Why is Holika Dahan on Thu 12 Mar in Sevan?
Holika Dahan is on Thu 12 Mar, in bhadra’s tail (puchha), 00:31 Fri–01:36 Fri.
Holika Dahan muhurat: bhadra puchha, 00:31 Fri–01:36 Fri.
Purnima holds all of pradosha, 18:00–20:27. Purnima: 17:28 to 15:10 Fri.
Purnima ended at 15:10; pradosha is Pratipada.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+3). Band: the tithi. Box: Pradosha. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
Holika is burnt in pradosha, the 3 muhurtas after sunset, outside bhadra. Purnima runs from 17:28 on Thu 12 Mar to 15:10 on Fri 13 Mar, so only Thursday’s pradosha (18:00–20:27) falls within it. Bhadra lasts until 04:16 Fri, past nishitha, so the Dharmasindhu allows its tail, the puchha. Tithika places the puchha at 00:31 Fri–01:36 Fri, scaled from its ghatis: Tithika’s convention.
