6:08 UT Dec 22 = 1138 IST Dec 22 <br /><br />Almost mid-day <br /><br />As regrds your other post : Uttarayan/Makar Sankranti happens on 14th Jan probably due to the fact that Sun transits through mid-India , 21degN ( say Konark/Kalinga/ujjain line ) . <br /><br />This is only a guess and not from any source.

What is it that you don't understand?<br /><br />"One who is not a Christian, Muslim, or Jew, especially an adherent of a polytheistic religion in antiquity."<br /><br />Then we look-up "polytheistic":<br /><br />"The worship of or belief in more than one god."<br /><br />Look - you're gonna need to put in a little effort here on your own.
