Priya Sriman !
- Children were not named basing on Rasis but, they will be named according to
the star at the time of the birth of the child. This can be known from any calender.
Each star will have 4 Padas and there will be 9 Padas per Rasi. So when a child is born
the exact pada of the Nakshatra that is being passed then is taken along with the name
of the nakshatra. For each nakshatra, a few syllables are allotted. Usually the probable
syllable will be the starting syllable of the name of the child. Or that probable
syllable is included in the name of the person.
The future of the child depends upon the star and time and place, when and where
the child was born. For the betterment of life, those significant syllables were allotted.
You may send the star,time, place and gender of the child born and a suitable name
will be suggested.
- Rasis are not different for North, South or else. Rasis and the number of Rasis,
stars, tithis are fixed and are common everywhere except for few minor differences in
timings of local calenders. When a child is born, that nakshatra with corresponding
pada is taken and the Rasi corresponding to it is considered for speculation.
- Basing on the movement of planets, moon, sun earth, these timings are calculated.
Deep South Indians follow Sun and hence we get solar calenders, whereas Karnataka, Andhra
etc., the middle of India follow Moon, the Lunar calender. North side some follow Sun
and some follow moon and some follow Jupiter. All are right. There is nothing wrong.
Timings vary according to the local place calculations and position of that place
corresponding to the planet's position.
Whatever it be, it is better to follow the calender what our ancestors followed.
We mainly follow Lunar Calender.
- Even if you are doing Bhagavad, Bhagavatha kainkaryam, when we are confined to
so many constraints by this nature we need to follow good time or doing good things.
Movements of planets is all arranged by Lord for us. You have to follow the ordnance
of God in following time etc.
We should follow to the extent we can applying our thought and intelligence
according to our elders.
