namo narayana!

Sri Nrisimha Priya Panjanga Sangaraham is determined only
for India. We must not simply follow it if we live elsewhere.
We do our pradha sandya vandhanam at sun rise at our place
of residence, not when sun rises in India. Similarly, we 
have to determine the thithi/star at the time of LOCAL sun 
rise and determine when to celebrate functions and when to
observe rituals.

For Munithraiyam, Sri Jayanthi must be observed on the
day when there is an intersection of Rohini and Ashtami
even for one vinAdi. For USA this occurs on Saturday.
Therefore, Munithraiya Sri Jayanti must be observed
only on Saturday here in the U.S.

The rules for determination of Sri Sanndihi Sri Jayanthi
is more complicated. However, when properly determined
for the U.S., Sri Sannidhi sishyas in the U.S. must also 
observe Sri Jayanthi on Saturday.

The rules for determination of Sri Jayanthi and other
vaideeka observances are explained in the Ahnika grantham
of Srimad Azhagiya Singar written in His poorvasramam.
