About
Born at Sriperumbudur in 1017 CE as Lakshmana, Ramanuja was sent to Kanchipuram to study under Yadavaprakasha, a teacher in Shankara's Advaita lineage. He broke with his guru over the idea of an impersonal Absolute and later served as priest at the Varadaraja Perumal temple at Kanchi. He then succeeded Yamunacharya at Srirangam, which became the seat of Sri Vaishnavism. His three core works — the Sri Bhashya on the Brahma Sutras, the Gita Bhashya, and the Vedartha Sangraha on the Upanishads — argued that release (moksha) is not merger into a featureless Brahman but the soul's joy in serving a personal God, Vishnu with Lakshmi. After him his followers split into the Vadakalai (Sanskrit-leaning, northern) and Tenkalai (Tamil, southern) schools over how God's grace reaches the devotee.

Festival Date, Tithi & Muhurat

Hindu festivals are tied to a specific Tithi, not a fixed date — so the day shifts every year and even varies slightly across cities.

Open the Panchanga for the festival day to see the exact Tithi, Nakshatra, Yoga, Karana and Shubh Muhurat for pooja in your location.

The Dharmayana app keeps track of all upcoming festivals on the Hindu calendar and reminds you in advance.

Personalised Astrology Around Festivals

Festivals are also a good time to look at your kundali — many families plan sankalp, donations or new beginnings around them.

Inside the app you can:

  • Generate your personal Vedic kundali
  • Talk to a Jyotisha for guidance around career, relationships or health
  • Run kundali matching before fixing a marriage during the festival season

All of this is available inside the Dharmayana app — no fixed schedule, use it whenever you need it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Hindu festivals — like Diwali, Navratri, Mahashivaratri, Holi and Janmashtami — mark sacred moments tied to deities, seasons and lunar/solar cycles. Each festival has its own story, vrat, prarthana and rituals, and is timed using the Panchanga so the date moves slightly every year against the Gregorian calendar.
