Bhadra or Bhadrapada or Bhaado (Hindi: भादों ''bhaado'', Sanskrit: भाद्रपद ''bhaadrapad'', (ネパール語:भाद्र) ''Bhadra'') is a month of the Hindu calendar that corresponds to August/September in the Gregorian calendar.〔Henderson, Helene. (Ed.) (2005) ''Holidays, festivals, and celebrations of the world dictionary'' Third edition. Electronic edition. Detroit: Omnigraphics, p. xxix. ISBN 0-7808-0982-3〕 In India's national civil calendar (Shaka calendar), Bhadra is the sixth month of the year, beginning on 23 August and ending on 22 September. Known as Purattaasi, it is the sixth month of the Tamil solar calendar. In solar religious calendars, Bhadra begins with the Sun's entry into Virgo, and is usually the sixth month of the year. In Nepal's Bikram Sambat, Bhadra is the fifth month. In lunar religious calendars, Bhadra begins on the new moon in August/September and is the sixth month of the year. The festival of Ganesha Chaturthi, celebrating the birthday of Ganesha, is observed from the 4-10 Bhadrapada in the bright fortnight and is the main holiday of the year in Maharashtra. Per Shaka calendar, the dark fortnight of Bhadrapada is reserved for the veneration of the dead. This period is known as Pitru Paksha. In the Vaishnava calendar, Hrishikesh governs this month. The Goddess Radha was born on the eighth day of this month. ==Festivals== *Haritalika Tritiya *Ganesh Chaturthi *Rishi Panchami * Shukla Chaturdashi: Anant Chaturdashi * Purnima: Madhu Purnima 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bhadra (month)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
