When is Holika Dahan 2088 in Sevan?
Holika Dahan muhurat: what time?
Holika Dahan muhurat: bhadra puchha, 23:01–00:10 Sun.
Why is Holika Dahan on Sat 6 Mar in Sevan?
Holika Dahan is on Sat 6 Mar, in bhadra’s tail (puchha), 23:01–00:10 Sun.
Holika Dahan muhurat: bhadra puchha, 23:01–00:10 Sun.
Purnima holds all of pradosha, 18:57–21:26. Purnima: 15:30 to 14:37 Sun.
Purnima ended at 14:37; pradosha is Pratipada.
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 15:30 on Sat 6 Mar to 14:37 on Sun 7 Mar, so only Saturday’s pradosha (18:57–21:26) falls within it. Bhadra lasts until 03:00 Sun, past nishitha, so the Dharmasindhu allows its tail, the puchha. Tithika places the puchha at 23:01–00:10 Sun, scaled from its ghatis: Tithika’s convention.
