Why is Holika Dahan on Thu 10 Mar in Sevan?
Holika Dahan is on Thu 10 Mar: Purnima touches pradosha that evening, and no other.
Pradosha is Chaturdashi; Purnima begins at 22:30. Purnima: 22:30 to 20:35 Thu.
Purnima holds pradosha only until 20:35; then Pratipada. Purnima: 22:30 Wed to 20:35.
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 22:30 on Wed 9 Mar to 20:35 on Thu 10 Mar, so it touches only Thursday’s pradosha (19:00–21:28).
