Why is Bhai Dooj on Fri 28 Oct in Myjava?
Bhai Dooj is on Fri 28 Oct: Dwitiya touches aparahna that day, and no other.
Aparahna is Pratipada; Dwitiya begins at 18:11.
Dwitiya holds aparahna only until 14:43; then Tritiya. Dwitiya: 18:11 Thu to 14:43.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+2). 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 18:11 on Thu 27 Oct to 14:43 on Fri 28 Oct, so it touches only Friday’s aparahna (13:33–15:35). 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.
