Why is Bhai Dooj on Tue 21 Oct in Pāthardi?
Bhai Dooj is on Tue 21 Oct: Dwitiya touches aparahna on neither day, and the earlier day is taken.
Aparahna is Pratipada; Dwitiya begins at 17:13. Dwitiya: 17:13 to 13:34 Wed.
Dwitiya ended at 13:34; aparahna is Tritiya. Dwitiya: 17:13 Tue to 13:34.
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 17:13 on Tue 21 Oct to 13:34 on Wed 22 Oct, between the two days’ aparahna, touching neither. The Nirnayasindhu then takes the earlier day: Tue 21 Oct. No text giving Bhai Dooj’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
