When is Holika Dahan 2027 in Chahārbāgh?
Holika Dahan muhurat: what time?
Holika Dahan muhurat: bhadra puchha, 23:28–00:33 Mon.
Why is Holika Dahan on Sun 21 Mar in Chahārbāgh?
Holika Dahan is on Sun 21 Mar, in bhadra’s tail (puchha), 23:28–00:33 Mon.
Holika Dahan muhurat: bhadra puchha, 23:28–00:33 Mon.
Purnima holds all of pradosha, 18:18–20:40. Purnima: 16:22 to 14:13 Mon.
Purnima ended at 14:13; pradosha is Pratipada.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+3:30). 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 16:22 on Sun 21 Mar to 14:13 on Mon 22 Mar, so only Sunday’s pradosha (18:18–20:40) falls within it. Bhadra lasts until 03:15 Mon, past nishitha, so the Dharmasindhu allows its tail, the puchha. Tithika places the puchha at 23:28–00:33 Mon, scaled from its ghatis: Tithika’s convention.
