Why is Bhai Dooj on Wed 13 Nov in Sevan?
Bhai Dooj is on Wed 13 Nov: Dwitiya touches aparahna that day, and no other.
Pratipada until 14:36, inside aparahna; then Dwitiya. Dwitiya: 14:36 to 11:02 Thu.
Dwitiya ended at 11:02; aparahna is Tritiya. Dwitiya: 14:36 Wed to 11:02.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+4). 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 14:36 on Wed 13 Nov to 11:02 on Thu 14 Nov, so it touches only Wednesday’s aparahna (13:44–15:44). 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.
