Why is Holika Dahan on Wed 4 Mar in Ipameri?
Holika Dahan is on Wed 4 Mar, in bhadra’s tail (puchha), 21:07–22:26.
Holika Dahan muhurat: bhadra puchha, 21:07–22:26.
Purnima holds all of pradosha, 18:36–20:55. Purnima: 12:27 to 15:05 Thu.
Purnima ended at 15:05; 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 12:27 on Wed 4 Mar to 15:05 on Thu 5 Mar, so only Wednesday’s pradosha (18:36–20:55) falls within it. Bhadra lasts until 01:46 Thu, past nishitha, so the Dharmasindhu allows its tail, the puchha. Tithika places the puchha at 21:07–22:26, scaled from its ghatis: Tithika’s convention.
