One row per day, on one clock (UTC+2). Band: the tithi. Line: Sunrise. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
Buddha Purnima follows the tithi at sunrise. Purnima runs from 17:43 on Thu 30 Apr to 19:23 on Fri 1 May, so it holds sunrise only on Fri 1 May, at 06:28. No text giving Buddha Purnima’s time was found; sunrise is Tithika’s convention.
