Full panchang for Mon 2 Sep in PāthardiJanmashtami Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Janmashtami on Mon 2 Sep in Pāthardi?
Janmashtami is on Mon 2 Sep: Ashtami holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Nishitha is Saptami; Ashtami begins at 01:06 Mon. Ashtami: 01:06 Mon to 03:11 Tue.
Ashtami holds all of nishitha, 00:05 Tue–00:51 Tue. Ashtami: 01:06 to 03:11 Tue.
One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Box: Nishitha. Dark strip: night.
Krishna’s birth is celebrated at nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Ashtami runs from 01:06 on Mon 2 Sep to 03:11 on Tue 3 Sep, so only Monday night’s nishitha (00:05 Tue–00:51 Tue) falls within it. 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.
