Full panchang for Sun 3 Mar in PāthardiMaha Shivratri Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Maha Shivratri on Sun 3 Mar in Pāthardi?
Maha Shivratri is on Sun 3 Mar: Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha, 00:16 Mon–01:05 Mon. Chaturdashi: 15:33 to 11:54 Mon.
Chaturdashi ended at 11:54; nishitha is Amavasya.
One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Box: Nishitha. Dark strip: night.
Shiva’s worship centres on nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Chaturdashi runs from 15:33 on Sun 3 Mar to 11:54 on Mon 4 Mar, so only Sunday night’s nishitha (00:16 Mon–01:05 Mon) falls within it.
