Vinayak Chaturthi 2022: Find date, time, puja vidhi and rituals of the festival

-

Vinayak Chaturthi is one of the most auspicious and sacred festivals of the Hindu community. The special day is solely dedicated to Lord Ganesha, who is often addressed as Pratham Pujya, which means the deity worshipped first.

Chaturthi is usually observed twice a month. As per the Hindu calendar, Sankashti Chaturthi falls in Krishna Paksha and Vinayak Chaturthi falls in Shukla Paksha.

Devotees in large numbers observe fast and offer prayers to please Lord Ganesha. People observe fast to remove harmful or evil intent or effect from one’s life so that all can live in prosperity, peace and happiness.

Date and Time:

Vinayak Chaturthi will be observed in the month of Jyeshtha on the fourth day of Shukla Paksha. This year, it will be marked on 3 June, Friday.

Puja Shubh Muhurat:

On Vinayak Chaturthi, Ganesha puja is performed during Madhyana (in the afternoon). The puja muhurat is from 10:56 am to 1:43 pm. While, the Chaturthi Shukla Paksha will begin on 3 June at 12:17 am and end on 4 June at 2:41 am.

Mantras to recite:

- Om Ekdantaaye Viddhamahe

- Vakratundaya Dhimahi

- Tanno Danti Prachodayat

Rituals to follow:

  • Wake up early in the morning, take a bath and wear clean clothes.
  • As you get ready for puja, align your thoughts to observe the vrat sincerely.
  • Offer water to the rising sun and begin the fast.
  • During the whole day, you may consume fresh fruits, milk, and vrat recipes only after performing Madhyana puja.
  • While consuming food, strictly avoid eating onion, garlic, and meat.
  • Even intake of tobacco and alcohol is prohibited during this time.
  • Remember to read the Vrat Katha and conclude the puja by performing a special aarti.

Significance:

As Lord Ganesha symbolises wisdom, devotees take inspiration from him to broaden their abilities and succeed in life. That is why, he is rightfully hailed as Vighnaharta - a remover of obstacles.

Both COVID-19 vaccine doses needed for good protection against B16172 variant

-
It’s been a concerning few weeks in the UK, with the B16172 variant first taking hold and then spreading to become dominant. This more infectious form of the virus, initially identified in India, is what we’re now going to have to live with – unless it is out-competed by another variant in the future. Worryingly, experts had predicted that B16172 might be able to escape some of the effects of vaccines, which if true would threaten to derail the UK’s plans to finish lifting restrictions from the end of June. However, Public Health England (PHE) has looked at the ability of various variants to evade immunity and says that the UK’s vaccines remain effective against the variants circulating, including B16172. On the surface, this looks like good news. But delve a bit deeper, and things get more complicated, says Paul Hunter, professor of medicine at the University of East Anglia. PHE’s research found a little drop-off in protection against B16172 among people who were fully vaccinated.

New coronavirus variant emerge in India: How should our COVID response change?

-
Image
After genome sequencing of over 10,000 COVID-19 cases in India, researchers have discovered a new variant with two new mutations which may be better at evading the immune system. In 15-20 percent of samples from the Indian state of Maharashtra (the state accounting for 62 percent of cases in the country) a new, double mutation in key areas of the virus has been detected. These are now known as the E484Q and L452R mutations. What makes the variant different? Both these mutations are concerning because they are located in a key portion of the virus – the spike protein – that it uses to penetrate human cells. Spike proteins attach via a “receptor binding domain”, meaning the virus can attach to receptors in our cells. These new mutations include changes to the spike protein that make it a “better fit” for human cells. This means the virus can gain entry more easily and multiply faster. Given what we have seen with other similar mutations , it might also make it harder for our immu

Aditya L1 Mission: Spacecraft is nearing its final phase, says ISRO chief

-
Aditya L1 spacecraft is nearing its final phase, and manoeuvres to enter the L1 point are expected to be completed by January 7, 2024, according to ISRO Chairman S Somanath. “Aditya is on the way. I think it has reached almost its final phase,” the ISRO chief told PTI on the sidelines of an event organised at VSSC to commemorate the 60th year of the First Sounding Rocket Launch. Aditya L1, India’s first space-based mission to study the Sun, was successfully launched on September 2 from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre (SDSC) in Sriharikota. The spacecraft, after travelling about 1.5 million km from Earth over 125 days, is expected to be placed in a Halo orbit around the Lagrangian point L1, considered closest to the Sun. He said that the last preparations for the spacecraft’s entry into the L1 point are currently underway incrementally.”Possibly by January 7th, the final manoeuvres will be done for entering into the L1 point,” Somanath added. Among other tasks, it will capture and tr
