When is Holika Dahan 2002 in Ipameri?
Holika Dahan muhurat: what time?
Holika Dahan muhurat: bhadra puchha, 01:51 Thu–02:52 Thu.
Why is Holika Dahan on Wed 27 Mar in Ipameri?
Holika Dahan is on Wed 27 Mar, in bhadra’s tail (puchha), 01:51 Thu–02:52 Thu.
Holika Dahan muhurat: bhadra puchha, 01:51 Thu–02:52 Thu.
Chaturdashi until 19:20, inside pradosha; then Purnima. Purnima: 19:20 to 15:24 Thu.
Purnima ended at 15:24; 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 19:20 on Wed 27 Mar to 15:24 on Thu 28 Mar, so it touches only Wednesday’s pradosha (18:18–20:42). Bhadra lasts until 05:22 Thu, past nishitha, so the Dharmasindhu allows its tail, the puchha. Tithika places the puchha at 01:51 Thu–02:52 Thu, scaled from its ghatis: Tithika’s convention.
