| The
Late Shree Pandit Dhundiraj Shaastree
Date |
| Born
on the sixth day of the waning phase
of moon in the Hindu month of Falguna,
on the Nath Shashthi day, in shaka 1842
(1920 AD) at Solapur, late Shree Pandit
Dhundirajshaastree had his lessons in
Krishna Yajurveda, khagoliya ganita

had acquired the traditional title
of Kavyateertha- an exponent of Sanskrit
language- learning under the guidance
of Shankarshaastree Moholkar and Bagewadikarshaastree
of Solapur.
The
lunar panchangas come across adhika
masa (an additional month) and kshaya
masa (the months which are eliminated
from the count). The kshayamaasa repeats
itself in a cycle of every 141 years
followed by another kshayamaasa after
19 years. Thus, generally speaking
not every generation of mankind witnesses
kshayamaasa. In his 75-year's life
late Dhundirajshaastree saw the kshaya
masa occurring twice. Dhundirajshaastree
was the first to decipher the shaastraartha
(religious decisions pertaining to
kshayamaasa) of the kshayamaasa which
later was followed by others in the
field. He won eminence and esteem
through various jyotish conferences
he attended and also was felicitated
with various awards and titles. The
Varanasi-based SaangaVeda Vidyalaya
honoured him with the Ganaka Ratna
title when he chaired the convocation
ceremony of the Vidyalaya. He was
acclaimed by the Shankaracharya of
Kanchi peetham. He was active in religious,
cultural, astrological, educational
and co-operative institutes and organisations.
He
gave thousands of lectures on Dharmashaastra
and Panchanga in cities and towns
of India.
