Why is Bhai Dooj on Fri 16 Nov in Codcod?
Bhai Dooj is on Fri 16 Nov: Dwitiya touches aparahna that day, and no other.
Pratipada until 13:11, inside aparahna; then Dwitiya. Dwitiya: 13:11 to 12:19 Sat.
Dwitiya ended at 12:19; aparahna is Tritiya. Dwitiya: 13:11 Fri to 12:19.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+8). 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 13:11 on Fri 16 Nov to 12:19 on Sat 17 Nov, so it touches only Friday’s aparahna (12:41–15:01). 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.
