Why is Bhai Dooj on Wed 18 Oct in Pāthardi?
Bhai Dooj is on Wed 18 Oct: Dwitiya holds all of aparahna that day.
Dwitiya holds all of aparahna, 14:24–16:44. Dwitiya: 14:00 to 15:38 Thu.
Dwitiya holds aparahna only until 15:38; then Tritiya. Dwitiya: 14:00 Wed to 15:38.
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 14:00 on Wed 18 Oct, before that day’s aparahna, and ended at 15:38 on Thu 19 Oct, partway into the next. The Nirnayasindhu takes the day Dwitiya fills: Wed 18 Oct. No text giving Bhai Dooj’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
