Are we celebrating our Birthday or Other's?

When I was in school it became a very culture to celebrate birthdays on the day of Gregorian calendar calendar we are born. People visted Temples on that day to offer prayers and to get blessings. Most of us believe that it is the day to celebrate our birthday. The fact is that we are celebrating a nonsense day. It is not at all our birthday. You may go the extent of betting on this and try to win the debate over me.

Consider the following

What is a day - A day and night means, the time taken for Earth to rotate around itself

How much time does Earth take to rotate around itself - 23 hours, 56 minutes

What is a year - The time earth takes to revolve around the Sun once

How much time does Earth take to revolve around the sun - 365. 26 days

Then why do they say 365 days - They round it to 365 days and for every four years they round an extra day as 366 days which is called a leap year...

What is a Birthday - It is not the number on Gregorian calendar(because numbers are manipulated, rounded, adjusted). It is the position of Earth with respect to the Sun and with respect to its own axis of rotation.

Is there any other Calendar to know what is my correct birthday? Yes, The Indian Panchang( or the Hindu Calendar , Indian National Calendar which originated from the Vedic ages) which exactly calculates the time and position of stars for each hour in a day for any year.

It is very logical that Earth does not take exactly 24 hours time to rotate nor does it take exactly 365 days to revolve around the Sun. These are man made adjustments. However we need to note that Earth passes through the same path of its travel each year. If we are born at 11:00 AM on 19 April 1976, Earth may be on a (x,y,z) position in a 3-D space. It passes through the same point the next year, not on 19th April 1976 11:00 AM, but some hours before or after. So it is logical to pray to the Gods on the exact position of Earth when we were born than on the numbers that are manipulated which God never created for us.

Follow the Indian calendar and celebrate your birthdays on the right day and not on the wrong day.... You can look examples of Krishnastami, Vinayak Chaturthi, Deepavali, Vijayadasami, Ugadi all these Indian festivals are celebrated on different days each year on a Julian calendar, because they follow the right position of planets, Sun and Stars and not the manipulated numbers.

Celebrate the Right Day... You will be blessed.
