Why is Bhai Dooj on Wed 14 Nov in Sevan?
Bhai Dooj is on Wed 14 Nov: Dwitiya holds all of aparahna that day, and no other.
Aparahna is Pratipada; Dwitiya begins at 15:12. Dwitiya: 15:12 to 17:55 Wed.
Dwitiya holds all of aparahna, 12:44–14:44. Dwitiya: 15:12 Tue to 17:55.
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 15:12 on Tue 13 Nov to 17:55 on Wed 14 Nov, so only Wednesday’s aparahna (12:44–14:44) falls within it. No text giving Bhai Dooj’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
