Why is Bhai Dooj on Sat 1 Nov in Davinópolis?
Bhai Dooj is on Sat 1 Nov: Dwitiya holds all of aparahna that day, and no other.
Dwitiya holds all of aparahna, 13:07–15:34. Dwitiya: 08:21 to 09:15 Sun.
Dwitiya ended at 09:15; aparahna is Tritiya.
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 08:21 on Sat 1 Nov to 09:15 on Sun 2 Nov, so only Saturday’s aparahna (13:07–15:34) falls within it. No text giving Bhai Dooj’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
