Full panchang for Sun 23 Feb in IpameriMaha Shivratri Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Maha Shivratri on Sun 23 Feb in Ipameri?
Maha Shivratri is on Sun 23 Feb: Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha, 00:03 Mon–00:49 Mon. Chaturdashi: 22:30 to 23:01 Mon.
Chaturdashi ended at 23:01; nishitha is Amavasya. Chaturdashi: 22:30 Sun to 23:01.
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 22:30 on Sun 23 Feb to 23:01 on Mon 24 Feb, so only Sunday night’s nishitha (00:03 Mon–00:49 Mon) falls within it.
