Why is Bhai Dooj on Thu 30 Oct in Sevan?
Bhai Dooj is on Thu 30 Oct: Dwitiya touches aparahna that day, and no other.
Pratipada until 14:21, inside aparahna; then Dwitiya. Dwitiya: 14:21 to 11:40 Fri.
Dwitiya ended at 11:40; aparahna is Tritiya. Dwitiya: 14:21 Thu to 11:40.
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 runs from 14:21 on Thu 30 Oct to 11:40 on Fri 31 Oct, so it touches only Thursday’s aparahna (12:44–14:51). 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.
- Vaishnava
- the Smarta day.
