Editorial Standards & Content Policy
Last Updated: August 2026
At One Sanatan, we are deeply committed to preserving and sharing the authentic, timeless wisdom of Sanatan Dharma. Every piece of content published on our platform — including daily Panchang calculations, stotrams, mantras, Vedic baby names, and spiritual stories — is researched, verified, and cross-referenced against primary classical sources to ensure absolute accuracy and spiritual integrity.
1. Our Editorial & Research Team
Our content is developed and reviewed by a multidisciplinary team of practitioners and researchers:
- Sanskrit Scholars: Specialists trained in Sanskrit grammar (Vyakaran) and classical meters (Chhandas) who verify the accuracy of Devanagari texts, mantras, and Roman transliterations (IAST).
- Jyotish Practitioners: Astrologers who validate our Drik Ganit astronomical calculations, planetary ephemeris data, Tithis, Nakshatras, and auspicious Muhurtas.
- Scriptural Researchers: Researchers dedicated to sourcing narratives, symbolism, and philosophical concepts directly from primary Vedic texts.
- Naming Specialists: Curators with deep knowledge of Sanskrit etymology, Nakshatra Pada naming syllables, and traditional Vedic naming conventions.
2. Primary Source References
We rely exclusively on authoritative, classical Sanskrit treatises and authenticated regional traditions:
- Panchang & Astronomy: Surya Siddhanta, Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra, and standard Drik Ganit astronomical ephemeris models.
- Devotional Library: Shrimad Bhagavatam, Vishnu Purana, Skanda Purana, Shiva Purana, Devi Mahatmyam, Valmiki Ramayana, and Ramacharitamanas.
- Linguistics & Names: Monier-Williams Sanskrit-English Dictionary, Shabdakalpadruma, Amarakosha, and traditional Nakshatra-Akshara systems.
3. Panchang Calculation Methodology
Our Panchang is calculated using the Drik Ganit (observational astronomy) system. Planetary coordinates, solar and lunar longitudes, sunrise/sunset times, Rahu Kaal, and Choghadiya periods are computed dynamically based on precise geographical coordinates (latitude and longitude) and official timezone offsets. This ensures that devotees receive location-accurate timings for their daily rituals and fasts.
4. Fact-Checking and Corrections Policy
We hold ourselves to the highest standards of accuracy. If an error or discrepancy is identified in any scripture text, pronunciation guide, name meaning, or astronomical calculation, we investigate and resolve it promptly.
If you notice an inaccuracy or have a suggestion, please reach out to us via our Contact Us page. Our editorial team reviews all inquiries within 24 to 48 hours.
5. Content Independence & Integrity
Our devotional and educational content is produced independently. While we display advertising via Google AdSense to support the free hosting and calculation infrastructure of the platform, advertisers have no influence over our scriptural interpretations, Panchang calculations, or editorial judgment.
