AGE CALCULATION Indian and Western solar and Lunar system
Elders of today, would have heard your mother or Grandma stating
always your age as only THE RUNNING AGE, UNLIKE THE CONCEPT OF WEST AS
COMPLETED ONE. If yagnopaveetham were to be done at seven years according
to the SAY, then it is in that RUNNING AGE 6 to 7 running and not at 7 to 8
running. HENCE IN ALL CASE OF BABY COMING OUT OF THE WOMB IS WRITTEN IN
SANSKRIT ONLY AS “JAYATHE” AND NOT “JANANYATHE”. Jananam is birth; jayathe
is produced. Babies are produced as per our calendar on delivery whereas
the Sanskrit calendar states that Janya is an approximate date unknown to
us or even the mother to be precise, but consciousness is attained as an
egg and the age is started as day one, thus ending near 10 months (9 months
plus garbhopanishad). On a star at a time and at a place, the child comes
out of the Machine as PRODUCED, where the age of child is 10 months old
(nearabout) and there after we celebrated 1 year and 10 months as Ayush and
80 years and 10 months as sathabhishekam; hence the growing baby for 7
months is in yoga state as Brahmam lied in Rig Veda 10.129, before the
creation and as Brahmam woken up, so too the baby in the 7th month though
conscious , gets the Atma. Atma enters through the mother’s head hence
Pumsa vana seemantham is performed. Hence only age is the current year in
Hinduism whereas the British mentioned it as after the completion where
virtually the body is elder biologically than the age. So sathabhishekam of
80 years to be done ,in my opinion, only around the English date of birth
and not after the 10 months period as the foetus or the kid or the adult or
the old do not see all the 1000 pirais , but survived those pirais; rather
a child has a vision only through the mother.
