Why is Holika Dahan on Mon 12 Mar in Ipameri?
Holika Dahan is on Mon 12 Mar, in bhadra’s tail (puchha), 00:35 Tue–01:53 Tue.
Holika Dahan muhurat: bhadra puchha, 00:35 Tue–01:53 Tue.
Purnima holds all of pradosha, 18:30–20:51. Purnima: 16:05 to 18:14 Tue.
Purnima ended at 18:14; pradosha is Pratipada. Purnima: 16:05 Mon to 18:14.
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 16:05 on Mon 12 Mar to 18:14 on Tue 13 Mar, so only Monday’s pradosha (18:30–20:51) falls within it. Bhadra lasts until 05:12 Tue, past nishitha, so the Dharmasindhu allows its tail, the puchha. Tithika places the puchha at 00:35 Tue–01:53 Tue, scaled from its ghatis: Tithika’s convention.
