Why is Janmashtami on Tue 7 Sep or Wed 8 Sep in Ipameri?
Smarta · Janmashtami is on Tue 7 Sep: Ashtami holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Ashtami holds all of nishitha, 23:45–00:34 Wed. Ashtami: 16:47 to 14:39 Wed.
Ashtami ended at 14:39; nishitha is Navami.
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 16:47 on Tue 7 Sep to 14:39 on Wed 8 Sep, so only Tuesday night’s nishitha (23:45–00:34 Wed) falls within it.
Vaishnavas keep Janmashtami on a tithi that Saptami does not pierce: Ashtami holds sunrise on Wed 8 Sep, at 06:13. Reading the Vaishnava rule by sunrise is Tithika’s convention.
