Understanding the hindu calendar helps to understand the traditions practiced by hindus for millennia. This video clearly walks you through the calculations of a lunar day and the names of the Tithis andPakshas . Astronomy was a well developed science in ancient India and understanding these systems, brings a new perspective to our understanding of the science of Jyotisha.
This is a knowledge which was available and known to everyone a few generations back, and lost now due to modern schooling. Knowing these basics will help you to figure out the Panchangam or the Hindu Calendar and bring it into everyday use.
Both the sidereal and tropical time systems as well as the solar day(vasara), were introduced in the earlier video and the Lunar day (Tithi) is explained here, as they form the basis of understanding Jyotisha. I have made an attemot to make the explanations simple and easy to understand even for a novice in the field.
I have researched as much as I can to learn and understand this science, and I also attended a course about Vedas and ancient literature to get some basic knowledge which was from guru parampara source. This endeavour is to start you on a journey, the path is yours to continue.
All my sources are listed below for the research upto now. With each video that list is sure to grow. The details missing in this video due to time constraints are available on the blog page.
