Why is Holika Dahan on Sun 25 Mar in Sevan?
Holika Dahan is on Sun 25 Mar, in bhadra’s tail (puchha), 01:05 Mon–02:12 Mon.
Holika Dahan muhurat: bhadra puchha, 01:05 Mon–02:12 Mon.
Purnima holds all of pradosha, 18:17–20:36. Purnima: 17:48 to 16:11 Mon.
Purnima ended at 16:11; pradosha is Pratipada. Purnima: 17:48 Sun to 16:11.
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 17:48 on Sun 25 Mar to 16:11 on Mon 26 Mar, so only Sunday’s pradosha (18:17–20:36) falls within it. Bhadra lasts until 04:56 Mon, past nishitha, so the Dharmasindhu allows its tail, the puchha. Tithika places the puchha at 01:05 Mon–02:12 Mon, scaled from its ghatis: Tithika’s convention.
