expression in His poetry.
Vedanta and Sastras. His 68th Vardhanti (birthday)

was celebrated on 23rd March 2018 at the sacred town
Sringeri. His Holiness was born on 11th April 1951
to Smt. Ananthalakshmamma and Sri Venkateshwara
Avadhani.
In 1966, a young lad (brahmachari) of 15 years

approached Sri Abhinava Vidyatirtha Mahaswamiji,
the then Jagadguru of Sringeri, seeking His blessings
and instruction in the Sastras. Sitarama Anjaneyaulu
(Sri Bharati Tirtha’s poorvashrama name) prostrated
before the Jagadguru and sought his tutelage, which
was granted immediately. The Jagadguru started the
sacred teaching the next day itself and Anjaneyalu
soon became a gem of a scholar and a dear disciple
of Jagadguru. The meeting happened at Ujjain where
Sri Abhinava Vidyathirtha Mahaswamiji was observing
Chaturmasya. The young boy accompanied Jagadguru
in all His tours. In eight years Anjaneyalu finished
the study of Krishna Yajur Veda, Purva and Uttara
Mimamsa, Nyaya Sastra and many other treatises and
commentaries.

Simple Method to Analyze

Economic Recession of USA
| Dr. nemanI VenkaTa raghunaTha rao
Economic recession results in high unemployment, bearish stock market and falling
real estate market. Knowing the setting of Economic recession will help plan and cover
for the same. Vedic Astrology has a way to analyse them.
A s per the USA National Bureau of Economic Research a recession is

defined as ”A significant decline in economic activity spread across
the economy, lasting more than a few months, normally visible in real GDP,
real income, employment, industrial production, and wholesale-retail sales”.
Americans have experienced these recession cycles in the past many years
in USA, but most importantly, the business and working class people are
effected by the Corporations spend and downsizing of workforce / resources
during the recession time. So, in this paper, I would like to share a method
to determine USA Recession Cycles using Annual Lunar Calendar Chart
cast by taking the Capital city of the USA, Washington, DC.
I have used the following pointers and illustrated the principles with USA Nemani Venkata Raghunatha

Panchanga for April 2018
First column gives the English dates and next to it the names of the regional months and dates. The ending moments of
Tithi, Nakshatra, Yoga and Karana are given in the 24 hour clock extending to 30 hours.
Of the Nityayogas, Vishkumbha, Parigha, Vyatipata, Vajra, Vyaghata, Vaidhruthi, Sula, Ganda and Atiganda are generally
spurned for auspicious events and they are marked in red in the Panchanga. Vydhruti pervades from 346°40’ to 360° and
Vyatipata from 213°20’ to 226°40’ of the sum of the Nirayana longitudes of the Sun and the Moon. Vydhruti and Vyatipata
punyakaala are observed on the day when the yogas prevail for 1½ hours or more, when Sraddha is performed by the astute.
These two belong to the shannavati -96- Sraddhas ordained for a householder. Considering the astronomical implications, the
Sayana Vydhruti and Vyatipata days are also indicated in the Panchanga. The auspicious Amritayoga and Siddhayoga and
inauspicious Maranayoga and Prabalarishtayoga come under Amirtaadiyoga scheme and are different from the Nityayogas.
The Karana is the half of the Tithi. They are mainly classified as Sthira - fixed or immovable and Chara or moveable.
The Chara Karanas are seven in number and the Sthira are only four. The fixed ones are inauspicious. They are Sakuni,
Chatushpada, Naga and Kimsatugna. The seven movable Karanas are in their order, Bava, Baalava, Kaulava, Taitila,
Gara, Vanija and Vishti (or Bhadra.) Among the movable Karanas Vishti or Bhadra is considered to be of dreadful. The
forbidden Karanas are marked in red for easy identification.
We have most of our religious observances pegged on to the Tithis. Pournamipooja Chandradarisana, Sankataharachaturthi
Vrata, Shastivrata, Ekadasi Vrata and Pradosha are specially mentioned in the Panchanga. Pournamipooja is done in the
evenings on days the full Moon is prevalent. Chandradarisana is observed on the evening on the day when the crescent
Moon appears for the first time in the west after the Amavasya. Chaturthi of the Krishnapaksha or Bahula Chaturthi of
every month is known as Sankataharachaturthi. The evenings of Sukla and Krishna Trayodasi days are specially observed
as Pradosha Vrata days.
