Full panchang for Thu 2 Mar in IpameriMaha Shivratri Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Maha Shivratri on Thu 2 Mar in Ipameri?
Maha Shivratri is on Thu 2 Mar: Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Nishitha is Trayodashi; Chaturdashi begins at 05:21 Thu.
Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha, 00:01 Fri–00:48 Fri. Chaturdashi: 05:21 to 03:01 Fri.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−3). Band: the tithi. Box: Nishitha. Dark strip: night.
Shiva’s worship centres on nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Chaturdashi runs from 05:21 on Thu 2 Mar to 03:01 on Fri 3 Mar, so only Thursday night’s nishitha (00:01 Fri–00:48 Fri) falls within it.
