Full panchang for Tue 11 Aug in IpameriJanmashtami Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Janmashtami on Tue 11 Aug in Ipameri?
By the Dharmasindhu, Janmashtami is on Tue 11 Aug: Ashtami touches nishitha on both nights and it takes the later.
Saptami until 00:37 Tue, inside nishitha; then Ashtami. Ashtami: 00:37 Tue to 02:46 Wed.
Ashtami holds all of nishitha, 23:52–00:42 Wed. Ashtami: 00:37 to 02:46 Wed.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−3). Band: the tithi. Box: Nishitha. Dark strip: night.
Krishna’s birth is celebrated at nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Ashtami runs from 00:37 on Tue 11 Aug to 02:46 on Wed 12 Aug, touching nishitha on both nights. When it does, the Dharmasindhu takes the later day: Tue 11 Aug. Every reading takes that day.
