Why is Janmashtami on Sat 4 Sep in Pāthardi?
By the Dharmasindhu, Janmashtami is on Sat 4 Sep: Ashtami touches nishitha on both nights and it takes the later.
Ashtami holds all of nishitha, 00:05 Sat–00:51 Sat. Ashtami: 22:42 to 01:08 Sun.
Ashtami holds all of nishitha, 00:05 Sun–00:51 Sun. Ashtami: 22:42 Fri to 01:08 Sun.
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 22:42 on Fri 3 Sep to 01:08 on Sun 5 Sep, touching nishitha on both nights. When it does, the Dharmasindhu takes the later day: Sat 4 Sep. Every reading takes that day.
