Why is Bhai Dooj on Thu 4 Nov in Pāthardi?
Bhai Dooj is on Thu 4 Nov: Dwitiya holds all of aparahna that day.
Dwitiya holds all of aparahna, 13:21–15:37. Dwitiya: 11:59 to 14:31 Fri.
Dwitiya holds aparahna only until 14:31; then Tritiya. Dwitiya: 11:59 Thu to 14:31.
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 began at 11:59 on Thu 4 Nov, before that day’s aparahna, and ended at 14:31 on Fri 5 Nov, partway into the next. The Nirnayasindhu takes the day Dwitiya fills: Thu 4 Nov. No text giving Bhai Dooj’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
