When is Holika Dahan 1913 in Sevan?
Holika Dahan muhurat: what time?
Holika Dahan muhurat: bhadra puchha, 01:04 Sat–02:06 Sat.
Why is Holika Dahan on Fri 21 Mar in Sevan?
Holika Dahan is on Fri 21 Mar, in bhadra’s tail (puchha), 01:04 Sat–02:06 Sat.
Holika Dahan muhurat: bhadra puchha, 01:04 Sat–02:06 Sat.
Chaturdashi until 18:25, inside pradosha; then Purnima. Purnima: 18:25 to 14:53 Sat.
Purnima ended at 14:53; 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 18:25 on Fri 21 Mar to 14:53 on Sat 22 Mar, so it touches only Friday’s pradosha (18:10–20:32). Bhadra lasts until 04:38 Sat, past nishitha, so the Dharmasindhu allows its tail, the puchha. Tithika places the puchha at 01:04 Sat–02:06 Sat, scaled from its ghatis: Tithika’s convention.
