Four Stambhs

Four Stambhs for Samvat 2073

There are four stambhs in every Samvat.  The entire world depends on these elements, viz. Water, Air, Grains and Herbal plants (Water, Air, Fire, Earth). These Stambhs indicate whether there will be good or bad results in the year. If the Stambhs are strong then the results will be good and if the Stambhs are weak then results will be bad. The good and bad effect of the Stambhs influence the country and the people.

Method of Anna Stambha Calculation


The Punarvasu Nakshatra on Ashadh Shukla Paksh Pratipada forms the Anna Stambh.From ephemeris we find that Ashadh Shukla Paksh Pratipada begins on 4 July 2016 at 16:31hrs till 5 July 2016 at 14:35hrs. Therefore, the total duration of Pratipada is 22 hours 04 minutes = 1324 minutes.
Punarvasu Nakshatra begins at 18:34 hrs on 4th July 2016 and Pratipada ends at 14:35 hrs on 5th July 2016
Therefore Punarvasu Nakshatra was in Pratipada for 20 hours & 01 minute =1201 minutes. This is 90.7% of Pratipada with duration 1324 minutes.
Therefore Anna Stambha is 90.7% which is very strong. The grains, wheat and pulses production will be high during this year.
Similarly percentages of other Stambhas can be determined.
