The regular calendar for Bahai religious events has 19 months of 19 days, giving 361 days, plus 4 or 5 intercalary days which come all together, just before the month of Fasting, like carnival comes before Lent.

Why? Because the Bab was fascinated with the number 19 perhaps?

Because each religion has its own religious calendar so we had to have our own?

Because this way, we diplomatically slide out from having to agree with either the Jews or Christians or Muslims about whether the day of prayer if Friday, Saturday or Sunday?

or more simply:

Why not?

What panchang date was on 19 nov 1966?

https://itunes.apple.com/in/app/vedicpanchangam/id862232382?mt=8 No internet Connection is required for generating Panchang. Panchang can be generated on selected date(00-00-00 to 31-12-2072) for top 5000 Locations by population and also for your current Location. In Hindu calendar, the day starts with local sunrise and ends with next day local sunrise. As sunrise time is different for all cities, Hindu Calendar made for one city is not valid for any other city. Hence it is important to use location based Hindu Calendar, like this app. Further, each Hindu day consists of five elements, which are called angas. These five elements are 1. Tithi 2. Nakshatra 3. Yoga 4. Karana 5. Dinam (weekday of seven days week) Panchang In Hindu Calendar, all five elements together are called Panchang. (In Sanskrit: Panchang = pancha(five) + ang(part)). Hence Hindu Calendar which shows all five elements for each day is called Panchang. In South India Panchang is known as Panchangam

How many days are in 19 lunar calendar years with an extra month added in seven times?

In the lunar calendar system, a regular year consists of 12 lunar months, totaling approximately 354 days. When an extra month is added seven times over 19 years, this results in a total of 19 x 12 + 7 = 235 lunar months. Converting this to days gives us 235 x 29.53 (average length of a lunar month) = approximately 6946.55 days.


What is the difference between the Jewish calendar and the Gregorian calendar?

The Jewish calendar is based on both the moon and the sun. A month can have 29 or 30 days (to start each month with a new moon), and there can be 12 or 13 months to a year. In every 19 years, 12 of the 19 years have 12 months, while seven have 13 months, thus keeping in line with the solar calendar and making every 19 years on a Jewish calendar exactly equal to 19 years on the Gregorian calendar.

What is the Baha'i calander?

The calendar used by the Bahá'í Faith (a religion) is a solar calendar. Year counting starts on what, in the Gregorian Calendar, was March 21, 1844 - year 1 starts on this date. New Year is supposed to start at the equinox, but is currently made to coincide with March 21 in the Gregorian Calendar. (The equinox does not always fall on this exact date.)ANSWER 2:The Baha'i calendar consists of 19 months, 19 days in each, and they are named for 19 attributes of God (e.g., Glory, Perfection, Knowledge, etc.). Similar to the Jewish and Muslim lunar calendars, the Baha'i day is from sunset to sunset. The Baha'i calendar also includes four (five in leap year) "intercalary" days called Ayyam-i-Ha which fall immediately before the last Baha'i month - the month of fasting - which brings it into alignment with the Christian solar calendar. The Fast ends at sunset on March 21, the Baha'i New Year.
