Why is Holika Dahan on Mon 2 Mar in Sevan?
Holika Dahan is on Mon 2 Mar, in bhadra’s tail (puchha), 23:58–01:08 Tue.
Holika Dahan muhurat: bhadra puchha, 23:58–01:08 Tue.
Purnima holds all of pradosha, 18:52–21:24. Purnima: 16:26 to 15:37 Tue.
Purnima ended at 15:37; pradosha is Pratipada. Purnima: 16:26 Mon to 15:37.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+4). 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 16:26 on Mon 2 Mar to 15:37 on Tue 3 Mar, so only Monday’s pradosha (18:52–21:24) falls within it. Bhadra lasts until 03:58 Tue, past nishitha, so the Dharmasindhu allows its tail, the puchha. Tithika places the puchha at 23:58–01:08 Tue, scaled from its ghatis: Tithika’s convention.
