Why is Bhai Dooj on Sat 1 Nov in Myjava?
Bhai Dooj is on Sat 1 Nov: Dwitiya holds all of aparahna that day.
Dwitiya holds all of aparahna, 12:32–14:30. Dwitiya: 12:21 to 13:15 Sun.
Dwitiya holds aparahna only until 13:15; then Tritiya. Dwitiya: 12:21 Sat to 13:15.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+1). 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 12:21 on Sat 1 Nov, before that day’s aparahna, and ended at 13:15 on Sun 2 Nov, partway into the next. The Nirnayasindhu takes the day Dwitiya fills: Sat 1 Nov. No text giving Bhai Dooj’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
