Why is Bhai Dooj on Sat 1 Nov in Sevan?
Bhai Dooj is on Sat 1 Nov: Dwitiya holds all of aparahna that day.
Dwitiya holds all of aparahna, 12:44–14:50. Dwitiya: 12:41 to 14:36 Sun.
Dwitiya holds aparahna only until 14:36; then Tritiya. Dwitiya: 12:41 Sat to 14:36.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+3). Band: the tithi. Box: Aparahna. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
The tilak is applied in aparahna, the fourth fifth of the day. Dwitiya began at 12:41 on Sat 1 Nov, before that day’s aparahna, and ended at 14:36 on Sun 2 Nov, partway into the next. The Nirnayasindhu takes the day Dwitiya fills: Sat 1 Nov. No text giving Bhai Dooj’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
