Why is Holika Dahan on Thu 24 Mar in Ipameri?
Holika Dahan is on Thu 24 Mar, in bhadra’s tail (puchha), 01:21 Fri–02:35 Fri.
Holika Dahan muhurat: bhadra puchha, 01:21 Fri–02:35 Fri.
Purnima holds all of pradosha, 18:20–20:43. Purnima: 17:21 to 17:58 Fri.
Purnima ended at 17:58; pradosha is Pratipada. Purnima: 17:21 Thu to 17:58.
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 17:21 on Thu 24 Mar to 17:58 on Fri 25 Mar, so only Thursday’s pradosha (18:20–20:43) falls within it. Bhadra lasts until 05:43 Fri, past nishitha, so the Dharmasindhu allows its tail, the puchha. Tithika places the puchha at 01:21 Fri–02:35 Fri, scaled from its ghatis: Tithika’s convention.
