Holika Dahan muhurat: what time?
Why is Holika Dahan on Mon 22 Mar in Baoding?
By the Dharmasindhu, Holika Dahan is on Mon 22 Mar: Purnima touches pradosha on both evenings and it takes the later.
Chaturdashi until 20:52, inside pradosha; then Purnima. Purnima: 20:52 to 18:43 Mon.
Purnima holds pradosha only until 18:43; then Pratipada. Purnima: 20:52 Sun to 18:43.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+8). Band: the tithi. Box: Pradosha. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
Purnima touches pradosha on both evenings. When it does, the Dharmasindhu takes the later day: Mon 22 Mar, where it holds pradosha until 18:43.
