Holika Dahan muhurat: the time after bhadra, at 22:40.
Why is Holika Dahan on Mon 3 Mar in Pāthardi?
Holika Dahan is on Mon 3 Mar, after bhadra ends at 22:40.
Holika Dahan muhurat: the time after bhadra, at 22:40.
Purnima holds all of pradosha, 18:35–21:01. Purnima: 10:27 to 10:47 Tue.
Purnima ended at 10:47; pradosha is Pratipada.
One row per day, on one clock (IST). 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 10:27 on Mon 3 Mar to 10:47 on Tue 4 Mar, so only Monday’s pradosha (18:35–21:01) falls within it. Bhadra lasts until 22:40, and the Dharmasindhu keeps the rite out of bhadra: it is done from 22:40.
