Why is Bhai Dooj on Wed 14 Nov in Ipameri?
Bhai Dooj is on Wed 14 Nov: Dwitiya touches aparahna that day, and no other.
Pratipada until 16:26, inside aparahna; then Dwitiya. Dwitiya: 16:26 to 12:48 Thu.
Dwitiya ended at 12:48; aparahna is Tritiya. Dwitiya: 16:26 Wed to 12:48.
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 16:26 on Wed 14 Nov to 12:48 on Thu 15 Nov, so it touches only Wednesday’s aparahna (14:15–16:50). 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.
