Full panchang for Sun 16 Aug in SevanJanmashtami Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Janmashtami on Sun 16 Aug in Sevan?
By the Dharmasindhu, Janmashtami is on Sun 16 Aug: Ashtami touches nishitha on both nights and it takes the later.
Ashtami holds all of nishitha, 01:44 Sun–02:25 Sun. Ashtami: 01:05 Sun to 01:54 Mon.
Ashtami holds nishitha only until 01:54 Mon; then Navami. Ashtami: 01:05 to 01:54 Mon.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+5). Band: the tithi. Box: Nishitha. Dark strip: night.
Ashtami touches nishitha on both nights. When it does, the Dharmasindhu takes the later day: Sun 16 Aug, where it holds nishitha until 01:54 Mon. Every reading takes that day.
The rule
Bhadrapada Krishna Ashtami (purnimanta) · Shravana Krishna Ashtami (amanta)
Krishna’s birth is celebrated at nishitha, the midnight muhurta.
- Smarta
- the night whose nishitha Ashtami holds; when it touches both or neither, the later (Dharmasindhu).
- Vaishnava
- a Ashtami that Saptami does not pierce, read at sunrise: Tithika’s convention.
