The star RohiNi stars at 4-18 P.M on 28th which also happens to be the Ashtami day.

It will be best to celebrate it on 28th night (at midnight if possible) :)

Pardon me for the intrusion, since when did Brahmins start wishing each other in such unmistakably Western ways?

Ever since everyone started writing in English!LOL

BTW I wonder why everyone here calls themselves by the western word "Brahmin"??

As far as I know the word is Brahmana.

So it should be Tamil Brahmana.

Man is a social animal...We can use occasions such as these (Festivals) to increase social bonding

Did not Bal Ganghadar Tilak use the Ganapathy Festival in Pune as a platform to kindle patriotic fervour amongst the people against the Colonial rule?

Dear Sangom

Your post # 11

The OP was a simple, plain question which was answered clearly by Tmt VR in post # 2.

I don't see any reason for this unnecessary rambling - if you've been asked to 'edit' or 'withdraw' some earlier
posts / parts of it, I guess there must've been very good reason for the same.

Yay Yem

No problem vgane, I really don't mean to intrude in your celebrations. It is just my observation, for what it is worth, this wishing "Happy Janmashatami" was not there in earlier times, this seems to be a recent invention.

regards ...

The formal wishing may be recent...Otherwise the usual dialogue is "Seesanthi achha" and sharing of Vella seedai, Uppu seedai, Murukku and Thirathu pal with relatives and friends
