Calendars are created by civilisations to give meaning to the continuous flow of time according to their world-views. Over the past millennia, India has developed it's own unique collection of many calendars for regulating it's religious and cultural life. The current book presents a comprehensive account of their structure and relative importance at the present time and places them in the context of other calendars prevalent outside India. Suggestions have also been made for making some changes to bring them in line with our current astronomical knowledge.

Buying a house? Hosting an annaprasan or a grihapravesh ceremony? Or perhaps you need your child's horoscope for their wedding? The Panchang offers a codified daily guide to auspicious dates and timings throughout the year for important life events, religious festivals and ceremonies, and special occasions. A 'panchang' is the combined analysis of 'panch angs' or five attributes, namely, day of the week, tithi, nakshatra, yog and karan -- each of these elements and its impact is taken into careful consideration to arrive at an auspicious day. This first-ever English panchang, based on the famed 150-year-old Gupta Press Bengali panjika, also explains, in a simple, easy-to-understand manner, what a panchang is, what its different elements signify, and how you can use it. For all those who wish to know the astrological configurations for any special event, this is an indispensable tool.

Excerpt from The Indian Calendar: With Tables for the Conversion of Hindu and Muhammadan Into A. D. Dates, and Vice Versa 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 brie y noting his services in the cause of science, I cannot neglect this opportunity of expressing to him my gratitude for his kindness to myself.
