Samvatsaram - Sambat - Samvat : This year samvat is 2072 Saake is 1937.
The era of Raaja Vikramadutt (King) is called Vikram Samvat. There are
different yugas named as Yudhister Yug (era) , Vikramadatya era, Shaliwaahan.

The Hindu Jyotish Shastra (Astrololgy) is practiced for over many years.
The Hindu Jyotish Shastra has two divisions Ganit (Calculation) and Falit
(Predictive - Prediction). The former has three sub-divisions namely
Siddhantha - systems, Tantra and thirdly Karma. This Panchang (Almanac) Tipno consists of five
different parts that is why it is called PANCHANG; whereas TIPNO has three parts. Following are five
parts of panchang :-

1) Vaar (1st Part of Panchang / Tipno) : Day first of the Samvatsar New Year.
Formation is based on Hindu astrological siddhantha. Vaar (days) are added in this panchang.
2) Tithi (2nd Part of Panchang / Tipno) : Tithi is the digit of the moon. While saying the Sankalp, the
Hindu Prayers everyday tithi is recited. Tithis are provided herewith in this panchang including
time in hours and minutes. Generally there are 15 tithis in a Paksha (fortnight). But, sometimes
tithis are big (Vridhi) and small (Khaye) depending on the waxing and waning of the moon. The
fortnight (Paksha) can be brighter (Shukla Paksha Sud Sahaai) and darker fortnight (Krishna
Paksha Vad Vadi). Tithis are from Ekam to Pornima Poonam (Full Moon), whereas second
Paksha starts from the first tithi to fifteenth tithi until Amaavasyaa (Umas) ].
3) Nakshatra (3rd Part of Panchang / Tipno) : There are 27 nakshatras and also the Abhijit. Hindu
Vedic Astrology has significant importance of the nakshatras (constellation asterism). While
initiating the name of the new born child, nakshatra is the integral part. Hindu prayer sankalp
time, nakshatra is recited.
4) Yog (4th Part of Panchang) : Therere 27 yog. See the Hindu Astrology in brief of this panchang;
it also can be seen in the hindi section of this panchang.
5) Karan (5th Part of Panchang) : This topic is detailed in this Jhulelal Panchang. Refer the topic of
Hindu Astrology in brief as well as see in the hindi section of this panchang.
Panchang Tipno also focuses on different aspects of astrology, characteristics of 12
different moon signs, casting of zodiac signs, mangal grahe (Mars effect for the considering
matrimony). One of the topic on mercury planet (budh) is covered in this panchang by my elder
brother Pujya late Shripal Parsram Sharma of Ulhasnagar; it was also printed in panchang about
during 2002-2003. My father Pujya late Shri Parsram Rochiram Sharma; and my elder brother
Pt. Maharaj Ramesh Parsram Sharma in Lucknow, Bharat (India) also printed Parva Patrika.

Due thanks to Pujya late Shri B.M.Bharadwaj and our elders Pujya late Smt. Satidevi

Hindu Jyotish Vedic Astrology is an ancient science which has to be respected by the
Hindu family. Tradition and culture are the backbones to our civilization; and astrology is one such
tradition. Astrology is predictive. We have tried here to compile briefly the different Hindu
