Full panchang for Sat 16 Aug in GresikJanmashtami Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Janmashtami on Sat 16 Aug in Gresik?
Janmashtami is on Sat 16 Aug: Ashtami touches nishitha on neither night, and the later day is taken.
Nishitha is Saptami; Ashtami begins at 01:20 Sat. Ashtami: 01:20 Sat to 23:05 Sat.
Ashtami ended at 23:05; nishitha is Navami. Ashtami: 01:20 to 23:05.
One row per day, on one clock (WIB). Band: the tithi. Box: Nishitha. Dark strip: night.
Krishna’s birth is celebrated at nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Ashtami runs from 01:20 on Sat 16 Aug to 23:05 on Sat 16 Aug, between the two nights’ nishitha, touching neither. The Dharmasindhu then takes the later day: Sat 16 Aug. 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.
