The Calendar of Holy Days page has been updated for the next year. This calendar lists holy days according to the lunar calendar. In addition to the regular list of days, you can also see the calendar in a monthly format, and subscribe it as an RSS feed or as a WebCal (.ics file).

Site Updates: South Africa and Pune

First of all, my apologies for not updating this site in the last few months. I've been on extended travel to Canada and South Africa.

The website for the South African Centre in Durban has been added to the list of Worldwide Centres. Although it is not official yet, the centre is due to become an officially affiliated centre of the Ramakrishna Order this year.

Also, the webmaster of the Pune Centre in India has informed me that the website of that centre has changed to www.rkmpune.org.

Finally, I've implemented HaloScan commenting on this site, so feel free to leave any comments that you may have.

New calendar site

The calendar part of this website that lists the holy days in the year has been moved from the Apple .Mac site to a locally hosted version. You can have a look at the new site here: http://calendar.ariseawake.com. Enjoy!

Minor layout changes

I've been making some minor layout changes to the site based on feedback I've been getting. Hopefully the changes will make navigation easier and more intuitive. Feedback is welcome.

Site migration complete

All of the pages and data from the old site are now available on the new site. So there should be no need to visit the old format any longer.

Welcome to the new site

I've been working on the migration of content from the old site to the new layout. If you're looking for something that hasn't been moved over yet, the old site can still be found here.

As part of the move to a new site layout, I've added the Holy Days for 2006-2007 to the Calendar page. Also, a few more links have been added to the Worldwide Vedanta Centres page, and the page is now organized by continent. This should make it easier to find links to the different Centres.

Hope that you like the new site layout. If you have any thoughts about the site, be sure to send me your comments via the new Contact page.

Starting on a new site design

The current site design has proved to be difficult to maintain, so I'm changing the site to a new design that should be much easier to update.
