The Vamaneshvara Dhama, Buxar

The Bhagavata Purana declares: On the day of Shravana-dvadashi [the twelfth day of the bright fortnight in the month of Bhadrapada], when the moon came into the lunar mansion Shravaṇa (Aquila) at the auspicious moment of Abhijit muhurta (around mid-day), the Lord appeared in this universe. Considering the Lord’s appearance very auspicious, all the stars and planets, etc. were munificently charitable.
