunrise  was  10,000 — 12  =  or  9988,  and  that 
the  amavasya-tithi  (Phalguna  Krishna  15  or  30)  (Table  VIII.,  col.  j)  will  end  12  lunation-parts 
after    sunrise,    while  the    next   tithi    will    end    333    lunation-parts  after  that. 

102.  {a,  b.  c,  cols.  2j,  24,  2j).  The  moment  of  any  new  moon,  or  that  moment  in  each 
lunation  when  the  sun  and  moon  are  nearest  together,  in  other  words  when  the  longitudes 
of  the  sun  and  moon  are  equal,  cannot  be  ascertained  without  fixing  the  following  three  elements, — 
{a)  The  eastward  distance  of  the  moon  from  the  sun  in  mean  longitude,  (/;)  the  moon's  mean 
anomaly  (Art.  ij  and  note),  which  is  here  taken  to  be  her  distance  from  her  perigee  in  mean 
longitude,  {c)  the  sun's  mean  anomaly,  or  his  distance  from  his  perigee  in  mean  longitude. 
And  thus  our  "a",  "■b",  "c",  have  the  above  meanings;  "a"  being  expressed  in  io,oooths  of 
a  circle  reduced  by  200.6  for  purposes  of  convenience  of  use,  all  calculations  being  then  additive, 
"/;"  and  "c"  being  given  in  loooths  of  the  circle.  To  take  an  example.  At  Ujjain  mean  sunrise 
on  Chaitra  sukla  pratipada  of  the  Kali  year  3402  (Friday.  8th  March,  A.D.  300),  tlie  mean  long- 
itudes   calculated    direct  from    the    Siirya-Siddhanta    were  as  follow:     The  sun,  349°  22'  27". 92.

103.  Table  II.,  Part  i.,  of  this  table  will  speak  for  itself  {see  also  Art.  ji  above).  In  the 
second  part  is  given,  in  the  first  five  columns,  the  correspondence  of  a  cycle  of  twelve  lunar 
months  of  a  number  of  different  eras  with  the  twelve  lunar  months  of  the  Saka  year  looo,  - 
which  itself  corresponds  exactly  with  Kali  4179,  Chaitradi  Vikrama  1135,  and  Gupta  738.  Cols. 
8  to  13  give  a  similar  concurrence  of  months  of  the  solar  year  Saka  lOOO.  The  concurrence 
of  parts  of  solar  months  and  of  parts  of  the  European  months  with  the  luni-solar  months  is 
given  in  cols.  6  and  7,  and  of  the  same  parts  with  the  solar  months  in  cols.  14  and  15.  Thu.s, 
the  luni-solar  amanta  month  Ashadha  of  the  Chaitradi  Saka  year  1000  corresponds  with  amanta 
Ashadha  of  Kali  4179,  of  Chaitradi  Vikrama  1135,  and  of  the  Gupta  era  758;  of  the 
Ashadhadi  Vikrama  year  11 35,  and  of  the  Chedi  or  Kalachuri  828;  of  the  Karttikadi  Vikrama 
year  11 34,  and  of  the  Nevar  year  198.  Parts  of  the  solar  months  Mithuna  and  Karka,  and 
parts    of  June    and   July    of    1077     A.D.    correspond    with  it;  in  some  years  parts  of  the  other

The  above  figures  were  submitted  by  me  to  Dr.  Downing  of  ihe  Nautical  Almanack  office,  with  a  request  that  he  would  test 
the  results  by  scientific  European  methods.  In  reply  he  gave  me  the  following  quantities,  for  the  sun  from  Leven'ier's  Tables,  and 
and  for  the  moon  from  Hansen's  Tables  (for  the  epoch  A.D.  300,  March  8th,  6  am.,  for  the  meridian  of  Ujjain).  Mean  long  of

also  verified  the  statement  that  the  sunrise  on  the  morning  of  March  8th  was  that  immediately  following  new  moon.  The  diflerence 
in  result  is  partly  caused  by  the  fact  that  Leverrier's  and  Hansen's  longitudes  are  tropical,  and  those  of  the  S«>y«-St(/rMi/nfe  sidereal. 
Comparing  the  two  results  we  find  a  difference  of  0°  35' 40"-9  in  "a".  5°  24' 49"-69  in  "b",  0°  11' 15"-87  in  "c".  The  closeness 
of  the  results  obtained  from  the  use  of  (1)  purely  Hindu  (2)  purely  European  methods  is  remarkable.  Our  Tables  being  for  Indian 
documents  and  inscriptions  we  of  course  work  by  the  former,     [R.  S.] 

4  This  year  Saka  1000  is  chosen  for  convenience  of  addition  or  snbstraction  when  ealcu.ating  other  years,  and  therefore  wc 
have  not  taken  into  account  the  fact  that  S  1000  was  really  an  intercalary  year,  having  'joth  an  Adhika  Jyeshtha  and  a  Nija 
Jyeshtha  month.  That  peculiarity  affects  only  that  one  year  and  not  the  concurrence  of  other  months  of  previous  or  subsequent 
veal's  in  other  eras. 


58  THE  INDIAN  CAIENDAR. 

two  Christian  months  noted  in  col.  7  will  correspond  with  it.  In  the  year  Saka  1000,  taken  as 
a  Meshadi  solar  year,  the  month  Siriiha  corresponds  with  the  Bengali  Bhadrapada  and  the  Tamil 
Avani  of  the  Meshadi  Kali  4179,  and  Meshadi  Vikrama  1 135  ;  with  Avani  of  the  Sirhhadi  Tinnevelly 
year  253;  with  Chingam  of  the  South  Malayalam  Siitihadi  KoUam  andu  253,  and  of  the  North 
Malayajani  Kanyadi  Kollam  andu  252.  Parts  of  the  lunar  months  .Sravana  and  Bhadrapada 
correspond  with  it,  as  well  as  parts  of  July  and  August  of  the  European  year  1077  A. D ;  in  some 
years  parts  of  August  and  September  will  correspond  with  it. 

All  the  years  in  this  Table  are  current    years,  and  all  the  lunar  months  are  amanta. 

It  will  be  noticed  that  the  Tuju  names  of  lunar  months  and  the  Tamil  and  Tinnevelly  names 
of  solar  months  are  corruptions  of  the  original  Sanskrit  names  of  lunar  months ;  while  the  north 
and  south  Malayajam  names  of  solar  months  are  corruptions  of  the  original  Sanskrit  sign-names. 
Corruptions  differing  from  these  are  likely  to  be  found  in  use  in  many  parts  of  India.  In  the 
Tamil  Districts  and  the  district  of  Tinnevelly  the  solar  sign-names  are  also  in  use  in  some  places. 

104.  Table  II..  Part  iii.  This  portion  of  the  Table,  when  read  with  the  notes  printed 
below  would  seem  to  be  simple  and  easy  to  be  understood,  but  to  make  it  still  clearer  we  give 
the  following  rules:  — 

I.  Rule  for  turning  into  a  Chaitradi  or  Meshadi  year  (for  example,  into  a  luni-solar  Saka,  or 
solar  Saka,  year)  a  year  of  another  era,  whether  earlier  or  later,  which  is  non-Chaitradi  or  non- 
Meshadi. 

(rt)  For  an  earlier  era.  When  the  given  date  falls  between  the  first  moment  of  Chaitra 
or  Mesha  and  the  first  moment  of  the  month  in  which,  as  shewn  by  the  heading,  the  year  of 
the  given  earlier  era  begins,  subtract  from  the  given  year  the  first,  otherwise  the  second,  of  the 
double  figures  given  under  the  heading  of  the  earlier  era  along  the  line  of  the  year  O  of  the 
required  Chaitradi  or  Meshadi  era  {e.g.,  the  Saka). 

Examples.  (l)  To  turn  Vaisakha  Sukla  ist  of  the  Ashadhadi  Vikrama  year  1837,  or 
Sravana  sukla  ist  of  the  Karttikadi  Vikrama  year  1837  '"to  corresponding  Saka  reckoning.  The 
year  is  (1837 — 134=)  1703  Saka.  The  day  and  month  are  the  same  in  each  case.  (2)  To 
turn  Magha  sukla  ist  of  the  Karttikadi  Vikrama  samvat  1838  into  the  corresponding  Saka  date. 
The  year  is  (1838  — 135  =)  1703  Saka.  The  day  and  month  are  the  same.  (3)  Given  1st  December, 
1822  A.D.  The  year  is  (1822  — 77  =)  1745  Saka  current.  (4)  Given  2nd  January,  1823  A.D. 
The  year  is  (1823 — 78=)  1745   Saka  current. 

(b)  For  a  later  era.  When  the  given  day  falls  between  the  first  moment  of  Chaitra  or 
Mesha  and  the  first  moment  of  the  month  in  which,  as  .shewn  by  the  heading,  the  later  era  begins, 
add  to  the  number  of  the  given  year  the  figure  in  the  Table  under  the  heading  of  tlie  required 
Chaitradi  or  Meshadi  era  along  the  line  of  the  year  01  of  the  given  later  era.  In  the  reverse 
case  add  that  number  reduced  by  one. 

Examples,  (i)  To  turn  the  ist  day  of  Mithuna  1061  of  the  South  MalayaUm  Kollam 
Andu  into  the  corresponding  Saka  date.  The  year  is  (1061  -|-  748;^)  Saka  1809  current.  The 
day  and  month  are  the  same.  (2)  To  turn  the  ist  day  of  Makara  1062  of  the  South  Malayalam 
Kollum  Andu  into  the  corresponding  Saka  date.  The  year  is  (1062  -|-  747=)  1809  Saka  current. 
The  day  and  month  are  the  same. 

II.  Rule  for  turning  a  Chaitradi  or  Meshadi  (<.^'-.,  a  Saka)  year  into  a  non-Chaitradi  or 
non-Meshadi  year  of  an  earlier  or  later  era. 

(a)  For  an  earlier  era.  When  the  given  day  falls  between  the  first  moment  of  Chaitra 
or  Mesha  and  the  first  moment  of  the  month  in  which,  as  shown  by  the  heading,  the  year  of  the 


THE  HINDU  CALENDAR.  59 

earlier  era  begins,  add  to  the  given  Chaitradi  or  Mcshatli  year  the  first,  otherwise  the  second, 
of  the  double  figures  given  under  the  heading  of  the  earlier  era  along  the  line  of  the  year  o  of 
the  Chaitradi  or  Meshadi  era  given. 

Examples,  (i)  To  turn  Bhadrapada  krishna  30th  of  the  Saka  year  1699  into  the  corres- 
ponding Karttikadi  Vikrama  year.  The  year  is  (1699  +  134=)  >'*533  of  the  Karttikadi  Vikrama 
era.  The  day  and  month  are  the  same.  (2)  To  turn  the  same  Bhadrapada  krishna  30th,  Saka 
1699,  into  the  corresponding  Ashadhadi  Vikrama  year.  The  year  is  (1699+  135=)  1834  of  the 
Ashadhadi  Vikrama  era.     The  day  and  month  are  the  same. 

{b)  For  a  later  era.  When  the  given  day  falls  between  the  first  moment  of  Chaitra  or  Mesha  and 
the  first  moment  of  the  month  in  which,  as  shown  by  the  heading,  the  later  era  begins,  subtract  from 
the  given  year  the  number  under  the  heading  of  the  given  Chaitradi  or  Meshadi  era  along  the  line 
of  the  year  o/i   of  the  given  later  era;    in  the  reverse  case  subtract  that  number  reduced  by  one. 

Examples,  (i)  To  turn  the  20th  day  of  Sirhha  Saka  1727  current  into  the  corresponding 
North  Malayalam  Kollam  Andu  date.  The  day  and  month  are  the  same.  The  era  is  a  Kanyadi 
era,  and  therefore  the  required  year  is  (1727—748  — )  979  of  the  required  era.  (2)  To  turn 
the  20th  day  of  Sirhha  Saka  1727  current  into  the  corresponding  South  Malayalam  (Tinnevelly) 
Kollam  Andu  date.  The  day  and  month  are  the  same.  The  era  is  Siriihadi,  and  therefore  the 
required  year  is  (1727 — 747 —)  980  of  the  required  era. 

Ill  Rule  for  turning  a  year  of  one  Chaitradi  or  Meshadi  era  into  one  of  another  Chai- 
tradi or  Meshadi  era.     This  is  obviously  so  simple  that  no  explanations  or  examples  are  required. 

IV.  Rule  for  turning  a  year  of  a  non-Chaitradi  or  non-Meshadi  era  into  one  of  another 
year  equally  non-Chaitradi  or  non-Meshadi  These  are  not  required  for  our  methods,  but  if  any 
reader  is  curious  he  can  easily  do  it  for  himself 

This  Table  must  be   used  for  all  our  three  methods  of  conversion  of  dates. 

105.  Table  III. — The  numbers  given  in  columns  ^a  and  10  are  intended  for  use  when  cal- 
culation is  made  approximately  by  means  of  our  method  "  B "  [Arts,  ijj,  138). 

It  will  be  observed  that  the  number  of  days  in  lunar  months  given  in  col.  3^  is  alternately 
30  and  29 ;  but  such  is  not  always  the  case  in  actual  fact.  In  all  the  twelve  months  it  occurs 
that  the  number  of  days  is  sometimes  29  and  sometimes  30.  Thus  Bhadrapada  has  by  our  Table 
29  days,  whereas  it  will  be  seen  from  the  parichaiig  extract  printed  in  Art.  30  above  that  in 
A.D.  1894  (Saka  18 16  expired)  it  had  30  days. 

The  numbers  given  in  col.  10  also  are  only  approximate,  as  will  be  seen  by  comparing 
them  with  those  given  in  cols.  6  to  9. 

Thus  all  calculations  made  by  use  of  cols.  3«  and  10  will  be  sometimes  wrong  by  a  day. 
This  is  unavoidable,  since  the  condition  of  things  changes  every  year,  so  that  no  single  Table  can 
be  positively  accurate  in  this  respect ;  but,  other  elements  of  the  date  being  certain,  calculations  so 
made  will  only  be  wrong  by  one  day,  and  if  the  week-day  is  given  in  the  document  or  inscription 
concerned  the  date  may  be  fi.xed  with  a  fair  pretence  to  accuracy.  If  entire  accuracy  is  demanded, 
our  method  "  C  "  must  be  followed.      (See  Arts.  2  and  126.) 

The  details  in  cols.  3,  and  6  to  9,  are  exactly  accurate  to  the  unit  of  a  pala,  or  24  seconds. 
The  figure  in  brackets,  or  week-day  index  {id),  is  the  remainder  after  casting  out  sevens  from 
the  number  of  days;  thus,  casting  out  sevens  from  30  the  remainder  is  2,  and  this  is  the  {u<) 
for  30.  To  guard  against  mistakes  it  may  be  mentioned  that  the  figure  "  2  "  does  not  of  course 
mean  that  the  Mesha  or  Vrishabha  sankranti  always  takes  place  on  (2)  Monday. 

106.  Tables   IV.  atid  V.     These  tables  give  the  value  of  (a-)  (week-day)  and  [a)  [b)  and 


6o  THE  INDIAN  CALENDAR. 

{c)  for  any  required  number  of  civil  days,  hours,  and  minutes,  according  to  the  Surya  Siddhanta.  It  will  be 
seen  that  the  figures  given  in  these  Tables  are  calculated  by  the  value  for  one  day  given  in  Art.  102. 
Table  IV.  is  Prof.  Jacobi's /W/V?«  ^«/;(7«(?;^' (Vol.  XVII.)  Table  7,  slightly  modified  to  suit  our 
purposes;  the  days  being  run  on  instead  of  being  divided  into  months,  and  the  figures  being 
given  for  the  end  of  each  period  of  24  hours,  instead  of  at  its  commencement.  Table  V.  is 
Prof.  Jacobi's  Table  8. 

107.  Tables  VI.  and  VII.  These  are  Prof.  Jacobi's  Tables  9  and  10  re-arranged.  It 
will  be  well  that  their  meaning  and  use  should  be  understood  before  the  reader  undertakes  com- 
putations according  to  our  method  "C".  It  will  be  observed  that  the  centre  column  of  each  column- 
triplet  gives  a  figure  constituting  the  equation  for  each  figure  of  the  argument  from  o  to  looo, 
the  centre  figure  corresponding  to  either  of  the  figures  to  right  or  left.  These  last  are  given 
only  in  periods  of  10  for  convenience,  an  auxiliary  Table  being  added  to  enable  the  proper  equation 
to  be  determined  for  all  arguments.  Table  VI.  gives  the  lunar  equation  of  the  centre.  Table  VII.  the 
solar  equation  of  the  centre.  {Art.  75  note  3  above).  The  argument-figures  are  expressed  in  loooths 
of  the  circle,  while  the  equation-figures  are  expressed  in  io,oooths  to  correspond  with  the  figures 
of  our  "«,"  to  which  they  have  to  be  added.  Our  [b)  and  [c]  give  the  mean  anomaly  of  the  moon 
and  sun  for  any  moment,  (a)  being  the  mean  longitudinal  distance  of  the  moon  from  the  sun. 
To  convert  this  last  (a)  into  true  longitudinal  distance  the  equation  of  the  centre  for  both  moon 
and  sun  must  be  discovered  and  applied  to  (a)  and  these  Tables  give  the  requisite  quantities.  The 
case  may  perhaps  be  better  understood  if  more  simply  explained.  The  moon  and  earth  are 
constantly  in  motion  in  their  orbits,  and  for  calculation  of  a  tithi  we  have  to  ascertain  their 
relative  positions  with  regard  to  the  sun.  Now  supposing  a  railway  train  runs  from  one  station 
to  another  twenty  miles  off  in  an  hour.  The  average  rate  of  running  will  be  twenty  miles  an 
hour,  but  the  actual  speed  will  vary,  being  slower  at  starting  and  stopping  than  in  the  middle. 
Thus  at  the  end  of  the  first  quarter  of  an  hour  it  will  not  be  quite  five  miles  from  the  start,  but 
some  little  distance  short  of  this,  say  m  yards.  This  distance  is  made  up  as  full  speed  is  acquired, 
and  after  three-quarters  of  an  hour  the  train  will  be  rather  more  than  1 5  miles  from  the  start, 
since  the  speed  will  be  slackened  in  approaching  the  station, — say  w  yards  more  than  the  i  5  miles. 
These  distances  of  m  yards  and  n  yards,  the  one  in  defect  and  the  other  in  e.xcess,  correspond 
to  the  "Equation  of  the  Centre"  in  planetary  motion.  The  planetary  motions  are  not  uniform 
and  a  planet  is  thus  sometimes  behind,  sometimes  in  front  of,  its  mean  or  average  place.  To 
get  the  true  longitude  we  must  apply  to  the  mean  longitude  the  equation  of  the  centre.  And  this  last 
for  both  sun  (or  earth)  and  moon  is  what  we  give  in  these  two  Tables.  All  the  requisite  data 
for  calculating  the  mean  anomalies  of  the  sun  and  moon,  and  the  equations  of  the  centre  for 
each  planet,  are  given  in  the  Indian  Siddliantas  and  Karaitas,  the  details  being  obtained  from 
actual  observation ;  and  since  our  Tables  generally  are  worked  according  to  the  Siirya  Sidd/iattto, 
we  have  given  in  Tables  VI.  and  VII.  the  equations  of  the  centre  by  that  authority. 

Thus,  the  Tables  enable  us  to  ascertain  {a)  the  mean  distance  of  moon  from  sun  at  any 
moment,  {b)  the  correction  for  the  moon's  true  (or  apparent)  place  with  reference  to  the  earth, 
and  {c)  the  correction  for  the  earth's  true  (or  apparent)  place  with  reference  to  the  sun  ;  and  with  these 
corrections  applied  to  the  (a)  we  have  the  true(or  apparent)  distance  of  the  moon  from  the  sun,  which 
marks  the  occurrence  of  the  true  (or  apparent)  tithi ;  and  this  result  is  our  tithi-index,  or  (/).  From 
this  tithi-index  (/i  the  tithi  current  at  any  given  moment  is  found  from  Table  VIII..  and  the  time 
equivalent  is  found  by  Table  X.  Full  explanation  for  actual  work  is  given  in  Part  IV.  below 
(.Arts.  139—160). 


THE  HfNDU  CALENDAR.  6i 

The  method   for  calculating  a  nakshatia  or  yoga  is  explained  in  Art.    133. 

108.  Since  the  planet's  true  motion  is  sometimes  greater  and  sometimes  less  than  its 
mean  motion  it  follows  that  the  two  equations  of  the  centre  found  from  {b)  and  (r)  by  our  Tables 
VI.  and  VII.  have  sometimes  to  be  added  to  and  sometimes  subtracted  from  the  mean  longitu- 
dinal distance  [a],  if  it  is  required  to  find  the  true  (or  apparent)  longitudinal  distance  (/).  Hut  to 
simplify  calculation  it  is  advisable  to  eliminate  this  inconvenient  element,  and  to  prepare  the 
Tables  so  that  the  sum  to  be  worked  may  always  be  one  of  addition.  Now  it  is  clear  that  this 
can  be  done  by  increasing  every  figure  of  each  equation  by  its  largest  amount,  and  decreasing 
the  figure  [a]  by  the  sum  of  the  largest  amount  of  both,  and  this  is  what  has  been  done  in  the 
Tables.  According  to  the  Siirya  Siddhanta  the  greatest  possible  lunar  equation  of  the  centre 
is  5°  2'  47".  17  (=  .0140,2  in  our  tithi-inde.x  computation),  and  the  greatest  possible  solar  equation 
of  the  centre  is  2"  10'  32".35  (=  .0060,4).  But  the  solar  equation  of  the  centre,  or  the  equation 
for  the  earth,  must  be  introduced  into  the  figure  representing  the  distance  of  the  moon  from  the 
sun  with  reversed  sign,  because  a  positive  correction  to  the  earth's  longitude  implies  a  negative 
correction  to  the  distance  of  moon  from  sun.     This  will  be  clear  from  a  diagram. 

^'     M' ■ 


JX \p 


s*- 

Let  S  be  the  sun,  M  the  moon,  E  the  earth,  I'  the  direction  of  perigee.  Then  the  angle 
SEM  represents  the  distance  of  moon  from  sun.  But  if  we  add  a  positive  correction  to  (i.e., 
increase)  the  earth's  longitude  PSE  and  make  it  PSE'  (greater  than  PSE  by  ESE')  we  thereby  decrease 
the  angle  SEM  to  SE'M',  and  we  decrease  it  by  exactly  the  same  amount,  since  the  angle 
SEM  =r  /  SE'M'  +  /  ESE',  as  may  be  seen  if  we  draw  the  line  EX  parallel  to  E'S;  for 
the  angle  SEX  =   /   ESE'  by  Euclid. 

Every  figure  of  each  equation  is  thus  increased  in  our  Tables  VI.  and  VII.  by  its  greatest 
value,  i.e.,  that  of  the  moon  by  140,2  and  that  of  the  sun  by  60,4,  and  every  figure  of  (a)  is 
decreased  by  the  sum  of  both,  or  (140,2  +  60,4  =)  200,6. ' 

In  conclusion,  Table  VI.  yields  the  lunar  equation  of  the  centre  calculated  by  the  Siirya 
Siddhanta,  turned  into  io,oooths  of  a  circle,  and  increased  by  140.2;  and  Table  VII.  yields  the 
solar  equation  of  the  centre  calculated  by  the  Siirya  Siddhanta,  with  sign  reversed,  converted  into 
lO.OOOths  of  a  circle,  and  increased  by  60.4.^  This  explains  why  for  argument  o  the  equation 
given  is  lunar  140  and  solar  60.  If  there  were  no  such  alteration  made  the  lunar  equation  for 
Arg.  o  would  be  ±  o,  for  Arg.  250  (or  90")  f  140,  for  Arg.  500  (180")  ±  O,  and  for  Arg.  750  (or  270°) 
— 140,  and  so  on. 

109.     The  lunar  and  solar  equations  of  the  centre  for  every  degree  of  anomaly  are  given 

1     Prof.  Jacobi  gives  this  as  200.5,  but  after  most  careful  calculation  I  find  it  to  be  200  6.     [S    B    D.]

USE   OF   THE  TABLES. 

118.  The  Tables  now  published  may  be  used  for  several  purposes,  of  which  some  are 
enumerated  below. 

(l)  For  finding  the  year  and  month  of  the  Christian  or  any  Indian  era  corresponding  to 
a  given  year  and  month  in  any  of  the  eras  under  consideration.

(2)  For  finding  the  samvatsara  of  the  sixty-year  cycle  of  Jupiter,  whether  in  tiie  southern 
(luni-solar)  or  northern  (mean-sign)  scheme,  and  of  the  twelve-year  cycle  of  Jupiter,  corresponding 
to  the  beginning  of  a  solar  (Meshadi)  year,  or  for  any  day  of  such  a  year. 

(3)  For  finding  the  added  or  suppressed  months,  if  any.  in  any  year. 
But  the  chief  and  most  important  use  of  them  are; 

(4)  The  conversion  of  any  Indian  date — luni-solar  (tithi)  or  solar — into  the  corresponding 
date  A.D.  and  vice  versa,  from  A.D.  300  to   1900,  and  finding  the  week-day  of  any  such  date; 

(5)  Finding  the  karana.  nakshatra.  and  yoga  for  any  moment  of  any  Indian  or  European 
date,  and  thereby  verifying  any  given   Indian  date; 

(6)  Turning  a  Hindu  solar  date  into  a  luni-solar  date,  and  vice  versa. 

(7)  Conversion  of  a  Muhammadan  Hijra  date  into  the  corresponding  date  A.D.,  and  vice 
versa.     This  is  fully  explained  in  Part  V.  below. 

119.  (i)  For  tlie  first  purpose  Table  I.,  cols,  i  to  5.  or  Table  II.,  must  be  used,  with 
the  explanation  given  in  Part  III.  above.  For  eras  not  noted  in  these  two  Tables  see  the  description 
of  them  given  in  Art.  71.  In  the  case  of  obscure  eras  whose  exact  nature  is  not  yet  well 
known,  the  results  will  only  be  approximate. 

(N.B. — It  will  be  observed  that  in  Table  II.,  Part  ii.,  portions  of  two  solar  months  or  of  four  ' 
Christian  months  are  made  to  correspond  to  a  lunar  month  and  vice  versa,  and  therefore  that 
if  this  Table  only  be  used  the  results  may  not  be  exact). 

The  following  note,  though  not  yielding  very  accurate  results,  will  be  found  useful  for 
finding  tlie  corresponding  parts  of  lunar  and  solar  months.  The  tithi  corresponding  to  the  Mesha- 
saiikranti  can  be  approximately  -  found  by  comparing  its  English  date  (Table  I.,  col.  13)  with 
that  of  the  luni-solar  Chaitra  sukla  ist  (Table  I.,  col.  19);  generally  the  sankrantis  from  Vnshabha 
to  Tula  fall  in  successive  lunar  months,  either  one  or  two  tithis  later  than  the  given  one.  Tula 
falls  about  10  tithis  later  in  the  month  than  Mesha;  and  the  sankrantis  from  Vrischika  to  Mina 
generally  fall  on  the  same  tithi  as  that  of  Tula.  Thus,  if  the  Mesha  sankranti  falls  on  sukla 
paiichami  (5th)  the  Vrishabha  sankranti  will  fall  on  sukla  shasthi  (6th)  or  saptami  (7th),  the 
Mithuna  saiikranti  on  sukla  ashtami   (8th)  or  navami  (9th).  and  so  on. 

120.  (2)  For  the  samvatsara  of  the  southern  sixty-year  cycle  see  col.  6  of  Table  I.,  or 
calculate  it  by  the  rule  given  in  Art.  62.  For  that  of  the  si.xty-year  cycle  of  Jupiter  of  the  mean  sign 
system,  according  to  Siirya  Siddhaiita  calculations,  current  at  the  beginning  of  the  solar  year, /.<>., 
at  the  true  (or  apparent)  Mesha  sankranti,  see  col.  7  of  Table  I.;  and  for  that  current  on  any  day  in 
the  year  according  to  either  the  Siirya  or  Arya  Siddhantas,  use  the  rules  in  Art.  59.  To  find 
the  samvatsara  of  the  twelve-year  cycle  of  the  mean-sign  system  corresponding  to  that  of  the 
Jupiter  sixty-year  cycle  see  Table  XII. 

F2I.  (2)  To  find  the  added  or  suppressed  month  according  to  the  Siirya  Siddhaiita  by 
the  true  (apparent)  system  see  col.  8  of  Table  I.  throughout;  and  for  an  added  month  of  the 
mean  system  according  to  either  the  Original  or  Present  Siirya  Siddhantas,  or  by  the  Arya 
Siddhanta,  see  col.  8«  of  Table  I.  for  any  year  from  A.  D.  300  to  1 100. 

122.  (4)  For  conversion  of  an  Itidian  date  into  a  date  A.D.  and  vice  versa,  and  to  find 
the  week  day  of  any  given  date,  we  give  below  three  methods,  with  rules  and  examples 
for  work. 

123.  The    first  method  A  (Arts.    135,    136),  the  invention  of  Mr.  T.  Lakshmiah  Naidu  of 

1  Of  course  only  two  in  a  single  case,  but  four  during  the  entire  period  of  1600  years  covered  by  our  Tables. 

2  The  exact  titbi  can  be  calcalated  by  Arts.  149  and  151. 


64  THE  INDIAN  CALENDAR. 

Madras,  is  a  method  for  obtaining  approximate  results  without  any  calculation  by  the  careful 
use  of  mere  eye-tables,  viz.,  Tables  XIV.  and  XV.  These,  with  the  proper  use  of  Table  I.,  are 
alone  necessary.  But  it  must  never  be  forgotten  that  this  result  may  differ  by  one,  or  at  the 
utmost  two,  days  from  the  true  one,  and  that  it  is  not  safe  to  trust  to  them  unless  the  era  and 
bases  of  calculation  of  the  given  date  are  clearly  known.     [See  Art.  126  below.) 

124.  By  our  second  method  B  (Arts.  137,  138),  which  follows  the  system  established  by 
Mr.  W.  S.  Krishnasvami  Naidu  of  Madras,  author  of  "South  Indian  Chrofwlogical  Tables'" 
(Madras  1889),  and  which  is  intended  to  enable  an  approximation  to  be  made  by  a  very  simple 
calculation,  a  generally  accurate  correspondence  of  dates  can  be  obtained  by  the  use  of  Tables  I., 
III.,  and  IX.  The  calculation  is  so  easy  that  it  can  be  done  in  the  head  after  a  little  practice. 
It  is  liable  to  precisely  the  same  inaccuracies  as  method  A,  neither  more  nor  less. 

125.  Tables  II.   and  III.  will  also  be  sometimes  required  for  both  these  methods. 

126.  The  result  obtained  by  either  of  these  methods  will  thus  be  correct  to  within  one 
or  two  days,  and  as  often  as  not  will  be  found  to  be  quite  correct;  but  there  must  always  be 
an  element  of  uncertainty  connected  with  their  use.  If,  however,  the  era  and  original  bases  of 
calculation  of  the  given  date  are  certainly  known,  the  result  arrived  at  from  the  use  of  these 
eye-Tables  may  be  corrected  by  the  week-day  if  that  has  been  stated;  since  the  day  of  the  month 
and  year  will  not  be  wrong  by  more  than  a  day,  or  two  at  the  most,  and  the  day  of  the 
week  will  determine  the  corresponding  civil  day.  Suppose,  for  instance,  that  the  given 
Hindu  date  is  Wednesday,  Vaisakha  sukla  Sth,  and  it  is  found  by  method  A  or  method  B 
that  the  corresponding  day  according  to  European  reckoning  fell  on  a  Thursday,  it  may  be 
assumed,  presuming  that  all  other  calculations  for  the  year  and  month  have  been  correctly  made, 
that  the  civil  date  A.D.  corresponding  to  the  Wednesday  is  the  real  equivalentof  Vaisaklia  sukla 
5th.  But  these  rough  methods  should  never  be  trusted  to  in  important  cases.  For  a  specimen 
of   a    date    where   the    bases    of  calculation  are  not  known  see  example  xxv.,  Art.    160  below. 

127.  When  Tables  XIV.  and  XV.  are  once  understood  (and  they  are  perfectly  simple)  it 
will  probably  be  found  advisable  to  use  method  A  in  preference  to  method  B. 

128.  As  already  stated,  our  method''  C"  enables  the  conversion  of  dates  to  be  made  with  precise 
accuracy;  the  exact  moments  of  the  beginning  and  ending  of  every  tithi  can  be  ascertained ;  and 
the    corresponding    date  is  obtained,  simultaneously  with  the  week-day,  in  the  required  reckoning. 

129.  The  weekday  for  any  European  date  can  be  found  independently  by  Table  XIII.. 
which  was  supplied  by  Dr.  Burgess. 

131  '  (5)  ^0  find  the  karana.  nakshatra,  or  yoga  citrroit  on  any  Indian  or  European 
date;  and  to  verify  any  Indian  date. 

Method  C  includes  calculations  for  the  karana.  nakshatra  and  yoga  current  at  any  given 
moment  of  any  given  day,  as  well  as  the  instants  of  their  beginnings  and  endings;  but  for  this 
purpose,  if  the  given  date  is  other  than  a  tithi  or  a  European  date,  it  must  be  first  turned  into 
one  or  the  other  according  to  our  rules  (Art.  /jp  to  IJ2.J 

132.  It  is  impossible,  of  course,  to  verify  any  tithi  or  solar  date  unless  the  week-day,  nakshatra. 
karana,  or  yoga,  or  more  than  one  of  these,  is  also  given ;  but  when  this  requirement  is  satisfied 
our  method  C  will  afford  proof  as  to  the  correctness  of  the  date.  To  verify  a  solar  date  it  must 
first  be  turned  into  a  tithi  or  European  date.  {Art.  13.^  or  14^.) 

133.  For  an  explanation  of  the  method  of  calculating  tithis  and  half-tithis  (karanas) 
see    Art.     107    above.      Our    method    of    calculation    for    nakshatras    and    yogas  requires  a  little 

'     Art.   l.'id  hns  been  "milled 


TflE  HINDU  CALENDAR.  65 

more  explanation.  The  moon's  nakshatra  (Arts.  8,  38)  is  found  from  lier  apparent  longi- 
tude. By  our  method  C  we  shew  how  to  find  /  (=  the  difference  of  the  apparent  longitudes 
of  sun  and  moon),  and  equation  '  c  (=:  the  solar  equation  of  the  centre)  for  any  given  moment. 
To  obtain  (/)  the  sun's  apparent  longitude  is  subtracted  from  that  of  the  moon,  so  that  if  we  add 
the  sun's  apparent  longitude  to  (/)  we  shall  have  the  moon's  apparent  longitude.  Our  (c)  (Table  1., 
last  column)  is  the  sun's  mean  anomaly,  being  the  mean  sun's  distance  from  his  perigee.  If  we 
add  the  longitude  of  the  sun's  perigee  to  [c],  we  have  the  sun's  mean  longitude,  and  if  we  apply 
to  this  the  solar  equation  of  tlie  centre  (+  or — )  we  have  the  sun's  apparent  longitude."  According 
to  the  Siirya-Siddkaiita  the  sun's  perigee  has  only  a  very  slight  motion,  amounting  to  3'  5".8  in 
1600  years.  Its  longitude  for  A.D.  1 100,  the  middle  of  the  period  covered  by  our  Tables,  was 
257°  l5'S5"-7  or  .7146,3  of  a  circle,  and  therefore  this  may  be  taken  as  a  constant  for  all  the 
years  covered  by  our  Tables. 

Now,  true  or  apparant  sun  =  mean  sun  +  equation  of  centre.  But  we  have  not  tabulated 
in  Table  VII.,  col.  2,  the  exact  equation  of  the  centre  ;  we  have  tabulated  a  quantity  (say  x) 
the  value  of  which  is  expressed  thus ; — 

x  —  60,4 — equation  of  centre  {see  Art.  /08). 

So  that  equation  of  centre  —  60.4 — x. 

Hence,  apparent  sun  =  mean  sun  +  60,4 — x. 

But  mean  sun  =  r  +  perigee,  (which  is  7146,3   in  tithi-indices.) 
=  f  +  7146,3- 

Hence  apparent  sun  (which  we  call  j)  =:  f -|- 7146,3  +60,4 — x. 

=  (•  +  7206,7 — X ;    or,    say,  =  f  +  7207 — x 
where  x  is,  as  stated,  the  quantity  tabulated  in  col.  2,  Table  VII. 

((•)  is  expressed  in  lOOOths,  while  7207  and  the  solar  equation  in  Table  VII.  are  given  in 
looooths  of  the  circle,  and  therefore  we  must  multiply  [c)  by  10.  /  +  j  =  apparent  moon  =  « (the 
index  of  a  nakshatra.)     This  explains  the  rule  given  below  for  work  (Art.  ij6). 

For  a  yoga,  the  addition  of  the  apparent  longitude  of  the  sun  [s)  and  moon  (;/)  is  required. 
s+  «=/  (the  index  of  a  yoga.)     And  so  the  rule  in  Art.    159. 

134.  (6)      To  turn  a  solar  date  into  its  corresponding  liini-solar  date  and  vice  versa. 

First  turn  the  given  date  into  its  European  equivalent  by  either  of  our  three  methods  and 
then  turn  it  into  the  required  one.  The  problem  can  be  worked  direct  by  anyone  who  has 
thoroughly  grasped  the  principle  of  these  methods. 

Method  A. 

APPROXIMATE  COMPUTATION   OF  DATES  BY  USE  OF  THE  EYE- TABLE. 

Thi3  is  the  method  invcnteil  by  Mr.  T.  Iiakahmiah  Naidu,  nephew  of  the  lati-  W  H.  Krishnasvami  Naidu  of  Madras,  author 
of  "South  Indian  Chronological  Tables." 

Results  fouud  by  this  method  maij  be  inaceurale  by  as  much  as  two  days,  but  not  mure.  If  the  era  and  bases  of  calculatiou 
of  the  given  Hindu  date  are  elearly  known,  and  if  the  given  date  mentions  a  week-day,  the  day  found  by  the  Tables  may  be  altered 
to  suit  it.  Thus,  if  the  Table  yield  result  Jan.  10th,  Thursday,  but  the  inscription  mentions  the  week-day  as  "Tuesday",  then  Tuesday, 
January  8th,  may  be  assumed  to  be  the  correct  date  A.D.  corresponding  to  the  given  Hindu  date,  if  the  priuei|>le  on  which  the 
Hindu  date  was  fixed  is  known.     If  not,  this  method  must  not  be  trusted  to 

135.  (A.)  Conversion  of  a  Hindu  solar  date  into  the  corresponding  date  A.D.  Work  by 
the    following  rules,  always  bearing  in  mind  that  when  using  the  Kaliyuga  or  Saka  year  Hindus

66  THE  INDIAN  CALENDAR. 

usually  give  the  number  of  the  expired  year,  and  not  that  astronomically  current,  {e.g.,  Kaliyuga 
4904  means  in  full  phrase  "after  4904  years  of  the  Kaliyuga  had  elapsed") — but  when  using  the 
name  of  the  cyclic  year  they  give  that  of  the  one  then  current.  All  the  years  given  in  Table  I. 
are  current  years.     The  Table  to  work  by  is  Table  XIV. 

Rule  I.  From  Table  I.,  cols,  i  to  7,  and  Table  II.,  as  the  case  may  be,  find  the  year 
(current)  and  its  initial  date,  and  week-day  (cols.  13,  14,  Table  I.).  But  if  the  given  Hindu  date 
belongs  to  any  of  the  months  printed  in  italics  at  the  head  of  Table  XIV.,  take  the  next  follow- 
ing initial  date  and  weekday  in  cols.  13,  14  of  Table  I.  The  months  printed  in  the  heading  in 
capitals  are  the  initial  months  of  the  years  according  to  the  different  reckonings. 

Rule  II.  For  either  of  the  modes  of  reckoning  given  at  the  left  of  the  head-columns  of 
months,  find  the  given  month,  and  under  it  the  given  date. 

Rule  III.  From  the  given  date  so  found,  run  the  eye  to  the  left  and  find  the  week-day 
in   the    same  line  under  the  week-day  number  found  by  Rule  I.     This  is  the  required  week-day. 

Rule  IV.     Note  number  in  brackets  in  the  same  line  on  extreme  left. 

Rule  V.  In  the  columns  to  left  of  the  body  of  the  Table  choose  that  headed  by  the 
bracket-number  so  found,  and  run  the  eye  down  till  the  initial  date  found  by  Rule  I.  is  obtained. 

Rule  VI.  From  the  month  and  date  in  the  upper  columns  (found  by  Rule  II.)  run  the 
eye  down  to  the  point  of  junction  (vertical  and  horizontal  lines)  of  this  with  the  initial  date  found 
by  Rule  V.     This  is  the  required  date  A.  D. 

Rule  VII.  If  the  date  A.  D.  falls  on  or  after  ist  January  in  columns  to  the  right,  it  belongs 
to  the  next  following  year.  If  such  next  following  year  is  a  leap-year  (marked  by  an  asterisk 
in  Table  I.)  and  the  date  falls  after  February  28th  in  the  above  columns,  reduce  the  date 
by  one  day. 

N.B. — The  dates  A.D.  obtained  from  this  Table  for  solar  years  are  Old  Style  dates  up 
to  8th  April,  1753,  inclusive.

method  B,  Art.   137,  p.  70.)     Use  Table  XIV. 

Rule  I.  From  Tables  I.,  cols,  i  to  7  and  13,  14,  and  Tabic  II.,  as  the  case  may  be.  find 
the  Hindu  year,  and  its  initial  date  and  week-day,  opposite  the  given  year  A. U.  If  the  given 
date  falls  before  such  initial  date,  take  the  next  previous  Hindu  year  and  its  initial  date  and 
week-day  A.D.

bracket-figure    on    the    extreme    left    corresponding    with    that    found    by    Rule  III.     This  is  the 
required  date. 

Rule  V.  If  the  given  date  falls  in  the  columns  to  the  right  after  the  28th  February  in 
a  leap-year  (marked  with  an  asterisk  in  Table  I.),  add   i  to  the  resulting  date. 

Rule  VI.  From  the  date  found  by  Rule  IV.  or  V.,  as  the  case  may  be,  carry  the  eye 
horizontally  to  the  weekday  columns  at  the  top  on  the  left,  and  select  the  day  which  lies  under 
the  week-day  number  found  from  Table  I.  (Rule  I.).     This  is  the  required  week-day. 

Rule  VII.  If  the  Hindu  date  arrived  at  falls  under  any  of  the  months  printed  in  italics 
in  the  Hindu  month-columns  at  head  of  Table,  the  required  year  is  the  one  next  previous  to  that 
given  in  Table  I.  (Rule  I.). 

Example.     Find  the  Tamil  solar  date  corresponding  to  March  30th,   1804  (N.S.). 
(By  Rule  I.)     Rudhirodgari,   Kali  4905  current.   2  (Monday)  April  i  ith.  (March  30th  precedes 
April   nth.) 

(By  Rules  II.,  III.)  The  point  of  junction  of  March  30th  (body  of  Table),  and  April  nth, 
(columns  on  left)  is  under  "(4)."  Other  entries  of  April  nth  do  not  correspond  with  any 
entry  of  March   30). 

(By  Rule  IV.)  The  date  at  the  junction  of  the  vertical  column  containing  this  "  March  30th" 
with  "(4)"  horizontal  is    19th  Panguni. 

(By  Rule  V.)     (1804  is  a  leap-year)  20th  Panguni. 
(By  Rule  VI.)     Under  "2"  (Rule  I.),  Friday. 

Answer. — Friday,  20th   Paiiguni,  of  Rudhirodgari,  Kali  4905  current.  (See  example  15,  p.  76. 
1 36.     (A.)     Conversion  of  a  Hindu  luni-solar  date  into  the  corresponding  date  A.D.  Work 
by  the  following  rules,  using  Tables  XV. A.,  and  XV.B. 

Rule  I.  From  Table  I.  find  the  current  year  and  its  initial  day  and  week-day  in  A.D. 
reckoning,  remembering  that  if  the  given  Hindu  date  falls  in  one  of  the  months  printed  in  italics 
at  the  head  of  Table  XV.  the  calculation  must  be  made  for  the  next  following  A.D.  year.  (The 
months  printed  in  capitals  are  the  initial  months  of  the  years  according  to  the  dift'erent  reckonings 
enumerated  in  the  column  to  the  left.) 

Rule  II.  [a.)  Find  the  given  month,  and  under  it  the  given  date,  in  the  columns  at  the 
head  of  Table  XV.,  in  the  same  line  witli  the  appropriate  mode  of  reckoning  given  in  the  column 
to  the  left.     The  dates  printed  in  black  type  are  krishna,  or  dark  fortnight,  dates. 

(/; )  In  intercalary  years  (cols.  8  to  12,  8«  to  12a  of  Table  I.),  if  the  given  month  is  itself 
an  adhika  masa  (intercalary  month),  read  it,  for  purpose  of  this  Table,  as  if  it  were  not  so;  but 
if  the  given  month  is  styled  nija,  or  if  it  falls  after  a  repeated  month,  but  before  an  expunged 
one  (if  any),  work  in  this  Table  for  the  month  next  following  the  given  one,  as  if  that  and  not 
the  given  month  had  been  given.  If  the  given  month  is  preceded  by  both  an  intercalated  and 
a  suppressed  month,  work  as  if  the  year  were  an  ordinary  one. 

Rule  III.  From  the  date  found  by  Rule  II.  carry  the  eye  to  the  left,  and  find  the  week- 
day in  the  same  horizontal  line,  but  directly  under  the  initial  week-day  found  by  Rule  I. 

Rule  IV.  Note  the  number  in  brackets  on  the  extreme  left  opposite  the  week-day  last 
found. 

Rule  V.     In  the  columns  to  the  left  of  the  body  of  the  Table  choose  that  headed  by  the 


68  THE  INDIAN  CALENDAR. 

bracket-number  so  found,  and  run  the  eye  down  till  the  initial  date  found  by   Rule  I.  is  obtained. 

Rule  VI.  From  the  Hindu  date  found  by  Rule  II.  run  the  eye  down  to  the  point  of  junction, 
(vertical  and  horizontal  lines)  of  this  date  with  the  date  found  by  Rule  V.  The  result  is  the 
required  date  A.D. 

Rule  VII  (a.)  If  the  date  A.D.  falls  on  or  after  January  1st  in  the  columns  to  the  right,  it 
belongs  to  the  next  following  year  A.D. 

(/;.)  If  it  is  after  February  28th  in  a  leap-year  (marked  by  an  asterisk  in  col.  5,  Table  I.) 
reduce  the  date  by  one  day,  e.Kcept  in  a  leap-year  in  which  the  initial  date  (found  in  Table  I.) 
itself  falls  after  February  28th. 

[c.)     The  dates  obtained  up  to  April  3rd,  A.D.   1753,  are  Old  Style  dates. 

Example.  To  find  the  date  A.  D.  corresponding  to  amanta  Karttika  krishna  2nd  of  Kali 
4923  expired,  Saka  1744  expired,  Karttikadi  Vikrama  1878  expired,  Chaitradi  Vikrama  1879  expired 
(1880  current),  "  Vijaya  "  in    the  Brihaspati  cycle,"  Chitrabhanu  "  in  the  luni-solar  60-year  cycle. 

(By  Rule  I.)     (Kali  4924  current),    i   Sunday,   March  24th,   1822. 

(By  Rule  II.)  (Karttika,  the  8th  month,  falls  after  the  repeated  month,  7  Asvina,  and  before 
the  suppressed  month,    10  Pausha),   Margasirsha  krishna  2nd. 

(By  Rule  III.)     (Under  "  i "),   i   Sunday. 

(By  Rule  IV.)     Bracket-number  (i). 

(By  Rule    V.)     Under  (i)  run  down  to  March  24th  (Rule   I.) 

(By  Rule  VI.)     (Point  of  junction)  December  ist. 

Answer. —  Sunday,  December  ist,   1822. 

(B.)  Conversion  of  a  date  A.  D.  into  the  corresponding  luni-solar  Hindu  date.  (See  Rule  V. 
method  B,  p.  67  below).     Use  Tables  XV.A.,  XV.B. 

Rule  I.  From  Table  I.  find  the  Hindu  year,  and  its  initial  date  and  week-day,  using  also 
Table  II.,  Parts  ii.,  iii.  If  the  given  date  falls  before  such  initial  date  take  the  next  previous 
Hindu  year,  and  its  initial  date  and  weekday. 

Rule  II.  In  the  columns  to  the  left  of  the  body  of  Table  XV.  note  the  initial  date  found 
by  Rule  I.,  which  is  in  the  same  horizontal  line  with  the  given  date  in  the  body  of  the  Table. 

Rule  III.  Carrying  the  eye  upwards,  note  the  bracket-figure  at  the  head  of  the  initial 
date-column  so  noted. 

Rule  IV.  From  the  given  date  found  in  the  body  of  the  Table  (Rule  11.)  run  the  eye 
upwards  to  the  Hindu  date-columns  above,  and  select  the  date  which  is  in  the  same  horizontal 
line  as  the  bracket-figure  in  the  extreme  left  found  by  Rule  III.     This  is  the  required  Hindu  date. 

Rule  V.  Note  in  Table  I.  if  the  year  is  an  intercalary  one  (cols.  8  to  i2,and8«to  12a). 
If  it  is  so,  note  if  the  Hindu  month  found  by  Rule  IV.  [a)  precedes  the  fir.st  intercalary  month, 
(/')  follows  one  intercalated  and  one  suppressed  month,  (r)  follows  an  intercalated,  but  precedes  a 
suppressed  month,  [d^  follows  two  intercalated  months  and  one  suppressed  month.  In  cases  {ai) 
and  {b)  work  as  though  the  year  were  a  common  year,  i.e.,  make  no  alteration  in  the  date  found 
by  Rule  IV.  In  cases  (r)  and  {d)  if  the  found  month  immediatel)-  follows  the  intercalated  month, 
the  name  of  the  required  Hindu  month  is  to  be  the  name  of  the  intercalated  month  with  the 
prefix  "nija,"  and  not  the  name  of  the  month  actually  found;  and  if  the  found  month  docs  not 
immediately  follow  the  intercalated  month,  then  the  required  1  lindu  month  is  the  month  immediately 
preceding  the  found  month.  If  the  found  month  is  itself  intercalary,  it  retains  its  name,  but  with 
the  prefi.x  "adhika."  If  the  found  month  is  itself  suppressed,  the  requiretl  month  is  the  month 
immediately  preceding  the  found  month.

Rule  VI.  If  the  given  date  A.D.  falls  after  February  29th  in  the  columns  to  the  right, 
in  a  leap-year  (marked  with  an  asterisk  in  Table  I.),  add    i   to  the  resulting  Hindu  date. 

Rule  VII.  From  the  date  found  by  Rule  IV.  carry  the  eye  horizontally  to  the  week-day 
columns  on  the  left,  and  select  the  day  which  lies  under  the  initial  week-day  number  found  by

(By  Rule  VI.)     The  year  was  not  a  leap-year. 

(By  Rule  VII.)     Sunday. 

(By  Rule  VIII.)     Does  not  apply. 

Answer. — Sunday,  Karttika  krishna  2nd,  Kali  4923  expired,  Saka  1744  expired.  (This  can 
be  applied  to  all  Chaitradi  years.)     (See  example    12   below,  p.  75.) 


Method  B. 


APPROXIMATE  COMPUTATION   OF   DATES   BY   A   SIMPLE  PROCESS. 


This  is  the  system  introduced  by  Mr.  W.  S.   Krishiiasviimi  Naidu  of  Madras  into  his  "South-Indian  Chi'onological  Tables." 

137.     (A.)   Conversioti  of  Hindu  dates  into  dates  A.D.     (See  Art.    135  above,  para,   i.) 

Rule  I.  Given  a  Hindu  year,  month  and  date.  Convert  it  if  necessary  by  cols,  i  to  5  of  Table  I., 
and  by  Table  II.,  into  a  Chaitradi  Kali  or  Saka  year,  and  the  month  into  an  amanta  month.  (See 
Art.  104.)  Write  down  in  a  horizontal  line  (</)  the  date-indicator  given  in  brackets  in  col.  13 
or  19  of  Table  I.,  following  the  names  of  the  initial  civil  day  and  month  of  the  year  in  question 
as  so  converted,  and  (w)  the  week-day  number  (col.  14  or  20)  corresponding  to  the  initial  date 
A.D.  given  in  cols.  13  or  19.  To  both  [d]  and  [w)  add,  from  Table  III.,  the  collective  duration 
of  days  from  the  beginning  of  the  year  as  given  in  cols,  la  or  10  as  the  case  may  be,  up  to 
the  end  of  the  month  preceding  the  given  month,  and  also  add  the  number  of  given  Hindu 
days  in  the  given  month  minus  1.  If  the  given  date  is  luni-solar  and  belongs  to  the  krishiia 
paksha,  add    15  to  the  collective  duration  and  proceed  as  before. 

Rule  II.     From    the    sum    of  the  first   addition  find  in  Table  IX.  (top  and  side  columns) 


70  THE  INDIAN  CALENDAR. 

the    required    English    date,    remembering  that  when  this  is  over  365   in  a  common  year  or  366 
in  a  leap-year  the  date  A.D.  falls  in  the  ensuing  A.D.  year. 

Rule  III.  From  the  sum  of  the  second  addition  cut  out  sevens.  The  remainder  shews 
the  required  day  of  the  week. 

Rule  IV.  If  the  Hindu  date  is  in  a  luni-solar  year  where,  according  to  cols.  8  to  12, 
there  was  an  added  [adiiikd)  or  suppressed  [kshaya]  month,  and  falls  after  such  month,  the  addition 
or  suppression  or  both  must  be  allowed  for  in  calculating  the  collective  duration  of  days;  i.e., 
add   30  days  for  an  added  month,  and  deduct  30  for  a  suppressed  month. 

Rule  V.  The  results  are  Old  Style  dates  up  to,  and  New  Style  dates  from,  1752  A.D. 
The  New  style  in  England  was  introduced  with  effect  from  after  2nd  September,  1752.  Since 
the  initial  dates  of  1752,  1753  only  are  given,  remember  to  apply  the  correction  (+  11  days) 
to  any  date  between  2nd  September,  1752,  and  9th  April,  1753,  in  calculating  by  the  Hindu 
solar  year,  or  between  2nd  September,  1752,  and  4th  April,  1753,  in  calculating  by  the  Hindu  luni- 
solar  year,  so  as  to  bring  out  the  result  in  New  Style  dates  A.D.  The  day  of  the  week  requires 
no  alteration. 

Rule  VI.  If  the  date  A.D.  found  as  above  falls  after  February  29th  in  a  leap-year,  it 
must  be  reduced  by  one  day. 

(a)     Luni-Solar  Dates. 

Example  i.     Required   the    A.D.  equivalent  of  (luni-solar)  Vaisakha  sukla  shashthi  (6th), 
year  Sarvari,  Saka   1702  expired,  (1703  current). 

The  A.D.  year  is  1 780  (a  leap-year).  The  initial  date  (d)  =  5th  April  (96),  and  (-f)  —  4 
Wednesday,  (Table  I.,  cols.  5,   19,  20).

130  39-5-7  =  Rem.  4 

The  result  gives  130  (Table  IX.)  =  May  loth,  and  4  =  Wednesday.  The  required  date  is 
therefore  Wednesday,  May   loth,  A.D.   1780. 

Example  2.  Required  the  A.D.  equivalent  of  (luni-solar)  Karttika  sukla  panchami  (5th) 
Saka   1698  expired  (1699  current). 

The  A.D.  year  is  1 776,  and  the  initial  date  is  (d)  =  20th  March  (80),  (w)  —  Wednesday  (4). 
This  is  a  leap-year,  and  the  Table  shews  us  that  the  month  (6)  Bhadrapada  was  intercalated.  So 
there  is  both  an  adhika  Bhadrapada  and  a  nija  Bhadrapada  in  this  year,  which  compels  us  to 
treat  the  given  month  Karttika  as  if  it  were  the  succeeding  month  Marga-sirsha  in  order  to  get 
at  the  proper  figure  for  the  collective  duration.

Ex.VMPLE  4.  Required  the  A.D.  equivalent  of  Magha  krishna  padyami  (ist)  ofK.Y.  4923

vatsara,  and  col.  8  shews  us  that  the  month  Asvina  was  intercalated  (aditika),  and  the  month 
Pausha  suppressed  (kshaya).  We  have  therefore  to  add  30  days  for  the  adhika  month  and 
subtract  30  days  for  the  kshaya  month,  since  Magha  comes  after  Pausha.  Hence  the  relative 
place  of  the  month  Magha  remains  unaltered, 

Table  I.  gives  24th  March  (83),  (i)  Sunday,  as  the  initial  day.

This  is  correct  by  the  Tables,  but  as  there  happened  to  be  an  e.xpunged  tithi  in  Magha 
.sukla,  the  first  fortnight  of  Magha,  the  result  is  wrong  by  one  day.  The  corresponding  day  was 
really  Monday,  January  27th,  and  to  this  we  should  have  been  guided  if  the  given  date  had 
included  the  mention  of  Monday  as  the  week-day.  That  is,  we  should  have  fi.xed  Monday,  January 
27th,  as  the  required  day  A.D.  because  our  result  gave  Tuesday,  January  28th,  and  we  knew  that 
the  date  given  fell  on  a  Monday,

March  (65),  (5)  Thursday.  The  month  Ashadha  was  intercalated.  Therefore  the  given  month

We    must    add   eleven    days  to  the  amount  371   to  make  it  a  New  Style  date,  because  it 
falls  after  September  2nd,    1752,  and  before  4th  April,   1753,  (after  which  all  dates  will  be  in  New 
Style  by  the  Tables).     371  +  1 1  =  382  =  January   17th  (Table  IX.).     4  ;:^  Wednesday. 
Answer. — Wednesday,  January   17th,  A.D.   1753. 

Example  6.  Required  the  A.D.  equivalent  of  Vikrama  samvatsara  1879  Ashadha  krishna 
dvitiya  (2nd).  If  this  is  a  southern  Vikrama  year,  as  used  in  Gujarat,  Western  India,  and  countries 
south  of  the  Narmada,  the  year  is  Karttikadi  and  amanta,  i.e.,  the  sequence  of  fortnights  makes 
the  month  begin  with  sukla  1st.  The  first  process  is  to  convert  the  date  by  Table  11.,  Part  iii., 
col.  3,  Table  II.,  Part  ii.,  and  Table  I.,  into  a  Chaitradi  year  and  month.  Thus— Ashadha  isthe

If  the  year  given  be  a  northern  Vikrama  year,  as  used  in  Malwa,  Benares,  Ujjain,  and 
countries  north  of  the  Narmada,  the  Vikrama  year  is  Chaitradi  and  corresponds  to  the  Kali  4923, 
except  that,  being  purnimanta,  the  sequence  of  fortnights  differs  (see  Table  II.,  Part  i.).  In  such  a 
case  Ashadha  krishna  of  the  Vikrama  year  corresponds  to  Jyeshtha  krishna  in  amanta  months, 
and  we  must  work  for  Kali  4923  Jyeshtha  krishna  2nd.  By  Table  I.  the  initial  date  is  April  3rd 
(93)>  {3)  Tuesday.     The  A.D.  year  is   1821—22. 

•  This  is  nduallv  wroiij;  by  one  day,  owing  to  the  upproximotc  oolledivc  duration  of  days  (Table  III,  3«)  being  taken  as  89.

138.  (B.)  Conversion  of  dates  A.D.  into  Hindu  dates.  (See  Art.  135  above,  par.  i.) 
Rule  I.  Given  a  year,  month,  and  date  A.D.  Write  down  in  a  horizontal  line  [d]  the  date- 
indicator  of  the  initial  date  |in  brackets  (Table  I.,  cols.  13  or  19,  as  the  case  may  be))  of  the  corresponding 
Hindu  year  required,  and  (if)  the  week-day  number  of  that  initial  date  (col.  14  or  20),  remembering  that, 
if  the  given  date  A.D.  is  earlier  than  such  initial  date,  the  [d]  and  (zc)  of  the  previous  Hindu  year 
must  be  taken.  Subtract  the  date-indicator  from  the  date  number  of  the  given  A.D.  date  in 
Table  IX.,  remembering  that,  if  the  previous  Hindu  year  has  been  taken  down,  the  number  to 
be  taken  from  Table  IX.  is  that  on  the  right-hand  side  of  the  Table  and  not  that  on  the  left. 
From  the  result  subtract  (Table  III.,  col.  ^a  or  10)  the  collective-duration-figure  which  is  nearest  to, 
but  lower  than,  that  amount,  and  add  i  to  the  total  so  obtained ;  and  to  the  {lii)  add  the  figure 
resulting  from  the  second  process  under  {d),  and  divide  by  7.  The  result  gives  the  required  week- 
day. The  resulting  {d)  gives  the  day  of  the  Hindu  month  following  that  whose  collective  duration 
was  subtracted. 

Rule  II.  Observe  (Table  I.,  cols.  8  or  8a)  if  there  has  been  an  addition  or  suppression 
of  a  month  prior  to  the  month  found  by  Rule  I.   and  proceed  accordingly. 

An  easy  rule  for  dealing  with  the  added  and  suppressed  month  is  the  following.  When 
the  intercalated  month  (Table  I.,  col.  8  or  8a)  precedes  the  month  immediately  preceding  the  one 
found,  such  immediately  preceding  month  is  the  required  month;  when  the  intercalated  month 
immediately  precedes  the  one  found,  such  immediately  preceding  month  with  the  prefix  "nija," 
natural,  is  the  required  month ;  when  the  intercalated  month  is  the  same  as  that  found,  such  month 
with  the  prefix  "adhika"  is  the  recjuircd  month.  When  a  suppressed  month  precedes  the  month 
found,  the  required  month  is  the  same  as  that  found,  because  there  is  never  a  suppression  of  a 
month  without  the  intercalation  of  a  previous  month,  which  nullifies  the  suppression  so  far  as 
regards  the  collective  duration  of  preceding  days.  But  if  the  given  month  falls  after  two  intercal- 
ations and  one  suppression,  act  as  above  for  one  intercalation  onh'. 

Rule  III.     See  Art.   137  (A)  Rule  V.  (p.  70),  but  subtract  the  eleven  days  instead  of  adding. 
Rule  IV.     If  the  given  A.D.  date  falls  in  a  leap-year  after  29th  l-'ebruary,  or  if  its  date-number 


THE  HINDU  CALENDAR.  75

I  to  the  date-number  of  the  given  European  date  found  by  Table  IX.,  before  subtracting  the 
figure  of  the  date-indicator 

Rule  V.  Where  the  required  date  is  a  Hindu  luni-solar  date  the  second  total,  if  less  than 
15,  indicates  a  sukia  date.  If  more  than  15,  deduct  15,  and  the  remainder  will  be  a  krishna 
date.  Krishna  15  is  generally  termed  krishna  30;  and  often  sukla  15  is  called  "piirnima"  (full- 
moon  day),  and  krishna   15   (or  "30")  is  called    amavasya  (new-moon  day).

The  result  so  far  is  Sunday  Margasirsha  krishna  2nd.  But  see  Table  I.,  col.  8.  Previous 
to  this  month  Asvina  was  intercalated.  (The  suppression  of  Pausha  need  not  be  considered 
because  that  month  comes  after  Margasirsha.)  Therefore  the  required  month  is  not  Margasirsha, 
but  Karttika;  and  the  answer  is  Sunday  Karttika  krishna  2nd  (Telugu),  or  Jarde  (Tulu),  of  the 
year  Chitrabhanu,  K.Y.  4923  expired,  Saka  1744  expired.     (See  the  example  on  p.  69.) 

(Note.)  As  in  example  6  above,  this  date  is  actually  wrong  by  one  day,  because  it  hap- 
pened that  in  Karttika  sukla  there  was  a  tithi,  the  12th,  suppressed,  and  consequently  the  real 
day  corresponding  to  the  civil  day  was  Sunday  Karttika  krishna  3rd.  These  differences  cannot 
possibly  be  avoided  in  methods  A  and  B,  nor  by  any  method  unless  the  duration  of  every  tithi 
of  every  year  be  separately  calculated.     (See  example  xvii.,  p.  92.) 

Example  13.  Required  the  Chaitradi  Northern  Vikrama  date  corresponding  to  .April  9th

Answer. — Saturday  20th  Chingani.  This  is  the  12th  month  of  the  North  Malayajam  Andu 
which  begins  with  Kanni.     The  year  therefore  is    1023.

same,  20th  Chingam,  but  as  the  South  MalayaUs  begin  the  year  with  Chii'igam  as  the  first  month, 
the  required  South  Malayalam  year  would  be  Andu   1024.

EXACT  CALCULATION  OF  DATES. 

(a.)     Conversion  of  Hhidu  luni-solar  dates  into  dates  A.D. 

139.  To  calculate  the  iveek-day.  the  equivalent  date  A.D.,  and  the  moment  of  beginning  or 
ending  of  a  tithi.  Given  a  Hindu  year,  month,  and  tithi. — Turn  the  given  year  into  a  Chaitradi 
Kali,  Saka,  or  Vikrama  year,  and  the  given  month  into  an  amanta  month  (if  they  are  not  already  so) 
and  find  the  corresponding  year  A.D.,  by  the  aid  of  columns  i  to  5  '  of  Table  I.,  and  Table  II., 
Parts  i.,  ii.,  iii.  Referring  to  Table  I.,  carry  the  eye  along  the  line  of  the  Chaitradi  year  so  found, 
and  write  down  '  in  a  horizontal  line  the  following  five  quantities  corresponding  to  the  day  of 
commencement  (Chaitra  sukla  pratipada)  of  that  Chaitradi-year,  viz.,  [d)  the  date-indicator  given  in 
brackets  after  the  day  and  month  A.D.  (Table  I.,  col.  19),  (w)  the  week-day  number  (col.  20),  and  [a].  {/>). 
(c)  (cols.  23,  24,  25).  Find  the  number  of  tithis  which  have  intervened  between  the  initial  day 
of  the  year  (Chaitra  sukla  pratipada),  and  the  given  tithi,  by  adding  together  the  number  of  tithis 
(collective  duration)  up  to  the  end  of  the  month  previous  to  the  given  one  (col.  3,  Table  III.),  and 
the  number  of  elapsed  tithis  of  the  given  month  (that  is  the  serial  number  of  the  given  tithi  reduced 
by  one),  taking  into  account  the  extra  15  days  of  the  sukla  paksha  if  the  tithi  belongs  to  the  krishna 
paksha,  and  also  the  intervening  intercalary  month,'  if  any,  given  in  col.  8  (or  Sa)  of  Table  I. 
This  would  give  the  result  in  tithis.  But  days,  not  tithis,  are  required.  To  reduce  the  tithis  to 
days,  reduce  the  sum  of  the  tithis  by  its  60th  part,*  taking  fractions  larger  than  a  half  as  one, 
and  neglecting  half  or  less  The  result  is  the  ((/),  the  approximate  number  of  days  which  have  inter- 
vened since  the  initial  day  of  the  Hindu  year.  Write  this  number  under  head  (</),  and  write  under 
their  respective  heads,  the  {21').  {a).  {/>),  (c)  for  that  number  of  days  from  Table  IV.  Add  together  the 
two  lines  of  five  quantities,  but  in  the  case  of  (w)  divide  the  result  by  7  and  write  only  the  remainder, 
in  the  case  of  (a)  write  only  the  remainder  under  lOOOO,  and  in  the  case  of  (d)  and  (c)  only  the 
remainder  under  1000.^  Find  separately  the  equations  to  arguments  (/;)  and  (f)  in  Tables  VI.  and  VII. 
respectively,  and  add  them  to  the  total  under  (a).  The  sum  (/)  is  the  tithi-index,  which,  by 
cols.  2  and  3  of  Table  VIII.,  will  indicate  the  tithi  current  at  mean  sunrise  on  the  week-day 
found  under  (te/).  If  the  number  of  the  tithi  so  indicated  is  not  the  same  as  that  of  the  given 
one,  but  is  greater  or  less  by  one  (or  by  two  in  rare  cases),  subtract  one  (or  two)    from,  or  add 

1  The  initial  days  in  cols    1.?  and  19,  T.iblc  I ,  beloni;  to  the  first  of  the  double  years  A.I)    given  in  col    5 

2  It  will  be  well  for  a  beginner  to  take  an  example  at  once,  and  work  it  out  according  to  the  rule  After  a  little  jiractice 
the  calculations  can  be  made  rapidly. 

3  When  the  intercalary  month  is  Chaitra,  count  that  also.     See  Art.  99  above. 

<  This  number  is  taken  for  easy  calculation.  Properly  speaking,  to  convert  tithis  into  days  the  C4th  part  should  be  subtracted. 
The  difference  does  not  introduce  any  material  error. 

5  Generally  with  regard  to  (ic),  (a),  {i),  (c)  in  working  addition  sums,  take  only  the  remainder  respectively  over  7, 10000,  1000  and 
1000;  and  in  subtracting,  if  the  sura  to  be  subtracted  be  greater,  add  respectively  7,  10000,  1000  and  1000  to  the  figure  above.

one  (or  two)  to,  both  {d)  and  (w);'  subtract  from,  or  add  to,  the  {a)  {b)  {c)  already  found,  their 
value  for  one  (or  two)  days  (Table  IV.);  add  to  («)  the  equations  for  (<5)  and  (r)  (Tables  VI.  and  VII.) 
and  the  sum  (/)  will  then  indicate  the  tithi.  If  this  is  the  same  as  given  (if  not,  proceed  again 
as  before  till  it  corresponds),  the  («')  is  its  week-day,  and  the  date  shewn  in  the  top  line  and 
side  columns  of  Table  IX.  corresponding  with  the  ascertained  {d)  is  its  equivalent  date  A.D.  The 
year  A.D.  is  found  on  the  line  of  the  given  Chaitradi  year  in  col.  5,  Table  I.  Double  figures 
are  given  in  that  column ;  if  {d)  is  not  greater  than  365  in  a  common  year,  or  366  in  a  leap-year, 
the  first,  otherwise  the  second,  of  the  double  figures  shows  the  proper  A.D.  year. 

140.  For  all  practical  purposes  and  for  some  ordinary  religious  purposes  a  tithi  is  con- 
nected with  that  week-day  at  whose  sunrise  it  is  current.  For  some  religious  purposes,  however, 
and  sometimes  even  for  practical  purposes  also,  a  tithi  which  is  current  at  any  particular  moment 
of  a  week-day  is  connected  with  that   week-day.     {See  Art.   ,v  above.) 

141.  In  the  case  of  an  expunged  tithi,  the  day  on  which  it  begins  and  ends  is  its  week- 
day and  equivalent.  In  the  case  of  a  repeated  tithi,  both  the  civil  days  at  whose  sunrise  it 
is  current,"  are   its  week-days  and  equivalents. 

142.  A  clue  for  finding  zvhen  a  titlii  is  probably  repeated  or  expunged.  When  tjie  tithi- 
inde.x  corresponding  to  a  sunrise  is  greater  or  less,  within  40,  than  the  ending  index  of  a  tithi, 
and  when  the  equation  for  (/;)  (Table  VI.)  is  decreasing,  a  repetition  of  the  same  or  another 
tithi  takes  place  shortly  after  or  before  that  sunrise;  and  when  the  equation  for  (b)  is  increasing 
an  e-\-punction  of  a  tithi  (different  from  the  one  in  question)  takes  place  shortly  before  or  after  it. 

143.  The  identification  of  the  date  A.D.  with  the  week-day  arrived  at  by  the  above 
method,  may  be  verified  by  Table  XIII.  The  verification,  however,  is  not  in  itself  proof  of  the 
correctness  of  our  results. 

144.  To  find  the  moment  of  the  ending  of  a  titlii.  Find  the  difference  between  the  (/) 
on  the  given  day  at  sunrise  and  the  (?)  of  the  tithi-inde.x  which  shews  the  ending  point  of  that 
tithi  (Table  VIII.).  With  this  difference  as  argument  find  the  corresponding  time  either  in 
ghatikas  and  palas,  or  hours  and  minutes,  according  to  choice,  from  Table  X.  The  given  tithi 
ends  after  the  given  sunrise  by  the  interval  of  time  so  found.  But  this  interval  is  not  always 
absolutely  accurate.  {See  Art.  82).  If  accuracy  is  desired  add  the  {a){b){e)  for  this  interval  of  time 
(Table  V.)  to  the  {a)  {b)  {c)  already  obtained  for  sunrise.  Add  as  before  to  {a)  the  equations  of 
(b)  and  {c)  from  Tables  VI.  and  VII.,  and  find  the  difference  between  the  (/)  thus  arrived  at  and  the 
(/)  of  the  ending  point  of  the  tithi  (Table  VIII.).  The  time  corresponding  to  that  difference,  found  from 
Table  X.,  will  show  the  ending  of  the  tithi  before  or  after  the  first  found  time.  If  still  greater  accur- 
acy is  desired,  proceed  until  (/)  amounts  exactly  to  the  (/)  of  the  ending  point  (Table  VIII.)  For 
ordinary  purposes,  however,  the  first  found  time,  or  at  least  that  arrived  at  after  one  more  process,  is 
sufficiently  accurate. 

145.  The  moment  of  the  beginning  of  a  tithi  is  the  same  as  the  moment  of  ending  of 
the  tithi  next  preceding  it;  and  this  can  be  found  either  by  calculating  backwards  from  the  (/) 
of  the  same  tithi,  or  independently  from  the  (/)  of  the  preceding  tithi. 

146.  The  moment  of  beginning  or  ending  of  tithis  thus  found  is  in  mean  time,  and  is 
applicable    to  all  places  on  the  meridian  of  Ujjain,  which  is  the  same  as  that  of  Lanka.     If  the

exact  mean  time  for  otlier  places  is  reciuircd,  appl)'  the  correction  given  in  Table  XI.,  according 
to  the  rule  given  under  that  Table.  If  after  this  correction  the  ending  time  of  a  tithi  is  found 
to    fall    on  the  previous  or  following  day  the  id)  and  {iv)  .should  be  altered  accordingly. 

Mean  time  is  used  throughout  the  parts  of  the  Tables  used  for  these  rules,  and  it  may 
sometimes  differ  from  the  true,  used,  at  least  in  theory,  in   Hindu  panchangs  or  almanacks. 

The  ending  time  of  a  tithi  arrived  at  by  these  Tables  may  also  somewhat  differ  from  the 
ending  time  as  arrived  at  from  authorities  other  than  the  Siirya  Siddhanta  which  is  used  by  us. 
The  results,  however,  arrived  at  by  the  present  Tables,  may  be  safely  relied  on  for  all  ordinary 
purposes.' 

147.  N.B.  i.  Up  to  1100  A.D.  both  mean  and  true  intercalary  months  are  given  in 
Table  I.  [see  Art.  47  aboi'e).  When  it  is  not  certain  whether  the  given  year  is  an  expired  or 
current  year,  whether  it  is  a  Chaitradi  year  or  one  of  another  kind,  whether  the  given  month 
is  amanta  or  purnimanta,  and  whether  the  intercalary  month,  if  any,  was  taken  true  or  mean, 
the  only  course  is  to  try  all  possible  years  and  months. 

N.B.  a.  The  results  are  all  Old  Style  dates  up  to,  and  New  Style  dates  from,  1753  A.D  The 
New  Style  was  introduced  with  effect  from  after  2nd  September,  1752.  Since  only  the  initial 
dates  of  1752  and  1753  are  given,  remember  to  apply  the  correction  (+  11  days)  to  any 
date  between  2nd  September,  1752,  and  9th  April,  1753,  in  calculating  by  the  Hindu  solar  year, 
and  between  2nd  September,  1752,  and  4th  April,  1753,  in  calculating  by  the  Hindu  luni-solar  year, 
so  as  to  bring  out  the  result  in  New  Style  dates  A.D.     The  day  of  the  week  requires  no  alteration. 

A'.B.  Hi.  If  the  date  A.D.  found  above  falls  after  F"ebruary  28th  in  a  leap-year,  it  must 
be  reduced  by   i. 

N.B.  iv.  The  Hindus  generally  use  expired  [gatd)  years,  while  current  years  are  given 
throughout  the  Tables.     For  example,  for  Saka  year   1702  "expired"    1703  current  is  given. 

148.  Example  I.  Required  the  week-day  and  the  A.D.  year,  month,  and  day  correspond- 
ing to  Jyeshtha  sukla  paiichami  (5th),  year  Sarvari,  Saka  year  1702  expired  (1703  current),  and 
the  ending  and  beginning  time  of  that  tithi. 

The  given  year  is  Chaitradi  (see  N.B.  ii..  Table  II.,  Part  iii.).  It  does  not  matter  whether  the 
month  is  amanta  or  purnimanta,  because  the  fortnight  belongs  to  Jyeshtha  by  both  systems  (see 
Table  II.,  Part  i.).  Looking  to  Table  I.  along  the  given  current  Saka  year  1703,  we  find  that 
its  initial  day  falls  in  A.D.  1780  (see  note  [  to  Art.  139),  a  leap-year,  on  the  5th  April,  Wednesday; 
and  that  d  (col.  19).  w  (col.  20),  a  (col.  23).  /;  (col.  24)  and  c  (col.  25)  are  96,4,  1,657  and  267 
respectively.  We  write  them  in  a  horizontal  line  (see  the  working  of  the  example  below).  From 
Table  I.,  col.  8,  we  find  that  there  is  no  added  month  in  the  year.  The  number  therefore  of  tithis 
between  Chaitra  .s.  i  and  Jyeshtha  s.  5  was  64,  viz.,  60  up  to  the  end  of  Vaisakha  (see  Table  III., 
col.  3),  the  month  preceding  the  given  one,  and  4  in  Jyeshtha.  The  sixtieth  part  of  64  (neglecting 
tlie  fraction  ^  because  it  is  not  more  than  half)  is  r.  Reduce  64  by  one  and  we  have  63  as  the  approx- 
imate number  of  days  between  Chaitra  .s.  i  and  Jyeshtha  s.  5.  We  write  this  number  under 
{d).  Turning  to  Table  IV.  with  the  argument  63  we  find  under  (w)  («)  (/J)  (c)  the  numbers o,  1334, 
286,  172,  respectively,  and  we  write  them  under  their  respective  heads,  and  add  together  the  two 
quantities  under  each  head.  With  the  argument  (/')  (943)  we  turn  to  Table  VI.  for  the  equation. 
We  do  not  find  exactly  the  number  943  given,  but  we  have  940  and  950  and  must  see  the 
difference  between  the  corresponding  equation-figures  and  fix  the  appropriate  figure  for  943. 
The  auxiliary  table  given  will  fi.x  this,  but  in  practice  it  can  be  easily  calculated  in  the  head.  (The 
1     See  Arts.  36  and  37  in  which  all  the  points  noted  in  this  article  are  fully  treated  of. 


So  THE  INDIAN  CALENDAR. 

full  numbers  are  not  given  so  as  to  avoid  cunibrousness  in  the  tables.)  Thus  the  equation  for  (/') 
(943)  is  found  to  be  90,  and  from  Table  VII.  the  equation  for  (c)  is  found  to  be  38.  Adding  90  and 
38  to  (a)  (133s)  we  get  1463,  which  is  the  required  tithi-index  (/).  Turning  with  this  to  Table  VIII., 
col.  3,  we  find  by  col.  2  that  the  tithi  current  was  .sukla  5,  i.e.,  the  given  date.  Then  (:i')  4, 
Wednesday,  was  its  week-day;  and  the  tithi  was  current  at  mean  sunrise  on  the  meridian  of  Ujjain 
on  that  week-day.  Turning  with  [d]  159  to  Table  IX.,  we  find  that  the  equivalent  date  A.D. 
was  8th  June;  but  as  this  was  after  28th  February  in  a  leap-year,  we  fix  7th  June,  A.D.  1780. 
(see  N.B.  iii..  Art.  147)  as  the  equivalent  of  the  given  tithi.  As  (t)  is  not  within  40  of  1667,  the 
(I)  of  the  5th  tithi  (Table  VIII.),  there  is  no  probability  of  an  expunction  or  repetition  shortly 
preceding  or  following  (Art.  142).     The  answer  therefore  is  Wednesday,  June  7th,  A.D.   1780. 

To  find  tlie  ending  time  of  the  tithi.  (t)  at  sunrise  is  1463;  and  Table  VIII.,  col.  3,  shews 
that  the  tithi  will  end  when  (/)  amounts  to  1667.  (1667 — 1463=)  204  =  (Table  X.)  14  hours, 
27  minutes,  and  this  process  shews  us  that  the  tithi  will  end  14  hours,  27  minutes,  after  sunrise 
on  Wednesday,  June  7th.  This  time  is,  however,  approximate.  To  find  the  time  more  accurately 
we  add  the  increase  in  (a)  {b)  {c)  for  14  h.  27  m.  (Table  V.)  to  the  already  calculated  (a)  {/>)  (c) 
at  sunrise;  and  adding  to  (a)  as  before  the  equations  of  (d)  and  (c)  (Tables  VI.  and  VII.)  we  find 
that  the  resulting  (/)  amounts  to  1686.  1686 — 1667=19  =  1  hour  and  2 1  minutes  (Table  X.).  But 
this  is  a  period  beyond  the  end  of  the  tithi,  and  the  amount  must  be  deducted  from  the  14  h. 
27  m.  first  found  to  get  the  true  end.  The  true  end  then  is  13  h.  6  m.  after  sunrise  on  June  7th.  This 
time  is  accurate  for  ordinary  purposes,  but  for  still  further  accuracy  we  proceed  again  as  before. 
We  may  either  add  the  increase  in  (a)  (b)  (c)  for  13  h.  6  m.  to  the  value  of  (a)  (/;)  (t)  at  sunrise, 
or  subtract  the  increase  of  {a)  (b)  (c)  for  i  h.  21  m.  from  their  value  at  14  h.  27  m.  By  either 
process  we  obtain  (/)=  1665.  Proceed  again.  1667 — 1665  =  2  =  (Table  X.)  9  minutes  after  13  h.  6  m. 
or  13  h.  15  m.  Work  through  again  for  13  h.  15  m.  and  we  obtain  (/)  =  1668.  Proceed  again. 
1668 — 1667  =  I  =  (Table  X.)  4  minutes  before  13  h.  15  m.  or  13  h.  1 1  m.  Work  for  13  h.  1 1  m., 
and  we  at  last  have  1667,  the  known  ending  point.  It  is  thus  proved  that  13  h.  11  m.  after  sunrise 
is  the  absolutely  accurate  mean   ending  time  of  the  tithi  in  question  by  the  Siirya-Siddhanta. 

To  find  the  beginning  time  of  the  given  tithi.  We  may  find  this  independently  b>'  cal- 
culating as  before  the  (/)  at  sunrise  for  the  preceding  tithi,  (in  this  case  sukla  4th)  and  thence  finding 
its  ending  time.  But  in  the  example  given  we  calculate  it  from  the  (/)  of  the  given  tithi.  The 
tithi  begins  when  (/)  amounts  to  1333  (Table  VIll.).  or  (1463  — 1333)  130  before  sunrise  on  June 
7th.  130  is  (Table  X.)  9  h.  13  m.  Proceed  as  before,  but  deduct  the  {a)  (b)  (c)  instead  of  adding, 
and  (see  working  below)  we  eventually  find  that  (/)  amounts  exactly  to  1333  and  therefore  the 
tithi  begins  at  8  h.  26  m.  before  sunrise  on  June  7th,  that  is  1 5  h.  34  m.  after  sunrise  on  Tuesday 
the  6th.  The  beginning  and  ending  times  are  by  Ujjain  or  Lanka  mean  time.  If  we  want  the  time, 
for  instance,  for  Benares  the  difference  in  longitude  in  time,  29  minutes,  should  be  added  to  the 
above  result  (See  Ta,ble  XI.).     This,  however,  does  not  affect  the  day. 

It  is  often  very  necessary  to  know  the  moments  of  beginning  and  ending  of  a  tithi. 
Thus  our  result  brings  out  Wednesday,  June  7th,  but  since  the  Sth  tithi  began  1 5  h.  34  m.  after 
sunrise  on  Tuesday,  i.e.,  about  9  h.  34  m.  p.m..  it  might  well  happen  that  an  inscription  might 
record  a  ceremony  that  took  place  at  10  p.m.,  and  therefore  fix  the  day  as  Tuesdaj-  the  5th 
tithi,  which,  unless  the  facts   were  known,  would  appear  incorrect. 

I-"rom  Table  XII.  we  find  that  7th  June,  A.D.  1780,  was  a  Wednesday,  and  this  helps  to 
fix  that  day  as  current. 

We  now  give  the  working  of  Examii.k  i.

The  result,  3309,  fixes  the  day  as  sukla  loth  (Table  VIII.,  cols.  2,  3),  the  same  as  given. 

Answer. — (By  Table  IX.)  163  =  June  12th,  2  =  Monday.  The  year  is  A.D.  1780  (Table  II., 
Part  ii.).  The  tithi  will  end  at  (3333 — 3309:1;  24,  or  by  Table  X.)  I  h.  42  m.  after  sunrise,  since 
3309  represents  the  state  of  that  tithi  at  sunrise,  and  it  then  had  24  lunation-parts  to  run.  Note 
that  this  (/)  (3309)  is  less  by  24  than  3333,  the  ending  point  of  the  lOth  tithi;  that  24  is  less 
than  40 ;  and  that  the  equation  for  {Jj)  is  increasing.  This  shows  that  an  expunction  of  a  tithi 
will  shortly  occur  {Art.  142.) 

Example  in.  Required  the  week-day  and  equivalent  A.D.  of  Jyeshtha  sukla  ekadasi  (i  ith)

The  figure  of  (t),  3668,  shows  that  the  12th  tithi  and  not  the  required  tithi  (iith)  was

1780  — I  (Table  II.,  Part  iii.).  The  corresponding  amanta  month  is  Jyeshtha  (Table  II.,  Part  i.).

This  indicates  krishna  3rd,  the  same  tithi  as  given,  {d) — i  =171=    20th  June,   1780  A.D. 

From  these  last  two  examples  we  learn  that  krishna  3rd  stands  at  sunrise  on  Tuesday  20th 
as  well  as  Monday  19th.  It  is  therefore  a  repeated  or  vriddhi  tithi,  and  both  days  19th  and  20th 
correspond  to  it.     It  ends  on  Tuesday  (6000 — 5999=  1=)  4  minutes  after  sunrise. 

Example  VI.  Required  the  week-day  and  A.D.  equivalent  of  Karttika  sukla  5th  of  the 
Northern  Vikrama  year  1833  expired  (1834  current).     (See  example  2,  page  70.) 

The  given  year  is  Chaitradi.  It  matters  not  whether  the  month  is  amanta  or  purnimanta 
because  the  given  tithi  is  in  the  sukla  fortnight.  The  initial  day  of  the  given  year  falls  on 
(Table  I.,  col.  19)  20th  March  (80),  (col.  20)  4  Wednesday;  and  looking  in  Table  I.  along  the  line 
of  the  given  year,  we  find  in  col.  8  that  the  month  Bhadrapada  was  intercalated  or  added  (adhika) 
in  it.  So  the  number  of  months  which  intervened  between  the  beginning  of  the  year  and  the 
given  tithi  was  8,  one  more  than  in  ordinary  year.

(/)  being  not  within  40  of  the  ending  point  of  the  tithi  there  is  no  probability  of  a  repeti- 
tion or  expunction  shortly  preceding  or  following,  and  therefore  Saturday  the  i6th  November, 
1776  A.D.,  is  the  equivalent  of  the  given  tithi. 

E.n:ample  VII.  Required  the  week-day  and  A.D.  equivalent  of  amanta  Magha  krishna  ist 
of  Kali  4923  expired,  4924  current.  (See  example  4,  page  71.) 

The  given  year  is  Chaitradi.  Looking  in  Table  I.  along  the  line  of  the  given  year,  we 
see  that  its  initial  day  falls  on  24th  March  (83),  1822  A.D.,  i  Sunday,  and  that  (col.  8)  the  month 
(7)  Asvina  was  intercalated  and  (10)  Pausha  expunged.  So  that,  in  counting,  the  number  of  in- 
tervened months  is  the  same,  viz.,   10,  as  in  an  ordinary  year,  Magha  coming  after  Pausha.

The  figure  5472  indicates  (Table  VIII.)  kri.  2nd,  i.e.,  not  the  same  as  given  (ist),  but  the 
tithi    following.     We   therefore  subtract  i  from  (d)  and  (zf)  (Art.   139)  making  them  392  and  2. 

Since  (/)  is  not  within  40  of  the  ending  point  of  the  tithi,  there  is  no  probability  of  a 
kshaya  or  vriddhi  shortly  following  or  preceding,  (w)  2  =  Monday.  392  =  (Table  IX.)  27th 
January.     And  therefore  27th  January,  A.D.   1823,  Monday,  is  the  equivalent  of  the  given  tithi. 

Example  VIII.  Required  the  week-day  and  the  A.D.  equivalent  of  sukla  1 3th  of  the  Tulu 
month  Puntelu,  Kali  year  4853  expired,  4854  current,  "  Angiras  samvatsara "  in  the  luni-solar 
or  southern  60-year  cycle.     (See  example  5,  page  72.) 

The  initial  day  (Table  I.)  is  Old  Style  5th  March  (65),  A.D.  1752,  a  leap-year,  (5)  Thursday; 
and  Ashadha  was  intercalated.  The  Tulu  month  Puntelu  corresponds  to  the  Sanskrit  Pausha

commencement  of  that  (Meshadi)  year,  viz.,  (</)  the  date-indicator  given  in  brackets  after  the  day 
and  month  A.D.  in  col.  13,  (li-)  the  week-day  number  (c^/. /./),  and  the  time — either  in  ghatikas  and 
palas,  or  in  hours  and  minutes  as  desired — of  the  Mesha  sankranti  according  to  the /i;-j'a-.SVa'</'/w«te 
(cols.  15,  or  17).  For  a  BengaH  date  falling  between  A.D.  1100  and  1900,  take  the  time 
by  the  Surya-Siddhanta  from  cols,  ija  or  X^a.  When  the  result  is  wanted  for  a  place 
not  on  the  meridian  of  Ujjain,  apply  to  the  Mesha  sankranti  time  the  correction  given  in 
Table  XI.  Under  these  items  write  from  Table  111.,  cols.  6,  7,  8,  or  9  as  the  case  may  be,  the 
collective  duration  of  time  from  the  beginning  of  the  year  up  to  the  end  of  the  month  preceding 
the  given  one — days  under  (d),  week-day  under  (w),  and  hours  and  minutes  or  ghatikas  and  palas 
under  h.m.,  or  gh.p.  respectively.  Add  together  the  three  quantities.  If  the  sum  of  hours 
exceeds  24,  or  if  the  sum  of  ghatikas  exceeds  60,  write  down  the  remainder  only,  and  add  one 
each  to  {w)  and  (d).  If  the  sum  of  (w)  exceeds  7,  cast  out  sevens  from  it.  The  result  is  the 
time  of  the  astronomical  beginning  of  the  current  (given)  month.  Determine  its  civil  beginning 
by  the  rules  given  in  Art.  28  above. 

When  the  month  begins  civilly  on  the  same  day  as,  on  the  day  following,  or  on  the  third  day  after, 
the  sankranti  day,  subtract  i  from,  or  add  O,  or  l,  to  both  [d)  and  (zc),  and  then  to  each  of  them 
add  the  number  of  the  given  day,  casting  out  sevens  from  it  in  the  case  of  {w).  {w)  is  then  the 
required  week-day,  and  {d)  will  show,  by  Table  IX.,  the  A.D.  equivalent  of  the  given  day. 

N.B.  i.  When  it  is  not  certain  whether  the  given  year  is  Meshadi  or  of  another  kind, 
or  what  rule  for  the  civil  beginning  of  the  month  applies,   all  possible  ways  must  be  tried. 

N.B.  ii.     See  N.B.  ii..  Hi.,  /V.,  Art.  147,  under  the  rules  for  the  conversion  of  luni-solar  dates. 

Example  ix.  Required  the  week-day  and  the  date  A.D.  corresponding  to  (Tamil)  i8th 
Purattasi  of  Rudhirodgarin,  Kali  year  4904  expired,  (4905   currenti.     (See  example  7,  p.  yi.) 

The  given  year,  taken  as  a  solar  year,  is  Meshadi.  The  month  Purattadi,  or  Purattasi, 
corresponds  to  Kanya  (Table  II.,  Part  ii. ),  and  the  year  is  a  Tamil  (Southern)  one,  to  which 
the  Arya  Siddhanta  is  applicable  [see  Art.  21).  Looking  in  Table  I.  along  the  line  of  the  given 
year,  we  find  that  it  commenced  on   iith  April  (col.   13),  A.DJ|i8o3,  and  we  write  as  follows : —

This    shows    that    the    Kanya  sankranti  took  place  on  a  (4)  Wednesday,  at 

20  h.  35   m.  after  sunrise,   or  2.35   a.m.  on  the  European  Thursday.     (Always 

remember    that    the    Hindu    week-day   begins  at  sunrise.)     The  month  Kanya, 

therefore,  begins  civilly  on  Thursday.  ^  [Rtde  2(a),  Art.  28.)  We  add,  therefore  O

Example  X.  Required  the  week-day  and  A.D.  date  corresponding  to  the  20th  day  of 
the  Bengali  (solar)  month  Phalguna  of  Saka   1776  expired,   1777  current,  at  Calcutta. 

1     It  would  have  so  begun  if  the  saukxinti  occurred  at  7  p.m.  on  the  Wednesday,  or  at  any  time  after  sunset  (6  p.m.) 


88  THE  INDIAN  CALENDAR. 

The  year  is  Meshadi  and  from  Bengal,  to  which  the  Surya  Siddhanta  applies  {see  Art.  21). 
The  Bengali  month  Phalguna  corresponds  to  Kumbha  (Table  II.,  Part  ii.)-  The  year  com-

The  year  is  South  Indian.  It  is  not  Meshadi,  but  Siriihadi.  Its  corresponding  Saka  year 
is  1 77 1  current;  and  the  sign-name  of  the  month  corresponding  to  Avani  is  Siriiha  (Table  I.,

0  =  Saturday.  245  =  (Table  IX.)  Sept.  2nd. 

Answer. — Saturday,  September  2nd,   1848  A.D. 

EX/\^^'LE  XII.  Required  the  week-day  and  A.D.  date  corresponding  to  the  South 
Malayalam  Andu  1024,  19th  Chingam.  (The  calculations  in  Example  xi.  shew  that  the  South- 
Malayalam  month  Chingam  began  civilly  one  day  later  (Art.  28,  Rule  2b).  Therefore  the  Tamil 
20th  Avani  was  the   19th  South-Malayahmi.) 

Referring    to    Table  II.,  Part  ii.,  we  see  that  the  date  is  the  same  as  in  the  last  example. 

EX.VMPLE  XIII.  Required  the  week-day  and  A.D.  date  corresponding  to  the  North  Mala- 
yakm  Andu  1023,  20th  Chingam. 

Referring  to  Table  II.,  Part  ii.,  we  see  that  the  date  is  the  same  as  in  the  last  two  examples. 

(c.)     Conversion  into  dates  A.D.  of  titkis  zchic/t  are  coupled  with  solar  months. 

150.  Many  inscriptions  have  been  discovered  containing  dates,  in  expressing  which  a 
tithi  has  been  coupled,  not  with  a  lunar,  but  with  a  solar  month.  We  therefore  find  it  necessary 
to  give  rules  for  the  conversion  of  such  dates. 

Parts  of  two  lunar  months  corresponding  to  each  solar  month  are  noted  in  Table  II.,  Part  ii., 
col.  14.  Determine  by  Art.  1 19,  or  in  doubtful  cases  by  direct  calculation  made  under  Arts.  149 
and  151,  to  which  of  these  two  months  the  given  tithi  of  the  given  fortnight  belongs,  and  then 
proceed  according  to  the  rules  given  in  Art.   139. 

It  sometimes  happens  that  the  same  solar  month  contains  the  given  tithi  of  both  the  lunar 
months  noted  in  Table  II.,  Part  ii.,  col.  14,  one  occurring  at  the  beginning  of  it  and  the  other  at 
the  end.  Thus,  suppose  that  in  a  certain  year  the  solar  month  Mesha  commenced  on  the  luni- 
solar  tithi  Chaitra  sukla  ashtami  (8th)  and  ended  on  Vaisakha  sukla  dasami  (lOth).  In  this  case 
the  tithi  sukla  navami  (9th)  of  both  the  lunar  months  Chaitra  and  Vaisakha  fell  in  the  same 
solar  month  Mesha.  In  such  a  case  the  exact  corresponding  lunar  month  cannot  be  determined 
unless  the  vara  (week-day),  nakshatra,  or  yoga  is  given,  as  well  as  the  tithi.  If  it  is  given,  examine 
the  date  for  both  months,  and  after  ascertaining  when  the  given  details  agree  with  the  given 
tithi,  determine  the  date  accordingly. 

Ex.\MPLE  XIV.  Required  the  A.D.  year,  month,  and  day  corresponding  to  a  date  given  as 
follows; — "Saka  1187,  on  the  day  of  the  nakshatra  Rohini,  which  fell  on  Saturday  the 
thirteenth  tithi  of  the  second  fortnight  in  the  month  of  Mithuna."  ' 

It  is  not  stated  whether  the  Saka  year  is  expired  or  current.  We  will  therefore  try  it 
first  as  expired.  The  current  year  therefore  is  1188.  Turning  to  Table  I.  we  find  that  its  initial 
day,  Chaitra  sukla  ist,  falls  on  20th  March  (79),  Friday  (6),  A.D.  1265.  From  Table  II.,  Part  ii., 
col.  14,  we  find  that  parts  of  the  lunar  months  Jyeshtha  and  Ashadha  correspond  to  the  solar 
month  Mithuna.  The  Mesha  sankranti  in  that  year  falls  on  (Table  I.,  col.  13)  25th  March,  Wednesday, 
that  is  on  or  about  Chaitra  sukla  shashthi  (6th),  and  therefore  the  Mithuna  sankranti  falls  on 
(about)  Jyeshtha  sukla  da.saml  (loth)  and  the  Karka  sankranti  on  (about)  Ashadha  sukla  dvadasi 
(i2th)  {see  Art.  iig).  Thus  we  see  that  the  thirteenth  tithi  of  tlie  second  fortnight  falling  in 
the  solar  month  of  Mithuna  of  the  given  date  must  belong  to  amanta  Jyeshtha. 

1    This  date  is  from  an  actual  inscription  in  Southern  India.     (See  Ind.  Ant.,  XXII.,  p.  219).

(d.)     Conversion  of  dates  A.D. "  into  Hindu  luni-solar  dates. 

151.  Given  a  year,  month,  and  date  A.D.,  write  down  in  a  horizontal  line  \t.v)  the  week- 
day number,  and  (a),  (b).  (c)  (Table  I.,  cols.  20,  23,  24.  25)  of  the  initial  day  (Chaitra  s.  i)  of  the 
Hindu  Chaitradi  (Saka)  year  corresponding  to  the  given  year;  remembering  that  if  the  given 
date  A.D.  is  earlier  than  such  initial  day,  the  (jc)  (a)  (U)  (f)  of  the  previous  Hindu  year'  must  be 
taken.  Subtract  the  date-indicator  of  the  initial  date  (in  brackets.  Table  I.,  col.  19)  from  the  date 
number  of  the  given  date  (Table  IX.),  remembering  that,  if  the  initial  day  of  the  previous  Hindu 
year  has  been  taken,  the  number  to  be  taken  from  Table  IX.  is  that  on  the  right-hand  side,  and 
not  that  on  the  left  [see  also  N.B.  it.  below).  The  remainder  is  the  number  of  days  which  have 
intervened  between  the  beginning  of  the  Hindu  year  and  the  required  date.  Write  down,  under 
their  respective  heads,  the  (w)  {a)  {Ji)  (c)  of  the  number  of  intervening  days  from  Table  IV., 
and  add  them  together  as  before  (see  rules  for  conversion  of  limi-solar  dates  ittto  dates  A. D.).  Add 
to  {a)  the  equation  for  {b)  and  (c)  (Tables  VI.,  VII.)  and  the  sum  (/)  will  indicate  the  tithi  (Table  VIII.) 
at  sunrise  of  the  given  day ;  {w)  is  its  week-day.  To  the  number  of  intervening  days  add  its 
sixtieth  *  part.  See  the  number  of  tithis  next  lower  than  this  total  °  (Table  III.,  col.  3)  and  the 
lunar  month  along  the  same  line  (col.  2).  Then  this  month  is  the  month  preceding  the  required 
month,  and  the  following  month  is  the  required  month. 

When  there  is  an  added  month  in  the  year,  as  shown  along  the  line  in  col.  8  or  $a  of 
Table  I.,  if  it  comes  prior  to  the  resulting  month,  the  month  next  preceding  the  resulting  month 

It  is  found  by  actual  ralcuktion  under  Art.  1B6  that  the  given  nskshatra  falls  on  the  same  date,  and  therefore  we  know 
that  the  above  result  is  correct. 

2     Tliis  problem  is  easier  than  its  converse,  the  number  of  intervening  days  here  being  certain 

■'     If  the  Rule  I((i)  in  Art.  104  (Tabic  II,,  Part  iii.)   be  applied,  this  latter  part  of  the  rule  necessarily  follows. 

•'  A  o'Jth  part,  or  more  properly  03rd,  should  be  added,  but  by  adding  a  60th,  which  is  more  convenient,  there  will  be  no 
difference  in  the  ultimate  result      Neglect  the  fraction  half  or  less,  and  take  more  than  half  as  c<iuivalcnt  to  one. 

'<  This  total  is  the  approximate  number  of  tithis  which  have  intervened.  When  it  is  the  same  as,  or  very  near  to,  the  number  of 
tithis  forming  the  collective  duration  up  to  the  cud  of  a  month  (as  given  in  col.  S,  Tabic  111.),  there  will  be  some  doubt  about  the  re- 
quired month )  but  this  diHiculty  will  be  easily  solved  by  comparing  together  the  resulting  tithi  and  the  number  of  tithis  which  have  intervened. 


THE  HINDU  CALENDAR.  Qi 

is  the  required  month ;  if  the  added  niontli  is  the  same  as  the  resulting  month,  the  date  belongs 
to  that  added  month  itself;  and  if  the  resulting  month  comes  earlier  than  the  added  month, 
the  result  is  not  affected. 

When  there  is  a  suppressed  month  in  the  year,  if  it  is  the  same  as,  or  prior  to,  the  resulting 
month,  the  month  next  following  the  resulting  month  is  the  required  month.  If  it  is  subsequent 
to  the  resulting  month  the  result  is  not  affected.  If  the  resulting  month  falls  after  both  an 
added  and  suppressed  month  the  result  is  unaffected. 

From  the  date  in  a  Chaitradi  year  thus  found,  any  other  Hindu  year  corresponding  to 
it  can  be  found,  if  required,  by  reference  to  Table  II.,   Parts  ii.,  and  iii. 

The  tithi  thus  found  is  the  tithi  corresponding  to  the  given  date  A.D. ;  but  sometimes  a 
tithi  which  is  current  at  any  moment  of  an  A.D.  date  may  be  said  to  be  its  corresponding  tithi.

is  more  than  365  (taken  from  the  right-hand  side  of  Table  IX.)  and  the  year  next  preceding  it 
was  a  leap-year,  add   i  to  the  date-number  before  subtracting  the  date-indicator  from  it.

We  have  seen  in  example  i  above  {Art.  148)  that  this  Jyeshtha  5th  ended,  and  sukla  6th 
commenced,  at  13  h.  11  m.  after  sunrise  on  the  given  date;  and  after  that  hour  sukla  6th  cor- 
responded with  the  given  date.  Sukla  6th  therefore  may  be  sometimes  said  to  correspond

required   month.     Pausha  was  expunged,  but  being  later  than  Karttika  the  result  is  not  affected. 

Answer. — Sunday,  Karttika  (Telugu),  or  Jarde  (Tulu)  (Table  II.,  Part]  ii.),  kr.  3rd  of  the

The  given  date  is  prior  to  Chaitra  .sukla  1  in  the  given  year.  We  take  therefore  the 
initial  day  in  the  previous  year,  A.D.  1540,  which  falls  on  Tuesday  the  9th^  March  (69).

315  +  ^  =  320  tithis.  The  next  lower  number  to  320  in  col.  3,  Table  III.,  is 
300,  which  shews  Pausha  as  preceding  the  required  month,  and  the  required  month  would 
therefore  be  Magha.  Asvina,  however,  which  is  prior  to  Magha,  was  intercalary  in  this  year; 
Pausha,  therefore,  would  be  the  required  month ;  but  it  was  expunged ;  Magha,  therefore,  becomes 
again  the  required  month.  Adhika  Asvina  and  kshaya  Pausha  being  both  prior  to  Magha,  they 
do  not  affect  the  result.  By  Table  II.  amanta  Magha  krishna  is  purnimanta  Phalguna  krishna. 
Therefore    purnimanta  Phalguna   krishna    7th,  Tuesday,  Saka   1463  current,  is  the  required  date.

of  the  Mesha  sankranti  day  from  the  date-number  of  the  given  date  (Table  IX.),  remembering 
that  if  the  Mesha  sankranti  time  of  the  previous  Hindu  year  is  taken  the  number  to  be  taken 
from  Table  IX.  is  that  on  the  right-hand  side,  and  not  that  on  the  left  [see  also  Art.  iji,  N.B.  ii.) ;  the 
remainder  is  the  number  of  days  which  intervened  between  the  Mesha  sankranti  and  the  given

Ascertain  the  day  of  the  civil  beginning  of  the  current  required  month  by  the  rules  in 
Art.  28.  When  it  falls  on  the  same  day  as  the  safikranti  day,  or  the  following,  or  the  third  day, 
respectively,  subtract  i  from,  or  add  o  or  i  to,  both  [d)  and  iw).  Subtract  (</)  from  the  date-number 
of  the  given  date.  The  remainder  is  the  required  Hindu  day.  Add  that  remainder,  casting  out 
sevens  from  it,  to  (w).     The  sum  is  the  week-day  required. 

From  the  Meshadi  year  and  the  sign-name  of  the  month  thus  found,  any  other  corresponding 
Hindu  year  can  be  found  by  reference  to  Table  III.,  Parts  ii.,  and  iii.

Answer. — Monday,  19th  day  of  the  month  Vrishabha,  Tamil  Vaigasi,  of  Saka  1726 
current  (1725  expired);  Kali  4904  expired  (Table  I.,  or  Table  II.,  Part  iii.);  Tinnevelly  Andu 
978,  Vaigasi   19th;  North  Malayajam  Andu  978,  Edavam  19th. 

The  Vrishabha  sankranti  took  place  8  h.  19  m.  after  sunrise,  viz.,  not  witliin  the  first -itlis 
of  the  day.  Therefore  by  the  South  Malayajam  system  the  month  Vrishabha  began  civilly,  not 
on  (s)  Thursday,  but  on  the  following  day  (6)  Friday.  Therefore  we  have  to  add  or  subtract 
nothing  from  132  and  5.  Subtracting  132  from  150,  the  remainder,  i8th,  is  the  required  day. 
Adding  (18-5-7)  to  5  (w)  we  get  (2)  Monday  as  the  required  week-day.  Therefore  Monday  iSth 
of  Edavam,  Kollam  Andu  978,  is  the  required  South  Malayalam  equivalent.

153.  We  now  proceed  to  give  rules  for  finding  the  karanas  on  a  given  day, — the 
exact  moments  of  their  beginning  and  ending,  and  the  karana  current  at  sunrise  on  any  given 
day,  or  at  any  moment  of  any  given  day. 

The  karanas  ^  of  a  given  tithi  may  be  found  by  the  following  rule.  Multiply  the  number 
of  expired  tithis  by  two.  Divide  this  by  7 ;  and  the  remainder  is  the  karana  for  the  current  half 
of  the  tithi.  Exainple. — Find  the  karana  for  the  second  half  of  krishna  8th.  The  number  of 
expired  tithis  from  the  beginning  of  the  month  is  (15  +7-!=)  22-i-.  22-i-X2=:4S.  Casting 
out  sevens  the  3rd,  or  Kaulava,  is  the  required  karana. 

154.  To  find  the  exact  moments  on  which  the  karanas  corresponding  to  a  given  tithi 
begin  and  end.  Find  the  duration  of  the  tithi  from  its  beginning  and  ending  moments,  as  calculated 
by  the  method  given  in  Arts.  139,  144,  and  145  above.  The  first  half  of  the  tithi  is  the  period 
of  duration  of  its  first  karana,  and  the  second  half  that  of  the  second. 

EX/\MPLE  XXII.  Find  the  karanas,  and  the  periods  of  their  duration,  current  on  Jyeshtha 
sukla  paiichami  (5th)  of  the  Saka  year  1702  expired  (1703  current).  From  Table  VIII.,  cols.  4 
and  5  we  observe  that  (i)  Bava  is  the  first,  and  (2)  Balava  is  the  second,  karana  corresponding 
to  the  5th  tithi.  In  the  first  example  above  {Art.  1^8)  we  have  found  that  the  tithi  commenced 
on  Tuesday,  6th  June,  A.D.  1 780.  at  1 5  h.  34  m.  after  mean  sunrise,  and  that  it  ended  on  Wednesday, 
7th  June,  at  13  h.  11  m.  after  mean  sunrise.  It  lasted  therefore  for  21  h.  37  m.  (8  h.  26  m.  on 
Tuesday  and  13  h.  1 1  m.  on  Wednesday).  Half  of  this  duration  is  10  h.  48  m.  The  Bava 
karana  lasted  therefore  from  1  5  h.  34  m.  after  mean  sunrise  on  Tuesday,  June  6th,  to  2  h.  22  m. 
after  mean  sunrise  on  Wednesday,  June  7th,  and  the  Balava  karana  lasted  thence  to  the  end  of  the  tithi. 

155.  The  karana  at  sunrise  or  at  any  other  time  can  of  course  easily  be  found  by  the 
above  method.  It  can  also  be  calculated  independently  by  finding  the  (/)  for  the  time  given. 
Its  beginning  or  ending  time  also  can  be  found,  with  its  index,  by  the  same  method  as  is  used 
for  that  of  a  tithi.  The  index  of  a  karana  can  be  easily  found  from  that  of  a  tithi  by  finding 
the    middle    point    of  the    latter.     For    example,    the    index    of  tlie   middle  point  of  sukla    14th

is  4500,  or  4333  +  half  the  difference  between  4333  and  4667  {Table  VIII.),  and  therefore  the 
indices  for  the  beginning  and  ending  of  the  5th  karana  on  sukla  14th  are  4333  and  4500,  and 
of  the  6th  karana  on  the  same  tithi  4500  and  4667. 

EX/\Mi'LE  xxii(a).  Find  the  karana  at  sunrise  on  Wednesday  the  7th  June,  A.D.  1780, 
Jyeshtha  sukla  5th,  Saka   1702  expired  (1703  current). 

In  examples  i.  and  xv.  above  we  have  found  (/)  at  the  given  sunrise  to  be  1463.  Turning 
with  this  to  Table  VIII.  we  see  that  the  karana  was  the  ist  or  2nd.  The  index  of  the  first  is 
1333  to   1500,  and  therefore  the  first  karana,  Bava,  was  current  at  the  given  sunri.se. 

(g)  Determination  of  Nakshatras. 
156.  To  find  the  Jiakshatra  at  sunrise,  or  at  any  other  moment,  0/  an  Indian  or  European 
date.  If  the  given  date  be  other  than  a  tithi  or  a  European  date,  turn  it  into  one  or  other 
of  these.  F"ind  the  (a)  {I?)  {c)  and  (/)  for  the  given  moment  by  the  method  given  in  Arts.  139, 
148  or  151,  (Examples  i.  or  xv.)  above.  Multiply  ((■)by  ten;  add  7207  to  the  product,  and  from  this 
sum  subtract  the  equation  for  {c)  (Table  VII.).  Call  the  remainder  {s).  Add  (s)  to  (t).  Call  the  result  («). 
Taken  as  an  index,  («)  shows,  by  Table  VIII.,  col.  6,  7,  8,  the  nakshatra  current  at  the  given 
moment  as  calculated  by  the  ordinary  system. 

157.  If  the  nakshatra  according  to  the  Garga  or  Brahma  Siddhdnta  system  is  required, 
use  cols.  9  or  10  respectively  of  Table  VIII. 

158.  The  beginning  or  ending  time  of  the  nakshatra  can  be  calculated  in  the  same 
manner  as  that  of  a  tithi.  Since  (r)  is  expressed  in  loooths,  and  looooths  of  it  are  neglected,  the 
time  will  not  be  absolutely  correct.

(i.)      Verification  of  Indian  dates. 

1 60.  {See  Art.  ij2.)  The  following  is  an  example  of  the  facility  afforded  by  the  Tables 
in  this  volume  for  verifying  Indian  dates. 

Example  xxv.  Suppose  an  inscription  to  contain  the  following  record  of  its  date, — 
"Saka  666,  Karttika  krishna  amavasya  (30),  Sunday,  nakshatra  Hasta."  The  problem  is  to  verify 
this  date  and  find  its  equivalent  A.D.  There  is  nothing  here  to  shew  whether  the  given  year 
is  current  or  expired,  whether  the  given  month  is  amanta  or  purnimanta,  and  whether,  if  the 
year  be  the  current  one,  the  intercalary  month  in  it  was  taken  as  true  or  mean.^ 

First  let  us  suppose  that  the  year  is  an  expired  one  (667  current)  and  the  month  amanta. 
There  was  no  intercalary  month  in  that  year.  The  given  month  would  therefore  be  the  eighth, 
and  the  number  of  intervening  months  from  the  beginning  of  the  year  is  7.

This  kri.  30  therefore  can  be  connected  with  a  Sunday,  and  if  the  nakshatra  comes  right — Hasta 
— then  this  would  be  the  given  date.     We  calculate  the  nakshatra  at  sunrise  on  Sunday.

Now  if  Karttika  in  the  given  record  be  purnimanta,  the  amanta  month  corresponding  (Table  II.,

does  29  or  30  days  from  the  date  calculated,  might  fall  on  a  Sunday.     Let  us  see  if  it  did  so.

Now  let  us  suppose  that  the  given  year  666  is  a  current  amanta  year.  Then  the  given

therefore  again  wrong.  The  amavasya  of  the  previous  month  (29  days  back)  would  end  on  a 
Wednesday  or  perhaps  Tuesday,  so  that  cannot  help  us.  If  we  go  back  yet  a  month  more,  it 
is  possible  that  the  krishna  amavasya  might  fall  on  a  Sunday.  That  month  could  only  be  called 
Karttika  if  it  were  treated  according  to  the  purnimanta  system  and  if  there  were  no  intercalary 
month.     The  given  month  would  then  be  the  7th  in  the  year.     We  test  this  as  usual.

that  mean  and  not  true  intercalary  months  were  in  use  in  A.D.  743,  because  we  have  found 
that  there  was  no  intercalary  month  prior  to  the  given  month  Karttika.  The  mean  intercalary  month 
in  that  year  (Table  I.)  was  the  9th  month,  Margasirsha,  and  of  course  Karttika  was  unaffected  by  it.

PART    V. 


THE   MUHAMMADAN   CALENDAR. 

161.  The  Muhammadan  era  of  the  Hijra,  or  "flight,"  dates  from  the  flight  of  Muhammad 
(Anglice  Mahomet)  which  took  place,  according  to  the  Hissabi  or  astronomical  reckoning,  on  the 
evening  of  July  15th,  A.D.  622.  But  in  the  Hela/i,  or  chronological  reckoning,  Friday,  July  i6th, 
is  made  the  initial  date.     The  era  was  introduced  by  the  Khalif  Umar. 


I02  THE  INDIAN  CALENDAR. 

162.  The  year  is  purely  lunar,  and  the  month  begins  with  the  first  heliacal  rising  of  the 
moon  after  the  new  moon.  The  year  is  one  of  354  days,  and  of  355  in  intercalary  years.  The 
months  have  alternately  30  and  29  days  each  (but  see  below),  with  an  extra  day  added  to  the 
last  month  eleven  times  in  a  cycle  of  thirty  years.  These  are  usually  taken  as  the  2nd,  5th,  7th, 
lOth,  13th,  15th,  i8th,  2ist,  24th,  26th,  and  29th  in  the  cycle,  but  Jervis  gives  the  8th,  i6th, 
19th,  and  27th  as  intercalary  instead  of  the  7th,  15th,  18th  and  26th,  though  he  mentions  the 
usual  list.  Ulug  Beg  mentions  the  i6th  as  a  leap-year.  It  may  be  taken  as  certain  that  the 
practice  varies  in  different  countries,  and  sometimes  even  at  different  periods  in  the  same  country. 

30  years  are  equal  to  (354  x  30+  11=)  10,631  days  and  the  mean  length  of  the  year  is 
354,^  days.i 

Since  each  Hijra  year  begins  10  or  11  civil  days  earlier  than  the  last,  in  the  course  of 
33  years  the  beginning  of  the  Muhammadan  year  runs  through  the  whole  course  of  the  seasons. 

163.  Table  XVI.  gives  a  complete  list  of  the  initial  dates  of  the  Muhammadan  Hijra  years 
from  A.D.  300  to  A.D.  1 900.  The  asterisk  in  col.  i  shews  the  leap-years,  when  the  year  consists 
of  355  days,  an  extra  day  being  added  to  the  last  month  Zi'1-hijjat.  The  numbers  in  brackets 
following  the  date  in  col.  3  refer  to  Table  IX.  (see  abo've,  Art.  pij),  and  are  for  purposes  of 
cilculaticn  as  shewn  below.

164.  Since  the  Muhammadan  year  invariably  begins  with  the  heliacal  rising  of  the  moon, 
or  her  first  observed  appearance  on  the  western  horizon  shortly  after  the  sunset  following  the 
new-moon  (the  amavasya  day  of  the  Hindu  luni-solar  calendar),  it  follows  that  this  rising  is  due  about 
the  end  of  the  first  tithi  (sukla  pratipada)  of  every  lunar  month,  and  that  she  is  actually  seen  on 
the  evening  of  the  civil  day  corresponding  to  the  1st  or  2nd  tithi  of  the  sukla  (bright)  fortnight. 
As,  however,  the  Muhammadan  day — contrary  to  Hindu  practice,  which  counts  the  day  from 
sunrise  to  sunrise — consists  of  the  period  from  sunset  to  sunset,  the  first  date  of  a  Muhammadan 
month  is  always  entered  in  Hindu  almanacks  as  corresponding  with  the  next  following  Hindu 
civil  day.  For  instance,  if  the  heliacal  rising  of  the  moon  takes  place  shortly  after  sunset  on  a 
Saturday,    the    ist    day    of   the    Muhammadan  month  is,  in  Hindu  pafichangs,  coupled  with  tlie 


'     \  year  of  the  Hijra  =  0.970223  of  0  Gregorian  year,  and  a  Gregorian  ycai-=  1  030C9  ycare  of  the  Hijra.     Thus  32Gri^- 
rian  years  arc  about  c<jual  to  33  years  of  the  Hijra,  or  more  nearly  163  Gregoriau  ycam  are  within  less  than  a  day  of  168  Hijra  years. 


THE  MUHAMMADAN  CALENDAR.

Sunday  which  bec^ins  at  Ihc  next  sunrise.  Rut  the  Muhanimadan  day  and  the  first  day 
of  the  Muhanimadan  month  begin  witli  the  Saturday  sunset.  {See  Arl.  jo,  and  the  paiichahg 
extract  attached.) 

165.  It  will  be  well  to  note  that  where  the  first  tithi  of  a  month  ends  not  less  than  5 
ghatikas,  about  two  hours,  before  sunset,  the  heliacal  rising  of  the  moon  will  most  probably  take 
place  on  the  same  evening ;  but  where  the  first  tithi  ends  5  ghatikas  or  more  after  sunset  the 
heliacal  rising  will  probably  not  take  place  till  the  following  evening.  When  the  first  tithi  ends 
within  these  two  periods,  i.e.,  5  ghatikas  before  or  after  sunset,  the  day  of  the  heliacal  rising 
can  only  be  ascertained  by  elaborate  calculations.  In  the  panchang  extract  appended  to  Art.  30 
it  is  noted  that  the  heliacal  rising  of  the  moon  takes  place  on  the  day  corresponding  to  September  ist. 

166.  It  must  also  be  specially  noted  that  variation  of  latitude  and  longitude  .sometimes 
causes  a  difference  in  the  number  of  days  in  a  month;  for  since  the  beginning  of  the  Muhammadan 
month  depends  on  the  heliacal  rising  of  the  moon,  the  month  may  begin  a  day  earlier  at  one 
place  than  at  another,  and  therefore  the  following  month  may  contain  in  one  case  a  day  more 
than  in  the  other.  Hence  it  is  not  right  to  lay  down  a  law  for  all  places  in  the  world  where 
Muhammadan  reckoning  is  used,  asserting  that  invariably  months  have  alternately  29  and  30 
days.  The  month  Safar,  for  instance,  is  said  to  have  29  days,  but  in  the  panchang  extract  given

Old  and  New  style. 

168.  The  New  Style  was  introduced  into  all  the  Roman  Catholic  countries  in  Europe 
from  October  5th,  1582  A.D.,  the  year  1600  remaining  a  leap-year,  while  it  was  ordained  that 
1700,  1800,  and  1900  should  be  common  and  not  leap-years.  This  was  not  introduced  into 
England  till  September  3rd,  A.D.  1752.  In  the  Table  of  Muhammadan  initial  dates  we  have 
given  the  comparative  dates  according  to  English  computation,  and  if  it  is  desired  to  assimilate 
the  date  to  that  of  any  Catholic  country,  10  days  must  be  added  to  the  initial  dates  given  by 
us  from  Hijra  991  to  Hijra  iiii  inclusive,  and  11  days  from  H.  11 12  to  1165  inclusive.  Thus, 
for  Catholic  countries  H.   1002  must  be  taken  as  beginning  on  September  27th,  A.D.  1593. 


1     So   far  as  I  know  no  European  chronologist  of  the  present  century  has  noticed  this  point.     Tables  could  be  constructed  for 
the  heliacal  rising  of  the  moon  in  every  month  of  every  year,  but  it  would  be  too  great  a  work  for  the  present  publication.     [S.  B.  D.] 


104  THE  INDIAN  CALENDAR. 

The  Catholic  dates  will  be  found  in  Professor  R.  Wiistenfeld's  "  VergleichungsTabellen 
der  Miihainiiiadanisckcn  iind  Christlichen  Zcitrcclumng"  {Leipzic  18^4). 

To  convert  a  date  A.H.  into  a  date  A.D. 

169.  Rule  I.  Given  a  Muhammadan  year,  month,  and  date.  Take  down  {w)  the  week- 
day number  of  the  initial  day  of  the  given  year  from  Table  XVI.,  col.  2,  and  {d)  the  date-indicator 
in  brackets  given  in  col.  3  of  the  same  Table  {Art.  i6t,  and  pj  above)  Add  to  each  the 
collective  duration  up  to  the  end  of  the  month  preceding  the  one  given,  as  also  the  moment  of 
the  given  date  minus  i  {Table  in  Art.  i6j  above).  Of  the  two  totals  the  first  gives  the  day 
of  the  week  by  casting  out  sevens,  and  the  second  gives  the  day  of  the  month  with  reference 
to  Table  IX. 

Rule  2.  Where  the  day  indicated  by  the  second  total  falls  on  or  after  February  29th  in 
an  English  leap-year,  reduce  the  total  by  one  day. 

Rule  3.     For  Old  and  New  Style  between  Hijra  991  and    1165  see  the  preceding  article. 

Example   i.     Required  the  English  equivalent  of  20th  Muharram,  A.H.   1260. 
A.H.   1260  begins  (Table  XVI.)  January  22nd,   1844.

21  41  =  (Table  IX.)  Feb.   loth. 

Cast  out  sevens  =         21 

o  =:  Saturday. 
Answer. — Saturday,  February  loth,  A.D.   1844. 

Examplf;  2.     Required  the  English  equivalent  of  9th  Rajab,  A.H.   131 1. 
A.H.   1311  begins  July   15th,  1893. 

w.  d.

(26)  3  —  Tuesday. 
Answer. — Tuesday,  January   i6th,  A.D.   1894. 

This  last  example  has  been  designedly  introduced  to  prove  the  point  we  have  insisted  on 
viz.,  that  care  must  be  exercised  in  dealing  with  Muhammadan  dates.  According  to  Traill's 
Indian  Diary,  Comparative  Table  of  Dates,  giving  the  correspondence  of  English,  Bengali,  N.W. 
Fasali,  "Samvat",  Muhammadan,  and  Burmese  dates,  Rajab  1st  corresponded  with  January  9th, 
and  therefore  Rajab  9th  was  Wednesday,  January  17th,  but  Letts  and  Whitaker  give  Rajab  ist 
as  corresponding  with  January  8th,  and  therefore  Rajab  9th  —  Tuesday,  January  16th,  as  by 
our  Tables. 


THE  .MLII.\MM.\n.\X  CALENDAR.  105 

To  convert  a  date  A.D.  into  a  date  A.H. 

170.  Rule  I.  Take  down  (w)  the  week-day  number  of  the  initial  day  of  the  corresponding 
Muhammadan  year,  or  the  year  previous  if  the  given  date  falls  before  its  initial  date,  from  Table 
XVI.,  col.  2,  and  [d)  the  corresponding  date-indicator  in  brackets  as  given  in  col.  3.  Subtract  («f) 
from  the  collective  duration  up  to  the  given  A.D.  date,  as  given  in  Table  IX.,  Parts  i.  or  ii.  as 
the  case  may  be.  .-Xdd  the  remainder  to  (zy).  From  the  same  remainder  subtract  the  collective 
duration  given  in  the  Table  in  Art.  163  above  which  is  next  lowest,  and  add  r.  Of  these  two 
totals  (ic)  gives,  by  casting  out  sevens,  the  day  of  the  week,  and  (</)  the  date  of  the  Muhammadan 
montli  following  that  whose  collective  duration  was  taken. 

Rule  2.  When  the  given  English  date  is  in  a  leap-year,  and  falls  on  or  after  February  29th, 
or  when  its  date-number  is  more  than  365  (taken  from  the  right-hand  side  of  Table  IX.),  and 
the  year  preceding  it  was  a  leap-year,  add   i  to  the  collective  duration  given  in  Table  IX. 

Rule  3.     For  Old  and  New  Style  see  above.  Art.   167. 

Example.     Required  the  Muhammadan  equivalent  of  January   i6th,  894  A.D. 
Since  by  Table  XVI.  we  see  that  A.H.   1312  began  July  5th,  1894  A.D.,  it  is  clear  that 
we  must  take  the  figures  of  the  previous  year.     This  gives  us  the  following : 

o  196 

Jan.   16th  (Table  IX.)  -381 
—  196 

185 185

Answer. — Tuesday,  Rajab  9th,  A.H.   131 1. 


Perpetual  Muhammadan  Calendar. 

By  the  kindness  of  Dr.  J.  Burgess  we  are  able  to  publish  the  following  perpetual  Muham- 
madan Calendar,  which  is  verj'  simple  and  may  be  found  of  use.  Where  the  week-day  is  known 
this  Calendar  gives  a  choice  of  four  or  five  days  in  the  month.  But  where  it  is  not  known  it  must 
be  found,  and  in  that  case  our  own  process  will  be  the  simpler,  besides  fixing  the  day  exactly 
instead  of  merely  giving  a  choice  of  several  days.

From  the  Hijra  date  subtract  the  ne.xt  greatest  at  the  head  of  the  first  Table,  and  in  that 
column  find  the  Dominical  letter  corresponding  to  the  remainder.  In  the  second  Table,  with  the 
Dominical  letter  opposite  the  given  month,  run  down  to  the  week-days,  and  on  the  left  will  be 
found  the  dates  and  vice  versa. 

Example.  For  Ramadan,  A.H.  1310.  The  nearest  year  above  is  1290,  difference  20;  in 
the  same  column  with  1290,  and  in  line  with  20,  is  F.  In  line  with  Ramadan  and  the  column 
F  we  find  Sunday  ist,  8th,   15th,  22nd,  29th,  etc. 

•     In    the    II    years    markid    with   an    asterisk    the    month    Zi'l-ka'dut    has    3(1    dii\>;    in    all  others    29.     Thus    AH.   1300 
(1290  +  16)  had  355  days,  the  30th  of  Zi'l-kuMut   being  Sunday.

Al MLIAHV  TABLE  TO  TABLES  VI.  .VND  VII 

Not 


the  difference  iu  the  (Tables  VI.,  VII.)  equation-figures 
for  the  nearest  figures  of  the  argument.  Take  this  ditTcreucc  in 
the  left-hand  column  of  this  Tabic,  and  run  the  eye  to  the 
right  till  it  reaches  the  figure  standing  under  the  last  figure 
of  the  given  ai'gumcnt.  The  result  is  to  be  added  to  or  sub- 
tracted from  the  cc|Uiit ion-figure  for  the  lower  of  the  two  argu- 
ment figures,  according  as  the  scale  is  increasing  or  decreasing. 

Thus;  Table  VI.,  argument  334.  Difference  between  equations 
for  330  and  340  is  (263  —  258)  5,  decreasing.  The  figure 
in  the  AuxiliaiT  Table  opposite  5  and  under  4  is  2  The 
proper  equation  therefore  is  263  —  2  or  261. 

Argument  837.  DiflVreucc  between  830  and  840  is  (22  —  17) 
5.  increasing.  The  figure  opposite  5  and  under  7  is  3  or  4.  The 
cipialion  therefore  is  17  -f  3  =  20,  or  17  +  4  zz  21.

the  samvatsara  of  the  mean-siyn  (Northern)  GO-ycar  cycle  (Table  J ,  col.  7). 

N.B.  ii.  Jupiter's  sign  by  his  apparent  longitude  is  either  the  same,  as  or  tbc  next  preceding,  or  the  next  sncceetling 
his  mean-sign.  Thus,  in  Prabhava  Jupiter  stands  in  mean  Kumbha,  when  be  may  have  been  cither  in  apparent  Makara, 
Kumbha,  or  Mina.

ECLIPSES   OF   THE   SUN   IN   INDIA.' 
By  Dr.  Robert  Schram. 


A  complete  list  of  all  eclipses  of  the  sun  for  any  part  of  the  globe  between  the  years 
1 200  B.C.  and  2160  A.D.  has  been  published  by  Oppolzer  in  his  "Canon  der  Finsternisse", 
(Denkschriften  der  mathematisch  naturwissenscliaftliclien  Classe  der  Kais.  Akademie  der  Wissen- 
schaftcti  in  Wieji,  Vol.  LII.  1887).  In  this  work  are  given  for  every  eclipse  all  the  data  necessary 
for  the  calculation  of  the  path  of  the  shadow  on  the  earth's  surface,  and  of  its  beginning,  greatest 
phase,  and  end  for  any  particular  place.  But  inasmuch  as  the  problem  is  a  complicated  one  tlie 
calculations  required  are  also  unavoidably  complicated.  It  takes  considerable  time  to  work  out 
by  the  exact  formula;  the  time  of  the  greatest  phase  of  a  given  eclipse  for  a  particular  place, 
and  when,  as  is  often  the  case  with  Indian  inscriptions,  we  are  not  sure  of  the  year  in  which 
a  reported  eclipse  has  taken  place,  and  it  is  therefore  necessary  to  calculate  for  a  large  number 
of  eclipses,  the  work  becomes  almost  impossible. 

The  use,  however,  of  the  exact  formulae  is  seldom  necessary.  In  most  cases  it  is  sufficient 
to    make    use    of  a  close  approximation,  or  still  better  of  tables  based  on  approximate  formuhe. 

Such  tables  I  have  published  under  the  title  "  Tafeln  zur  Berechnung  der  naheren  Umstande 
der  Sonnenfinsternisse",  (Denkschriften  der  mathematisch  7iatunvissenschaftlichen  Classe  der  Kais. 
Akademie  der  Wisscnschaften  in  Wien,  Vol.  LI.  1886)  and  the  Tables  B,  C,  and  D,  now  given 
are  based  on  those.  That  is  to  say.  they  contain  extracts  from  those  tables,  somewhat  modified 
and  containing  only  what  is  of  interest  for  the  continent  of  India.  Table  A  is  a  modified  extract 
from  Oppolzer's  Canon,  containing  only  eclipses  visible  in  India  and  the  immediate  neighbourhood. 
All  others  are  eliminated,  and  thus  the  work  of  calculation  is  greatly  diminished,  as  no  other 
eclipses  need  be  examined  to  ascertain  their  visibility  at  the  given  place. 

Oppolzer's  Canon  gives  the  following  elements : 

Date  of  eclipse  and  Greenwich  mean  civil  time  of  conjunction  in  longitude. 
L'  =  longitude  of  Sun  and  Moon,  which  is  of  course  identical  at  the  middle  of  the  eclipse. 
Z   n  Equation  of  time  in  degrees, 
f     =  Obliquity  of  the  ecliptic. 
,  p  sinP    beinc    equal  to     ^'"  ^''~^\    where    b    and    b'    denote    the    moon's    and    sun's 

log    pi    "^  fa        "1  s,Q  (T— 5r') 

latitude,  i?  and  iv'  their  respective  parallaxes. 
1    ~    ,   q  cosQ  being  the  hourly  motion  of  p  sinP. 
log  AL  =  the  hourly  motion  of  "'"'  '.'  '''"  '^T'''^   where  L  denotes  the  moon's,  L'  the  sun's  longitude. 

°  '  sm  (t — t') 

1  I  propose  to  publish,  ritlier  in  a  second  edition  of  this  work,  if  such  should  be  called  for,  or  in  one  of  the  scientific 
periodicals,  tables  of  lunar  eclipses,  compiled  from  Oppolzer's  Canon  der  Fimtemitae,  and  containing  those  visible  in  India  during 
the  period  comprised  in  the  present  volume.     [R.  S.]

u',  =:  radius  of  shadow. 

f,    =  angle  of  shadow's  cone. 

y    =  shortest  distance  of  shadow's  centre  from  earth's  centre. 

(I,   =  Sun's  hour-angle  at  Greenwich  at  the  moment  of  this  shortest  distance. 

log  n    =  hourly  motion  of  shadow's  centre. 

log  sin  S'j  „     ,     ,    ,.     ^. 
,  °        .  '  Sun  s  declination, 
log  cos  5  \ 

N'  ■=.  angle  of  moon's  orbit  with  declination  circle  (N'  —  N  —  h,  where  N  is  the  angle  of 

the  moon's  orbit  with  latitude  circle,  and  tan  h  ^  cos  L'  cos  f. 

G  sin  g  sin    G  rz  sin  V  sin  N'. 

K  sin  g  cos  G  =  cos  N'. 

sin  g  cos  g  zz  cos  V  sin  N'. 

sin  k      sin  k  sin    K  ==  sin  N'. 

cos  g      sin  k  cos  K  =:  sin  §'  cos  N'. 

cos  k  J  cos  k  =  cos  S'  cos  N'. 

With  these  elements  the  calculation  of  the  moment  of  greatest  phase  of  eclipse  at  a  given 

place,  whose  longitude  from  Greenwich  is  A,  and  whose  latitude  is  ^,  is  found  by  the  formula: : 

log  cpi  ■=  0,9966  log  (p. 

m  sinM  ~  7  —  0,9966  cos  g  sin  0i  +  cos  <?)j  sin  g  sin  (G  +  t„). 

m  cosM  rz  (t„  —  A  —  /ct)  -^  —  0,9966  sin  Cpj  cos  k  +  cos  i^j  sin  k  cos  (K  +  t„). 
m'sinM'=: —  0,2618  cos  cp^  sin  g  cos  (G  +  t„). 
m'cosM'=n —  0,2618  cos  cj>,  sin  k  sin  (K  +  tj. 

ti  =  t„-  15  1^,  cos  (M  +  M'). 
Making  firstly  t„  =  A  +  (/.,  this  formuhe  gives  the  value  of  t,.  This  value  is  put  in  the 
formulae  instead  of  t„  and  the  calculation  repeated,  and  thus  we  get  a  closer  value  for  t;  which, 
again  put  in  the  place  of  t„,  gives  a  second  corrected  value  of  t.  Calculation  by  these  formulje 
must  be  repeated  as  long  as  the  new  value  of  t  differs  from  the  former  one,  but,  as  a  general 
rule,  three  or  four  times  suffices.  The  last  value  of  t  is  then  the  hour-angle  of  the  sun  at  the 
given   place  for  the  moment  of  greatest  phase  at  that  place.     With  the  last  value  of  m  we  find 

the  magnitude  of  the  greatest  phase  at  the  given  place  in  digits  =  6    ,  _^ — —r- 

These  calculations  are,  as  will  be  seen,  very  complicated,  and  for  other  than  astronomical 
problems  it  is  hardly  ever  necessary  to  attain  to  so  great  a  degree  of  accuracy.  For  ordinary  purposes 
they  may  be  greatly  simplified,  as  it  suffices  to  merely  fix  the  hour-angle  to  the  nearest  degree. 
The  angle  N  is  very  nearly  constant,  its  mean  value  being  N  =  84°3  or  N  =  95°7 
according  as  the  moon  is  in  the  a.scending  or  descending  node.  Which  of  these  is  the  case  is 
always  shown  by  the  value  of  P,  as  P  is  always  near  o"  when  the  moon  is  in  the  ascending, 
and  near  180°  when  she  is  in  the  descending  node.  Taking  also  for  f  a  mean  value,  say  fzz  23°6o, 
and  making  the  calculations  separately  for  the  cases  of  the  ascending  and  descending  node,  we 
find  that  S',  h,  N',  sin  g,  cos  g,  sin  k,  cos  k,  G  and  K  are  all  dependents  of  L',  and  can 
therefore  be  tabulated  for  single  values  of  L',  say  from  10  to  10  degrees. 
The  second  of  the  above  formulae 

m  cos  M  =  (t,,  —  A  —  /!*)  ^  —  0,9966  sin  (?),  cos  k  -|-  cos  (p,  sin  k  cos  (K  -f  t„) 
will  give  for  t  the  value 


ECLIPSES  OE  THE  SUN  /N  INDIA.  1 1 1 

t  =(;.  +  jc*)  +  ^  X  0,9966  sin  <J),  cos  k  -  ^  cos  <$i  sin  k  cos  (K  +  t)  +  ^  m  cos  M. 
The  angle  M  being,  at  the  moment   of  greatest  phase,  always  sufficiently  near  90°  or  270", 
— m  cosM  can  be  neglected;  and,  introducing  for  —    its   mean    value    27,544,    and    identifying    (J), 
with  <p,  the  value  of  t„  can  simply  be  determined  by  the  expression 

t  zr  (A  +  jtt)  +  27,447  sin  0  cos  k  -  27,544  cos  $  sin  k  cos  (K  +  t) 
instead  of  determining  it  by  the  whole  of  the  above  formulje.  Now  in  this  last  expression  k  and  K 
are  mere  dependents  on  L',  and  therefore  the  values  of  t  can  be  tabulated  for  each  value  ofL' 
with  the  two  arguments  ?. -}-  ijl  and  cp.  Table  D  is  constructed  on  this  formula,  only  instead 
of  counting  t  in  degrees  and  from  true  noon  it  is  counted,  for  Indian  purposes,  in  ghatikas  and 
their  tenths  from  true  sunrise. 

The  value  of  t  for  the  instant  of  the  greatest  phase  at  the  given  place  being  found,  it  can 
be  introduced  into  the  formula 

m  sin  M  =  y  —  0,9966  cos  g  sin  Cpj  +  cos  Cpj  sin  g  sin  (G  +  t). 
As  M  is  always  near  90°  or  270°,  sin  M  can  be  considered  equal  to  +1,  so  we  have 
+  m  =  y  —  0,9966  cos  g  sin  cp  -\-  cos  <p  sin  g  sin  (G  +  t) 
where  the  sign  ±  is  to  be  selected  so  that  the  value  of  m  may  always  be  positive. 
The  second  part  of  the  above  expression 

—  0,9966  cos  g  sincp  +  coscp  sing  sin(G  +  t) 
(which,  for  the  sake  of  brevity,  may  be  called  by  the  letter  V)  contains  only  values  which 
directly  depend  on  L',  such  as  cos  g,  sin  g,  G,  or  which,  for  a  given  value  of  L',  depend  only 
on  A  +  /!t  and  <p,  and  therefore  the  values  of  r'  can  be  tabulated  for  each  value  of  L'  with  the 
two  arguments  X  +  /*  and  (p.  This  has  been  done  in  the  Table  B  which  follows,  but  instead  of 
r'  the  value  i  -f  r'  =  T  has  been  tabulated  to  avoid  negative  numbers.  The  value  of  m  can 
then  be  found  from 

m  =  +  (y  +  r'). 

Both  Tables  B  and  D  ought  to  consist  of  two  separate  tables,  one  containing  the  values  of 
L'  from  0°  to  360°  in  the  case  of  P  being  near  o",  the  other  containing  the  values  of  L'  from 
0°  to  360°  for  the  case  of  P  being  near  180".  To  avoid  this  division  into  two  tables,  and  the 
trouble  of  having  always  to  remember  whether  P  is  near  0°  or  180°,  the  two  tables  are  combined 
into  one  single  one;  but,  whilst  in  the  case  of  P  being  near  0°  L'  is  given  as  argument,  in  the 
case  of  P  being  near  180"  the  table  contains,  instead  of  L',  L'  +  400"  as  argument.  We  need 
therefore  no  longer  care  whether  the  moon  is  in  the  ascending  or  descending  node,  but  simply 
take  the  argument  as  given  in  the  first  table. 

With  the  value  of  m,  found  by  m  =:  +  (7  +  r'),  we  can  find  the  magnitude  of  the  greatest 

phase    in    digits  —  6  -p- £- — —7,  which  formula  can  also  be  tabulated  with  the  arguments  u'„  and 

m,  or  with  u'.  and  (7  +  r).  This  has  been  done  in  Table  C.  As  u',  when  abbreviated  to  two 
places  of  decimals  has  only  the  six  values  0.53,  0.54,  0.55,  0.56,  0.57  and  0.58,  every  column 
of  this  Table  is  calculated  for  another  value  of  u'^,  whilst  to  y  the  constant  5  has  been  added 
so  that  all  values  in  the  first  Table  may  be  positive.  Instead  of  giving  u',  directly,  its  last 
cipher  is  given  as  tenths  to  the  value  of  (7  +  r)  so  that  there  is  no  need  for  ascertaining  the 
value  of  u',. 

Of  all  elements,  then,  given  by  the  Canon  we  want  only  the  following  ones; — 
Date  of  eclipse,  and  Greenwich  mean  time  of  conjunction  in  longitude. 


1,2  ECLIPSES  OF  THE  SUN  IN  INDIA. 

L'  —  longitude  of  sun  and  moon. 
P       (only  indication  if  P  is  near  o"  or  near   i8o°). 
u',  =  radius  of  shadow. 

y  =  shortest  distance  of  shadow's  centre  from  earth's  centre. 
fi  ■=.  Sun's  hour-angle  at  Greenwich  at  the  moment  of  this  shortest  distance. 

(There  is  no  necessity  for  attempting  any  further  explanation  of  all  the  other  elements 
and  formulae  noted  above,  which  would  be  impossible  without  going  into  the  whole  theory,  of 
eclipses.     Such  an  attempt  is  not  called   for  in  a  work  of  this  kind.) 

These  elements  are  given  in  Table  A  in  the  following  form: — 
Column   I.     Date  of  eclipse, — year,  month,  and  day;  Old  Style  till  2  September,  1752  A.D.,  New 

Style  from   14  September,   1752. 

Column  2.     Lanka  time  of  conjunction  in  longitude,  counted  from  mean  sunrise  in  hours  and  minutes. 

Column  3.     L  =  longitude    of   sun    and    moon    in    degrees,   when  P  is  near  0°;  or  longitude   of 

sun    and    moon    plus    400°,    when    P   is  near    180°;  so  that   numbers  in  this  column 

under  360°  give  directly  the  value  of  this  longitude,  and  indicate  that  P  is  near  0°, 

or  that  the  moon  is  in  the  ascending  node,  whilst  numbers  over  400°  must  be  diminished 

by  400  when  it  is  desired  to  ascertain  this  longitude.  At  the    same    time    these   last 

indicate  that  P  is  near   180°,  that  is  that  the  moon  is  in  the  descending  node. 

Column  4.     /tt  =  Sun's  hour-angle  at  Greenwich  at  the  moment  of  shortest  distance  of  shadow's 

centre  from   earth. 

Column  5.     y'  =  ten    times    the    second  decimal  cipher  of  u'^  +5+7-     So  the   tenths  of  the 

numbers    of  this    column    give    the    last    cipher    of   u'„  whose  first  ciphers  are  0.5, 

and  the  rest  of  the  number  diminished  by  5  gives  the  value  of  y. 

For  instance ;  the  Une  975  II  14,  o  h  52  m,  730°,  202°,  74.66  shows  that  on  the  14th  February, 

A.D.  975,    the  conjunction  took  place  at  oh  52m  after  mean  Lanka  sunrise,  that  the  longitude 

of  sun  and  moon  was  330°  (the  moon  in  the  descending  node),  yi,  —  202°,  u'^  =  0,57,  and  y  =  —  0,34. 

Use  of  the  Tables. 

Table  A  gives,  in  the  first  column,  the  year,  month,  and  day  of  all  eclipses  visible  in  any  part 
of  India,  or  quite  close  to  the  frontiers  of  India.  The  frontiers  are  purposely  taken  on  rather  too 
large  a  scale,  but  this  is  a  fault  on  the  right  side.  The  letters  appended  shew  the  kind  of  eclipse; 
"a"  stands  for  annular,  "t"  for  total,  "p"  for  partial.  Eclipses  of  the  last  kind  are  visible  only 
as  very  slight  ones  in  India  and  are  therefore  not  of  much  importance.'  When  the  letter  is  in 
brackets  the  meaning  is  that  the  eclipse  was  only  visible  quite  on  the  frontiers  or  even  beyond  them, 
and  was  without  importance.  When  the  letter  is  marked  with  an  asterisk  it  shews  that  the  eclipse 
was  either  total  or  annular  in  India  or  close  to  it,  and  is  therefore  one  of  greater  importance. 
The  second  column  shews,  in  hours  and  minutes  counted  from  mean  sunri.se  at  Lanka,  the  time 
of  conjunction  in  longitude.  This  column  serves  only  as  an  indication  as  to  whether  the  eclipse 
took  place  in  the  morning  or  afternoon  ;  for  the  period  of  the  greatest  phase  at  any  particular 
place  may  differ  very  sensibly  from  the  time  thus  given,  and  mu.st  in  every  case  be  determined 
from  Table  D,  if  required.  The  third,  fourth,  and  fifth  columns,  headed  respectively  L,  ,«,  and  y\ 
furnish  the  arguments  for  the  following  Tables  B,  C,  and  D,  by  which  can  be  found  the  magnitude 
and  the  moment  of  the  greatest  phase  of  the  eclipse  at  a  particular  place.

ECLIPSES  OE  THE  SUN  IN  INDIA.  ,  i;^ 

Table  H  (as  well  as  Table  D)  consists  of  seventy-two  different  Tables,  each  of  which  is 
calculated  for  a  particular  value  of  L  taken  in  tens  of  degrees.  Kach  of  these  little  tables  is  a 
table  with  a  double  argument,  giving  tlie  value  of  y" .  The  arguments  are,  vertically  the  latitude 
<$,  and  horizontally  the  longitude  A  of  the  given  place,  the  latter  being  stated  in  degrees  from 
Greenwich  and  augmented  by  the  value  of  ,«  given  in  Table  A.  The  reader  selects  that  table 
which  is  nearest  to  the  value  of  L  given  by  Table  A,  and  determines  from  it,  by  interpolation 
with  the  arguments  (p  and  /+/ic,  the  value  of  7".  If  a  greater  degree  of  accuracy  is  desired,  it  is 
necessary  to  determine,  with  the  arguments  :p  and  a-|-;«,  the  value  of  7"  by  both  tables  preceding 
and    following    the  given  value  of  L,  and  to  interpolate  between  the  two  values  of  y"  so  found. 

The  final  value  of  y"  is  added  to  the  value  of  y'  given  by  Table  A,  and  this  value  ot 
y'  +  y"  serves  as  argunjent  for  Table  C,  which  gives  directly  the  magnitude  of  the  greatest  phase 
at  the  given  place  in  digits,  or  twelfths  of  the  sun's  diameter. 

Table  D  is  arranged  just  like  Table  B,  and  gives,  with  the  arguments  ^  and  /.+  //,  the 
moment  of  the  greatest  phase  at  the  given  place  in  ghatikas  and  their  tenths,  counted  from  true 
sunrise  at  the  given  place. 

The  first  value  in  each  line  of  Tables  B  and  D  corresponds  to  a  moment  before  sunrise 
and  the  last  value  in  each  line  to  a  moment  after  sunset.  Both  values  are  given  only  for  pur- 
poses of  interpolation.  Therefore  in  both  cases  the  greatest  phase  is  invisible  when  /  +  At  coincides 
exactly  with  the  first  or  last  value  of  the  line,  and  still  more  so  when  it  is  less  than  the  first  or 
greater  than  the  last  value.  But  in  both  cases,  when  the  difference  between  A  +  /Ci  and  the  last 
value  given  does  not  exceed  15  degrees,  it  is  possible  that  in  the  given  place  the  end  of  the 
eclipse  might  have  been  visible  after  sunrise,  or  the  beginning  of  the  eclipse  before  sunset. 
As  the  tables  give  only  the  time  for  the  greatest  phase  this  question  must  be  decided  by  direct 
calculation. 

EXAMPLES. 

Example  i.  Was  the  echpse  of  the  20th  June,  AD.  540,  visible  at  Jalna,  whose  latitude 
(p,  is  19°  48'  N.,  and  whose  longitude,  A,  is  75°  54'  E.  ? 

Table  A  gives:  540  VI  20,  /h  57m                    L  =  490  [/.  =1  314°  y   :=  35,34

phase,  24.8  ghatikas  or  24  gh.  48  pa.  after  true  sunrise  at  Jalna. 

Example  2.  Was  the  same  eclipse  visible  at  Multan,  whose  latitude  O  is  30"  13'  N.,  and

Table  D.    L  =  480   gives,  with  cp  =  8°  and  A  +  ;tt  —  40,  for  the  moment  of  totality  26,2  ghatikas 
or  26  gh.    12  pa.  after  true  sunrise  at  Trivandrum. 

ExAMi'LE  4.  Was  the  same  eclipse  visible  at  Lahore  whose  latitude,  cp,  is  3i''33'N., 
and  longitude,  A,  74°  16'  E..? 

Table  A  gives:  913  VI  7,  8  h.  35  m.              L  =  48o  A^  =  323°  y'=: 44,98 

Lahore  has  ($  =  32°  and A=    74° 

Table  B.    L  =:  480  gives,  with  (p  =  32°  and  A -f  ^a  =  37°, •/' =   0,69 

r'  +  r"=:  45 ,67 

Table  C  gives,  with  7' +  7"  =  45,67,  the  magnitude  of  the  greatest  phase  4,8  digits. 
Table  D.    L  =  48o    gives,    with  0=332°  and  A  +  ^  =  37°,  for  the  moment  of  the  greatest  phase 
26,9  ghatikas,  or  26  gh.  54  pa.  after  true  sunrise  at  Lahore. 

In  all  these  examples  the  value  of  L  (Table  A)  was  divisible  by  10,  and  therefore  a  special 
table  for  this  value  was  found  in  Table  B.  When  the  value  of  L  is  not  divisible  by  10,  as 
will  mostly  be  the  case,  there  is  no  special  table  exactly  fitting  the  given  value.  In  such  a 
case  we  may  take  the  small  table  in  Table  B  for  the  value  of  L  nearest  to  that  given.  Thus  for 
instance,  if  L  is  233  we  may  work  by  the  table  L  —  230,  or  when  L  is  487  we  may  work  by 
the  Table  L  =  490  and  proceed  as  before,  but  the  result  will  not  be  very  accurate.  The  better  course 
is  to  take  the  value  of  y"  from  both  the  table  next  preceding  and  the  table  nex-t  following  the 
given  value  of  L,  and  to  fix  a  value  of  y"  between  the  two.  ^  Thus  for  L  =  233  we  take  the 
value  of  y"  both  from  Table  230  and  from  Table  240  and  fix  its  truer  value  from  the  two. 
But  where  the  only  question  is  whether  an  eclipse  was  visible  at  a  given  place  and  there  is  no 
necessity  to  ascertain  its  magnitude,  the  first  process  is  sufificient. 

Example  5.  Was  the  eclipse  of  the  15  January,  A.D.  1032,  visible  at  Karachi,  whose 
latitude,  Cp,  is    24°  53'  N.,  and  longitude.  A,  66°57'E.?

longitude,  A,  74°  S  5 '  E.  ? 
Table  A  gives:   1495  VIII   20,  4  h.  55  m.  L=i55  ^  =:  269°  7' =  54,62 

Srinagar  has  ^  :=  34" A  =    75° 

A  +  /^  =  344° 
Table  B.  L  1 50  gives,  with  ,?  =  34"  and  7  +  />!•  =  344".      7"  =  °'72  /  q^  for  L  1 5  5  7"  =    o  7 1 

TableB.  Li  60 7"  =  0,69  V  '     " '— 

7' +  7"  =  55.33 

7'  +  7"  is  less  than  the  values  contained  in  Table  C. 

This  indicates  that  Srinagar  is  too  much  to  the  north  to  see  the  eclipse. 

It  was  intended  that  these  tables  should  be  accompanied  by  maps  shewing  the  centre-lines, 
across  the  continent  of  India,  of  all  eclipses  of  the  sun  between  A.D.  300  and  1900,  but  it  has 
not  been  found  possible  to  complete  them  in  time,  owing  to  the  numerous  calculations  that  have 
to  be  made  in  order  that  the  path  of  the  shadow  may  be  exactly  marked  in  each  case.  Such 
maps  would  plainly  be  of  considerable  value  as  a  first  approximation,  and  I  hope  to  be  able 
soon  to  publish  them  separately. 

Vienna,   November,    1895.  R-  SCHRAM.

A  better  description  of  the  sankrantis  may  be<^iven  thus.  The  sayana  Mesha  saiikranti,  al.so 
called  a  Vishuva  sankranti,  marks  the  vernal  equinox,  or  the  moment  of  the  sun's  passing  the  first  point 
of  Aries.  The  sayana  Karka  sankranti,  three  solar  months  later,  is  also  called  the  dakshinayana 
(soutliward-going)  sankranti.  It  is  tlie  point  of  the  summer  solstice,  and  marks  the  moment  when 
the  sun  turns  southward.  The  sayana  Tula  sankranti,  three  solar  months  later,  also  called  a 
Vishuva  sankranti,  marks  the  autumnal  equino.x  or  the  moment  of  the  sun's  passing  the  first  point 
of  Libra.  The  sayana  Makara  sankranti,  three  solar  months  later  still,  is  also  called  the  uttarayana 
(northward-going)  sankranti.  It  is  the  other  solstitial  point,  the  moment  when  the  sun  turns  north- 
ward. The  nirayana  (or  sidereal)  Mesha  and  Tula  sankrantis  are  also  called  Vishuva  sankrantis, 
and  the  nirayana  Karka  and  Makara  sankrantis  are  also,  though  erroneously,  called  dakshinayana 
and  uttarayana  sankrantis.

Line  6.  After  "we  proceed  thus"  add; — "The  interval  of  time  between  the  initial  point 
of  the  luni-solar  year  ( Table  /.,  Cols,  ip,  20)  and  the  initial  point  of  the  solar  year  by  the  Surya 
Siddhanta  {Table  /.,   Cols,  ij,  i^,  and  ija,  or  lya  ^)  can  be  easily  found. 

Lijie  p.  After  "Art.  151  "  add; — "or  according  to  the  process  in  Example  i,  Art.  148." 
Line  16.  After  "intercalations  and  suppressions"  add;—V^e  will  give  an  example.  In 
Professor  Chhatre's  Table,  Karttika  is  intercalary  in  Saka  551  expired,  A.D.  629 — 30  (see  Ind. 
Ant.,  XXILL.  p.  106);  while  in  our  Table  Asvina  is  the  intercalary  month  for  that  year.  Let 
us  work  for  Asvina.  First  we  want  the  tithi-index  [t)  for  the  moments  of  the  Kanya  and  Tula 
sankrantis.  In  the  given  year  we  have  {Table  /.,  Col.  19)  the  initial  point  of  the  luni-solar  year 
at  sunrise  on  1st  March,  A.D.  629,  (=60),  and  {Cols,  ij,  17)  the  initial  point  of  the  solar  year  by 
the  Ary a- Siddhanta  (=  17  h.  32  m.  after  sunrise  on  March  19th  of  the  same  year).  By  the  Table  given 
below  (p.  151)  we  find  that  the  initial  moment  of  the  solar  year  by  the  Siirya  Siddhanta  was 
I  5  minutes  later  than  that  by  the  Ary  a  Siddhanta.  Thus  we  have  the  interval  between  the  initial  points 
of  the  luni-solar  and  solar  years,  according  to  the  Surya  Siddhanta, 'as  18  days,  17  hours,  and  47 
minutes.  Adding  this  to  the  collective  duration  up  to  the  moment  of  the  Kanya  and  Tula  sankrantis 
[Table  LIL,  Col.  p),  i.e.,  156  days,  u  hours  and  52  minutes,  and  186  days,  22  hours  and  27 
minutes  respectively,  we  get  175  days,  5  hours,  39  minutes,  and  205  days,  16  hours,  14  minutes. 
We  work  for  these  moments  according  to  the  usual  rules  (Method  C,  p.  Jj).

This  proves  that  the  moon  was  waning  at  the  Kanya  sankranti,  and  waxing  at  the  Tula 
sankranti,  and  therefore  Asvina  was  intercalary  [sec  Art.  /j).  This  being  so,  Karttika  could  not 
have  been  intercalary. 

The  above  constitutes  an  easy  method  of  working  out  all  the  intercalations  and  suppressions 
of  months.  To  still  further  simplify  matters  we  give  a  Table  shewing  the  sankrantis  whose  moments 
it  is  necessary  to  fix  in  order  to  establish  these  intercalations  and  suppressions.  Equation  c  is 
always  the  same  at  the  moment  of  the  sankrantis  and  we  give  its  figure  here  to  save  further  reference.

THE  INDIAN  CALENDAR. 


(which    gives    the    increase    in    zc.    a.    b.   c.  for  the  different  year-lengths)  it  is  easy  to  calculate 
with  exactness  the  initial  w.  a.  b.  c.  for  subsequent  luni-solar  years.  Thus —

To  ascertain  how  many  days  there  were  in  each  year  it  is  only  necessary  to  use  col.  19 
of  Table  I.  with  Table  IX.  Kali  3403  began  26th  February.  Table  IX.  gives  the  figure  57  on 
left-hand  side,  and  422  on  the  right-hand  side,  the  former  being  entered  in  our  Table  I. 

But  since  A.D.  300  was  a  leap-year  we  must  take,  not  422,  but  423,  as  the  proper  figure. 
Kali  3402  began  8th  March  (68).  423—68=355,  and  this  in  days  was  the  length  of  Kali  3402. 
Similarly  (17th  March)  441  — (26  February)  57  =  384,  and  this  was  the  length  of  Kali  3403  ;  and  so  on. 

It  may  be  interesting  to  note  that  in  every  century  there  are  on  an  average  one  year  of 
385  days,  four  years  of  383  days,  twenty-three  years  of  355  days,  thirty-two  years  of  384 
days,  and  forty  years  of  354  days. 


P.  98. 

To  e7id  of  Art.  160,  add  the  following; — "160(a).  To  find  the  tropical  (say ana)  as  well 
as  the  sidereal  (nirayana)  saiikranti.  Find  the  time  of  the  nirayana  saiikranti  (xiCd' ^r/.  2j)  required, 
by  adding  to  the  time  of  the  Mesha  sankranti  for  the  y&z.x  {Table  /.,  Cols,  /j /c  77^?)  the  collective 
duration  of  the  nirayana  sankranti  as  given  in  col.  5  of  Table  III.,  under  head  "  sankrantis."  Then, 
roughly,  the  sayana  sankranti  took  place  as  many  ghatikas  before  or  after  the  nirayana  one  as 
there  are  years  between  Saka  445  current,  and  the  year  next  following  or  next  preceding  the 
given  year,  respectively. 

"  For  more  accurate  purposes,  however,  the  following  calculation  must  be  made.  Find  the 
number  of  years  intervening  between  Saka  445  current,  or  Saka  422  current  in  the  case  of  the 
Siirya  Siddhanta,  and  the  given  year.  Multiply  that  number  by  i;,  or  ^^  in  the  case  of  the 
Surya  Siddhanta.  Take  the  product  as  in  ayanamsas,  or  the  amount  of  precession  in  degrees. 
Multiply  the  length  of  the  solar  month  [Art.  2./)  in  which  the  sayana  sankranti  occurs  (as  shewn 
in  the  preceding  paragraph)  by  these  ayanamsas  and  divide  by  30.  Take  the  result  as  days ; 
and  by  so  many  days  will  the  sayana  sankranti  take  place  before  or  after  the  nirayana  saiikranti 
of  the  same  name,  according  as  the  given  year  is  after  or  before  Saka  445  (or  Saka  422).  This 
will  be  found  sufficiently  accurate,  though  it  is  liable  to  a  maximum  error  (in  A.D.  1900)  of  15 
ghatikas.  The  maximum  error  by  the  first  rule  is  one  day  in  A.D.  1900.  The  smaller  the 
distance  of  the  given  date  from  Saka  445  (or  422)  the  smaller  will  be  the  error.  For  absolute 
accuracy  special  Tables  would  have  to  be  constructed,  and  it  seems  hardly  necessary  to  do  this.

The  following  example  will  shew  the  method  of  work.

"i6o(i^).     The  following  is  a  summary  of  points  to  be  remembered  in  calculating  and  verifying 
dates.     The  li.st,  however,  is  not  exhaustive. 

A.  A  luni-solar  date  may  be  interpreted  as  follows : — 

(I.)     With  reference  to  current  and  expired  years,  and  to  amanta  and  piirnimanta  months, 
(.v)     When  the  year  of  the  given  era  is  Chaitradi. 

(«)•    For  dates  in  bright  fortnights,  two  possible  cases ;  (i.)  expired  year,  (ii.)  current  year. 
[b]     For    dates    in    dark  fortnights,  four  possible  cases;  viz.,  expired  year,  or  current 
year,  according  to  both  the  puriiimanta  and  amanta  system  of  months, 
(li)     When  the  year  is  both  Chaitradi  and  non-Chaitradi. 

(a)     For  dates  in  bright  fortnights,  three  possible  cases;  viz.,  (i)  Chaitradi  year  current, 
(2)    Chaitradi    year    expired  i^  non-Chaitradi    year    current,  (3)  non-Chaitradi  year 
expired. 
(/')     Dates    in  dark  fortnights,  si.x  possible  cases ;  viz. ,  the  same  three  )-ears  according 
to  both  the  pijri.iim.inta  and  amanta  system  of  months. 

For  months  which  are  common  to  Chaitradi  and  non-Chaitradi  years,  the  cases  will 
be  as  in  (a). 
(II.)     With  reference  to  tlie  tithi. 

All    the    above    cases,    supposing  the  tithi  was  current,  (i)  at  the  given  time  as  well 
as  at  sunrise  of  the  given  day,  {2)  for  the  given  time  of  the  da\-,  but  not  at  its  sunri.se. 

B.  A  solar  date  may  be  interpreted  as  follows : — 
(I.)     With  reference  to  current  and  expired  years. 

(a)     When   the  year  of  the  given  era  is  Meshadi,  two  possible  cases ;  [a]  expired  year, 
[!>)  current  year. 


ADDITIONS  AND  CORRECTIONS.  155 

(b)     When    the  year  of  tlie  given  era  is  both  Meshiidi  and  non-Meshadi,  three  possible 
cases ;    {a)    Meshadi    year   current,    (/')    Mcshadi    year   expired  —  non-Mcshadi  year 
current,  (i)  non-Meshadi  year  expired. 
(II.)     With  reference  to  the  civil  beginning  of  the  month,  all  the  cases  in  Art.  28. 

C.  When  the  era  of  a  date  is  not  known,  all  known  possible  eras  should  be  tried. 

D.  (a)  According  to  Hindu  Astronomy  a  tithi  of  a  bright  or  dark  fortnight  of  a  montli 
never  stands  at  sunrise  on  the  same  week-day  more  than  once  in  three  consecutive  years.  For 
instance,  if  Chaitra  .sukla  pratipada  stands  at  sunrise  on  a  Sunday  in  one  year,  it  cannot  stand 
at  sunrise  on  Sunday  in  the  year  next  preceding  or  next  following. 

(/^)  It  can  only,  in  one  very  rare  case,  end  on  the  same  week-day  in  two  consecutive 
years,  and  that  is  when  there  are  thirteen  lunar  months  between  the  first  and  second.  There 
are  only  seven  instances '  of  it  in  the   1600  years  from  A.D.  300  to  1900. 

(c)  It  cannot  end  on  the  same  week-day  more  than  twice  in  three  consecutive  years. 

(d)  But  a  tithi  can  be  connected  with  the  same  week-day  for  two  consecutive  years  if 
there  is  a  confusion  of  systems  in  the  naming  of  the  civil  day,  naming,  that  is,  not  only  by 
the  tithi  current  at  sunrise,  but  also  by  the  tithi  current  during  any  time  of  tliat  day.  Even 
this,  however,  can  only  take  place  when  there  are  thirteen  lunar  months  between  the  two. 
If,  for  instance,  Chaitra  sukla  ist  be  current  during,  though  not  at  sunrise  on,  a  Sunday  in  one 
year;  next  year,  if  an  added  month  intervenes,  it  may  stand  at  sunrise  on  a  Sunday,  and  con- 
sequently   it    may    be    connected  with  a  Sunday  in  both  these  (consecutive)  years. 

(1?)  A  tithi  of  an  amanta  month  of  one  year  may  end  on  the  same  week-day  as  it  did 
in  the  pijrnimanta  month   of  the  same  name  during  the  preceding  year. 

(/)  The  interval  between  the  weekdays  connected  with  a  tithi  in  two  consecutive  years, 
when  there  are  12  months  between  them,  is  generally  four,  and  sometimes  five ;  but  when  thirteen 
lunar  months  intervene,  the  interval  is  generally  one  of  six  weekdays.  For  instance,  if  Chaitra 
sukla  1st  ends  on  Sunday  (=1)  in  one  year,  it  ends  next  year  generally  on  (i  4-  4  =  5  =)  Thursday. 
and  sometimes  on(i  +5  =  6  =)  Friday,  provided  there  is  no  added  month  between  the  two.  If 
there  is  an  added  month  it  will  probably  end  on(i  -f6  =  o=)  Saturday. 

{g)  According  to  Hindu  Astronomy  the  minimum  length  of  a  lunar  month  is  29  days, 
20  ghatikas,  and  the  maximum  29  days  and  43  ghatikas.  Hence  the  interval  between  the  week- 
days of  a  tithi  in  two  consecutive  months  is  generally  one  or  two.  If,  for  instance,  Chaitra  sukla 
pratipada  falls  on  a  Sunday,  then  Vaisakha  sukla  pratipada  may  end  on  Monday  or  Tuesday.  But  by 
the  existence  of  the  two  systems  of  naming  a  civil  day  from  the  tithi  current  at  its  sunrise,  as  well 
as  by  that  current'at  any  time  in  the  day,  this  interval  may  sometimes  be  increased  to  three,  and 
we  may  find  Vai.sakha  sukla  pratipada,  in  the  above  example,  connected  with  a  Wednesday. 

E.  {a)  A  sankranti  cannot  occur  on  the  same  week-day  for  at  least  the  four  years  preceding 
and  four  following.

I.       To  find,  first,  the  mean  longitude  of  Jupiter  and  the  sun. 

(i.)  Find  the  mean  longitude  of  Jupiter  at  the  time  of  the  Mesha  sankranti  by  the  following

156  THE  INDIAN  CALENDAR. 

the  time  of  the  apparent  Mesha  sai'ikranti  (as  given  in  Table  I.,  cols.  13  to  17,  or  i/rf).  The 
sum  is  the  moment  of  the  mean  Mesha  sankranti.  F'ind  the  interval  in  days,  ghatikas,  and  palas 
between  this  and  the  given  time  (for  which  Jupiter's  place  is  to  be  calculated).  Calculate  the 
mean  motion  of  Jupiter  during  the  interval  by  Table  Y  below,  and  add  it  to  the  mean 
longitude  at  the  moment  of  mean  Mesha  sankranti.  The  sum  is  the  mean  place  of  Jupiter  at 
the  given  moment.  The  motion  of  the  sun  during  the  interval  (Table  Y)  is  the  sun's  mean  place 
at  the  given  moment. 

II.     To  find,  secondly,  the  apparent  longitude. 

(i.)  Subtract  the  sun's  mean  longitude  from  that  of  Jupiter.  Call  the  remainder  the  "  first 
commutation".  If  it  be  more  than  six  signs,  subtract  it  from  twelve  signs,  and  use  the  remainder. 
With  this  argument  find  the  parallax  by  Table  Z  below.  Parallax  is  tiihius  when  the  commuta- 
tion is  not  more  than  six  signs,  plus  when  it  is  more  than  six.  Apply  half  the  parallax  to  the 
mean  longitude  of  Jupiter,  and  subtract  from  the  sum  the  longitude  of  Jupiter's  aphelion,  as  given  at 
the  bottom  of  Table  Z  below.  The  remainder  is  the  anomaly.  (If  this  is  more  than  six  signs, 
subtract  it  from  twelve  signs,  as  before,  and  use  the  remainder.)  With  this  argument  find  the  equ  ition 
of  the  centre  '  by  Table  Z.  This  is  minus  or  plus  according  as  the  anomaly  is  o  to  6,  or  6  to  12 
signs.     Apply  it  to  the  mean  longitude  of  Jupiter,  and  the  result  is  the  heliocentric  longitude. 

(ii.)  Apply  the  equation  of  the  centre  (plus  or  minus)  to  the  first  commutation  ;  the  sum  is  the 
"second  commutation".  If  it  is  more  than  six  signs,  use,  as  before,  the  difference  between  it 
and  twelve  signs.  With  this  second  commutation  as  argument  find  the  parallax  as  before.  Apply 
it  (whole)  to  Jupiter's  heliocentric  longitude,  and  the  result  is  Jupiter's  apparent  longitude. 

Example.  We  have  a  date  in  an  inscription. — "In  the  year  opposite  Kollam  year  389, 
Jupiter  being  in  Kumbha,  and  the  sun   18  days  old  in  Mina,  Thursday,  loth  lunar  day  of  Pushya"  " 

Calculating  by  our  method  "C"  in  the  Text,  we  find  that  the  date  corresponds  to  Saka 
1 138  current,  Chaitra  sukla  dasami  (lOth),  Pushya  nakshatra,  the  i8th  day  of  the  solar  month 
Mina  of  Kollam  390  of  our  Tables,  or  March   12th,  A.D.   1215.^

350,  then,  is  the  interval  from  mean  Mesha  sankranti  to   12  gh.  23  pa.  on  the  given  day. 
The  interval  between  Saka   i  current  and  Saka   1137  current  is   1136  years. 

•  Neglecting  the  minutes  and  seeonJs  of  anomaly,  the  equation  mnv  be  taken  for  degrees.  Thus,  if  the  anomaly  is  149°

'  The  year  389  in  the  original  seems  to  be  the  etpired  year  .  There  are  instances  in  which  the  word  "opposite"  is  so  used 
and  I  am  inclined  to  think  that  the  word  used  for  "opposite"  is  used  to  denote  "expired"  (gata).  The  phrase  "  18  days  old"  is 
used  to  shew  the  18lh  day  of  the  solar  month.     [S.  B.  D.)
