Why is Bhai Dooj on Fri 9 Nov in Sevan?
Bhai Dooj is on Fri 9 Nov: Dwitiya touches aparahna that day, and no other.
Pratipada until 14:30, inside aparahna; then Dwitiya. Dwitiya: 14:30 to 10:46 Sat.
Dwitiya ended at 10:46; aparahna is Tritiya. Dwitiya: 14:30 Fri to 10:46.
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 14:30 on Fri 9 Nov to 10:46 on Sat 10 Nov, so it touches only Friday’s aparahna (12:42–14:45). 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.
