Why is Bhai Dooj on Fri 31 Oct in Pāthardi?
Bhai Dooj is on Fri 31 Oct: Dwitiya touches aparahna that day, and no other.
Aparahna is Pratipada; Dwitiya begins at 16:53. Dwitiya: 16:53 to 14:12 Fri.
Dwitiya holds aparahna only until 14:12; then Tritiya. Dwitiya: 16:53 Thu to 14:12.
One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Box: Aparahna. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
The tilak is applied in aparahna, the fourth fifth of the day. Dwitiya runs from 16:53 on Thu 30 Oct to 14:12 on Fri 31 Oct, so it touches only Friday’s aparahna (13:21–15:39). No text giving Bhai Dooj’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
The rule
Kartika Shukla Dwitiya
The tilak is applied in aparahna, the fourth fifth of the day.
- Smarta
- the day whose aparahna Dwitiya holds: Tithika’s convention, since no text gives the time.
