Haripada Punyakala – The Day of Vishnu’s Benevolence
Haripada Punya Kala is the day when Lord Vishnu performed miracles for the universe and is also the day when Vishnu’s infinite compassion flows freer than usual. Lord Vishnu is the maintainer of life and the entire cosmic creation and accessing Vishnu on this powerful day will bless you with Prosperity and Happiness.
 
Haripada Punya Kala is always marked by the Sun’s transit into a fixed sign.
The Sun enters the sign of Leo on August 17th – this transit is what makes it a ‘Double Vishnu’ time is that  Sun, the lord of the natural 5th house, enters Leo which is his own house means that this placement will bring about eternal joy and material prosperity.

Haripada Punya Kala occurs only 4 times per year when the Sun enters a ‘fixed’ sign. Interestingly, according to Vedic time cycle, each Haripada Punya Kala has a unique celestial configuration which repeats every 60 years.

Guru Poornima

30 Jun
                                                              Om Gurubyo Namaha

Guru Poornima (गुरु पूर्णिमा) is celebrated as Homage to the teacher or guru. This festival falls on the Full Moon day in the month of Ashada. Guru Poornima day is dedicated to teachers, parents, mentors or anyone who has guided us at different stages.
 
The Guru Poornima day is also known as “Vyasa Poornima”.Vyasa, (also called Krishna Dvaipayana or Vedavyasa) is traditionally credited with composing  the Mahabharata. According to legend, Vyasa was the son of the ascetic Parashara and the princess Satyavati and grew up in forests, living with hermits who taught him the Vedas. Thereafter he lived in the forests near the banks of the river Sarasvati, becoming a teacher and a priest, fathering a son and disciple, Shuka, and gathering a large group of disciples. Late in life, living in caves in the Himalayas, he is said to have divided the Vedas into the four traditional collections, composed Puranas, and, in a period of two and a half years, composed his great epic, the Mahabharata,  dictating it to his scribe, Ganesha, the elephant god.
 
Hindus celebrate it in the honour of the great sage Vyasa, who is seen one of the greatest gurus in ancient Hindu traditions, and a symbol of Guru-Shishya Parampara, the Guru – disciple tradition. The festival is common to all spiritual traditions in Hinduism, where it is dedicated to the expression of gratitude towards the teacher by his/her disciple.
 
Also traditionally the festival is celebrated by Buddhists in honour of lord Buddha who gave His first sermon on this day at Sarnath, Uttar Pradesh, India.
 
This year Guru Poornima is celebrated on Saturday, 12th July 2014.
